I know everything is a dollar but the service BLOWS! I just went to pick up a couple things and I was waiting at the register for almost 5 minutes and then the clerk came up and told me she was going to ring this other lady up first because she was helping her on the floor. This woman had 10 items and triple that in questions still. The clerk still ignored me when it was my turn to help this other lady that barged up with a question about returns. I had two fricken items. The whole thing took forever and really made me upset. They need to teach their employees guest service 101. I’ll still shop there because they stock the cheap stuff I like, but I hate going there because the service is always the same. BAD.

I went to this Dollar Tree location on May 21st2014. It was the absolute worst service. Chris was our cashier and he was terrible. He was rude. He had a frown on his face the entire time, seemed completely bothered to help us, and was literally throwing our items into the bag! He handed us one receipt, but we had two. We told him that he had not given us the second receipt and so he sharply told us that he had put it in a random bag. When we first came into the store, we asked Lisa how to exchange some items and she did tell us, but in a very harsh tone. Then as we went around the store we could hear her talking. She had just been so unkind to us and now she was being super over-the-top polite to others. It was incredibly artificial and nauseating. Basically, to sum it up, it was not a pleasant experience.

For dollar store it is good. I get gift bags here and I have picked up some hand towels for my camping gear. most of the stuff is cheap cheap cheap… but a great place to get candles(the size I get range from $ 5 – 10 a candle here it is a buck). When my friends kid was moving out on her own we stopped off here and picked her out glasses, dishes and cooking utensils … since this was her first apartment with roommates… we chose to get things that if if they got trashed… would not be a waste of money lol. We walked out of there with like a hundred bucks of stuff for her apartment including dish towels, baskets, trash bags, kitchen utensils, pates, glasses and a few odds and ends like candles, holders, a couple vases. is this somewhere you turn to get high quality stuff… no… but a great place for starter items, candles, gift bags, stocking stuffers for small kids, etc…

A dollar store is a dollar store… kind of. This one is kept pretty clean, although you can only get so much there. Sometimes I go in and notice they don’t stay on top of their inventory very strictly, so they are out of the one thing I stopped in for. Other than that, they have some hit and miss seasonal décor, an awesome kitchen supply area, and decent merchandise for everything in between. Associates are usually very pleasant, although they don’t always have enough people working. Compared to other locations, though, they are awesome!

it’s a dollar tree. this location isn’t too different from most– well, perhaps a tad bit smaller? it is what it is. cheap stuff. some of it is worth getting some of it ain’t. you have to be a smart shopper to figure out what’s worth buying. some stuff is also way too junky and not worth a $ 1
