This is probably my least favorite of the chain, and I think I have been to them all, at least the ones in Sonoma County. Store is never ‘clean’ not that I’m expecting neat and tidy, but I’d like the floors to not look like a herd of people trampled them and hadn’t been washed. Hard to find items here, the logistic of how things are laid out is beyond awful. They do have the usual staple items the dollar store carries, but not much more.

Wow! I was able to buy about 95% of my oldest son’s birthday supplies(Food and drinks, Decorations, Goodie bags, etc) here and only ended up with a total of $ 20! The great thing about the dollar store is they can’t overprice anything here, because everything has to be a dollar! This will be the greatest 16th birthday ever!!!

Was there yesterday to pick up some hand sanitizers and they had one checkout line that seem to be moving slowly. By the time i was the next one to ring up, I realized the cashier was not being friendly to the patron in front of me but didn’t make out what the ruckus was about. When it was my turn, I tried to move the item separator to the person behind me as our stuff was very close to each other but the cashier place her hand on it as to not to touch it… strange. It was the only separator there so I mention that this line needed more but she didn’t want to hear it. Then she took the longest time trying to figure out how to add .10 for a bag cause apparently she forgot to add it during the initial items check out and was holding up the line. I try to resolve this by placing the coins on the counter that she ignored and continue to hold up the line trying to figure out how to ring up for the bag. Finally out of haste, she just deduct the dime from the 5 I gave her that I didn’t know beforehand so I can get the bag. So I ended up with a .20 cents bag, no big deal which I should of just told her to forget about it but I doubt she would have listen to what i had to say anyways. What was a big deal is her holding up the line trying to figure this out along with her strange demeanor toward customers. People like that should stock items, not work as cashiers!

This is a clean store that is well organized. I like that they carry Granny Goose chips here. You can also find good deals on cards and cookies. It is close to Grocery Outlet, so both stores are worth checking out before moving on to your regular grocery store.

Another place you need to call before you go as they change their hours more times than I can recall. Originally they were open till 10 and then it was nine during the winter and now on Sunday they close at eight, so call ahead so you don’t waste gas and time like I did.

Great store with a great selection and real nice seasonal items. There is a bit of a staffing issue and it takes them a long time to restock basic items. If you ask to speak to a manager all employees claim to be said manager. I go here fairly regularly and most times there is a long line with only one checker and/or an employee talking on their cell or talking to each other or outside smoking and not working.

I really like this store. I was afraid of it coming to town and bringing issues to the downtown area but I was wrong, it hasn’t at all! Always able to find things in here. Their food selection is really good. All dated correctly and organized. The manager Melissa is very friendly and helpful. The only comment I would say is that I was in there the other day and their was a staff member(man wearing a bright blue shirt), angry throwing a fit and just walked out on another employee. This cause a large line and the woman employee was just telling people to kindly wait. It took forever, I saw people just put their stuff down and walk out. I know this wouldn’t of happened if Melissa or even Silvia was there, just hope they read this and get the guy talked too pronto.

Not sure if I’ve ever been to a Dollar Tree before, but after my teacher friend led me in here(«They always have stuff for the kids!»), I’m a fan. The«teacher» section looked like everything I ever wanted as a child(stickers, games, workbooks, etc.), and the rest of the store was alternately a grocery store, a drug store, and a housewares store. One stop shopping for a buck– heck yeah!

A brand new store. Clean, organized and it was easy to find everything. We loved it. The staff was professional and very courteous. Check it out.
