Dollar Tree

OK. Let me say I really like Dollar Tree. The issue is with this particular store. I have been to many of the other stores and this store is the most disorganized store I have even seen! There are always empty shelves, boxes in the aisles, items out of place, etc.
I am surprised that the management doesn’t do something about this store!

So I never thought I would be writing a review for a dollar store, BUT I have recently starting shopping at Dollar Tree and I have to say I am impressed! First of all, you can’t beat the convenience of the smaller layout and the fact that you can find just about anything all for a buck! The gift bags/​wrapping paper, holiday decorations, mylar balloons, teaching supplies, name brand toothpaste and toothbrushes, storage bins, etc. are really great. The Dollar Tree has become so popular that there are countless blogs, You Tube videos, and ideas on Pinterest for what is recommended to buy. It has become very trendy regardless of someone’s economic circumstances to save money, so DT has really stepped up their game and now carries a lot of name-​brand items and improved on their own in-​house brand. It for sure can be a hit-​or-​miss, but for the most part you can always find something there. I have also found the cashiers to be really helpful if you need to find something. It tends to be very busy on the weekends and looks a bit picked-​over, but if you are able to go there on a weekday morning it’s much quieter and the shelves are well-​stocked.

Picked up a bunch of school supplies here for the Unilocal donation event and found the store to be neatly laid out, organized and just about exactly the same as every other Dollar Tree I’ve been to.
I do like Dollar Tree. This is the chain where everything really is a dollar (though some things are 50 cents).

You got to love a place where everything is a dollar.
I throw a ton of events. I always stop by here to browse and see if there’s anything here that would make sense for my theme. Some days are better than others. You can get cheap table cloths and party needs here. There is also a Party City a few doors down. Stop here first… then venture over to PC for the rest.
For a Dollar Tree, it’s fairly organized and in order. Some of these places can look like a bomb went off inside the store. The workers are pretty friendly.
If you can’t find what you need, there’s a Family Dollar less than 30 seconds away.

The location on Freedom is much larger.
The one further down on South is brighter.

Closest store to our hotel. Just needed some milk and snacks for stay. Ended up buying a few other really fun items.

Had everything I wanted, but the service is described as SLOW! 4 employees standing around and only one cash register was open! I can only imagine the quality of service during the holiday season!

I walked into this store today on a mission. I needed to spend upwards of $ 600 on toys for an Operation Christmas Child show box packing party. Needless to say, my new friends at Dollar Tree were up for the challenge.
Since I was asking for such large quantities, the store manager was the best bet. He took me into the storage space, outfitted me with quite a few boxes, and explained that he has been managing the store for 3 weeks now. Having read other Unilocal reviews, I noticed the store looked fantastic (much cleaner and better stocked than I expected). He has obviously been working hard to get the place in shape. All the employees were friendly and helpful, and the manager really went out of his way to make my experience a positive one.
When I finished choosing my 600 items, I had filled 2 regular carts and a giant stocking cart piled high with cardboard boxes. The manager scanned my purchases and helped me pack everything into the back of my car. I couldn’t have asked for better service.
If you’re in the neighborhood and need a couple of items, stop into this Dollar Tree. They are doing a stellar job and have a plentiful selection of toys (I’m quite familiar with that area now!!).

Some great service in here on my visit. Like the fact that at a dollar store everything is a dollar unlike most dollar stores. Well lit store everything was easy to find and shelves were in order so I will visit again.

Even though this Dollar Tree has a sticky quality to it, it still fills the void of the necessary dollar store near SouthPark. As always, every item is $ 1. And likely made in China.
The pros: It’s a big olé store with just about everything — cleaning supplies, toiletries, cheap eats, party décor, kitchen goods, toys, school supplies. You can find some brand name goods if you look close enough… I spied some Banana Boat sunscreen that’s at least $ 5 in a regular pharmacy. Plus, the staff is really, really nice. The lady who rang me up should be nominated as one of the cheeriest and friendly cashiers I’ve run into a while.
The cons: Generally, you get what you pay for. But y’all should know that anyway. And, as mentioned, this store location is most certainly not the cleanest… I almost wanted to take a wet wipe and clean out the shopping basket before I put my goods in there. You’ll want a bit of hand sanitizer afterwards. Just get some… it’s a $ 1.
Overall, I know I’ll be back for table cloths, shower cleaner or whatever else I come to need… it’s all $ 1.
