Dollar Tree

When this Dollar Tree first opened it was a great shop to get some frilly knick-​knacks and hair accessories, impulse toys, and other things you probably don’t need. But over a few years the place has gone down the drain.
I visited this Dollar Tree about one week ago and the place was messy and disorganized with only one cashier working. There was no music playing and some of the items seemed to be low stocked. It was a sad sight.
Everything here really is only $ 1. That said, some things are low-​quality so be careful what you purchase. There is food, snacks, dog toys, car cleaning supplies – pretty much anything you could think of.
I hope this Dollar Tree comes back to life real soon. Hire more cashiers and put some country music on!

No matter what time of day I come here there is always a long line and 1 cashier smh really!!!

I still can’t get over the fact that every thing here costs $ 1. I know «dollar» is in the name and that dollar stores are all around, but seriously, it still blows my mind.
I can find sooooo many necessary things here for cheap; things it’s totally okay to pay a dollar for because you don’t NEED super-​high quality. Like… Gift wraps, tissue paper, and gift bags! I know Pier 1 has those fancy, glittery, vibrant bags for like $ 6 and up, but that’s so expensive for something you’re transporting a gift in! Even Walgreens and Hobby Lobby gift bags seem to be around $ 3-​$ 4. But at the Dollar Tree, my friends, every gift bag — no matter it’s size — is $ 1. I bought so many bags here the other day for Christmas, and no they’re not thin little plain, ugly bags. They had some great options and a few even had glitter! Lots of wrapping paper here as well, especially during the holidays. Cute prints like snowmen, brightly colored trees, reindeer, Santa, and my favorite — little Christmas birds in swirly trees. There isn’t as big of a selection here, if course, but that’s made up for by how much you save. I probably bought 12 rolls (I’m being quite giving this year!!)
I also walked out of this sweet store with a ton of tape (the good kind that’s totally clear), tissue paper, and a few awesome decorations. I got a pair of gold, sparkly Christmas trees (about 8 inches tall) that look just like something you could find at World Market or Pier 1.
The dollar store is also great for cleaning supplies, paper towels and toilet paper, cotton balls, plastic forks/​plates/​cups, cards, candy bars, other non-​perishable foodstuff, stocking stuffers, and all sorts of little trinkets.
This location in particular is very clean and comfortable. The staff I’ve interacted with so far have been friendly, efficient, and talkative, and you get in and out of here fast!

This Dollar Tree is clean, well-​lit, and seemingly stocks one of everything. So far so good, right?
I was looking for a lint brush to remove dog hair from my clothes, and figured I’d try dollar stores.
The good:
They definitely had them. It was easy to find lint brushes and lint rollers both. Check-​out was fast and smooth, and my brush was actually a dollar (and tax).
The bad:
The first time I tried to actually use my new lint brush, it left little red sparkles all over my clothes. That’s… kind of cool, I guess, but not what I intended?
So I’m zero-​for-​one with Dollar Tree. I get that you have to check your expectations with products this cheap, but I really did want to get one full use out of it. Just one.
Other Unilocalers seem to have had better luck. Good luck!

This Dollar Tree is in better shape than many I’ve been to, and the selection is wider in every department.
This particular review will be about gardening supplies. This $ Tree has an awesome selection of gardening supplies! During my last trip here I left with two pairs of gardening gloves and a sturdy trowel (complete with ergonomic handle) with ruled sides (so I can measure the depth of holes I dig). In addition to these goodies, you’ll find small (probably 8 inches) plastic containers, small bags of potting soil, tiny clay pots, wire garden decorations, tiny planters, small bronze metal tubs, small watering cans, and a few small gray hanging planters.

Everything here actually cost $ 1, unlike other dollar stores. This particular location has a wider and bigger selection of items to choose from. My little sister’s favorite store, mainly because it fits her budget. haha
