Dollar Tree

Decent Dollar Tree. Better than other locations.
I shop here once in awhile for tape, envelopes, bubble wrap and other mailing stuff.
And if you don’t like what you purchased the only thing you lost is a dollar. I mean come on how cheap can you be? =P

This Dollar Tree is stuck in a corner with few parking spaces nearby. no doubt the rent is cheaper. store small. so slow clerk is stacking the shelves. good work ethnic. no standing around.
buys:
–white cheddar pop corn (1)
pretty tasty, tad salty
–poporn indiana (1)
all natural sea salt.
–got lots of no’s (gluten, transfat, non-​gmo, flavor…_
very subtle. still better than the cancerous tasty popped corns…
take outs:
–service good, just pay and go, no bags…(some places charge 10 cents)…

This place got lots of stuff and great bargains for $ 1.00. Place is well stocked but be weary of what you pay is what you get. For example they have tupperware for $ 1.00 but the thickness are equivalent to 2-​liter soda bottle; they’re probably good for a few use.
Their cleaning product are good but some of their items you have to look carefully or you’ll be fooled. For example, they have a furniture spray cleaner that looks exactly like Pledge, but when you look closer it’s not.
Else for party planning and one time use, you can’t beat it

This Dollar Tree location is decent. There’s plenty of parking, the store itself is of decent size, and it is well-​stocked. It’s a good place to go to when you’re in need of basic items. Stationary supplies, pens, mailing supplies, etc. are some of my favorite things to buy here. It’s also a great place to buy holiday decorations and DIY materials.
Although it’s a great place to buy things for lower prices, it can get very crowded, especially in the evenings. There will be pockets of areas that are completely packed, so there’s no way to get through for a few minutes. When there’s high traffic in the store, there are also long lines, as there are typically only two registers open at a time.
Regardless, I’ve never had any issues at this store, and I will continue to shop here for basic items.

This place is ok. Hell, it’s the Dollar Tree. You can’t be too picky. I wouldn’t buy any food here. In fact, I was surprised to see that they sold food here… like fruit and veggies. A lot of processed food junk, that no one should be consuming anyway. It’s good if you want cheap candy, cards, balloons, party stuff, kids things. I was surprised to see people walking out of the place with bags of items. I was optimistic and grabbed a shopping cart, but only left with a handful of items. Good value for what you get.

My goto spot when I need some cheap, holiday decorations for the house. There’s lots of random household stuff like buckets or aluminum foil as well. This location is also one of the cleaner and more organized dollar stores I’ve ever been to.
My only complaint is that there’s always been only one register open whenever I’ve been here. This means that there’s always a long line just to buy dollar stuff. It’s a minor complaint as it goes by fast but I wish I didn’t have to wait so long.
I visit here from time to time just to check out the random stuff I could buy and because it saves me some money too!

This is a decent dollar store location. I stop by whenever I’m in the area to pick up odds and ends for the house. Their staff is always friendly and helps me whenever I need to locate anything. They have everything you need but you don’t think you need. Would definitely shop again.

you can stock up on basics like tissue and cleaning supplies. at least, that’s why i shop here. if you have a sweet tooth, don’t walk down the candy aisle. you’ll end up spending hella dollars.

Today, the hottest day of the year, so far: It took me 15 minutes to shop and 30 minutes standing in the long, long line. There was one checker working feverishly. We asked her to call another checker and also turn on the air conditioning, as it was well over 85 degrees in the store. She said her supervisor was on the phone and the air conditioning was broken. I asked her if we could at least open the doors to get some fresh air. She said that it was not allowed. We asked her if she had an electric fan. She said they didn’t have one. When the supervisor emerged from the office, she didn’t even apologize for the delay. Also, a shop-​lifter ran out of the store and the supervisor sent the only checker to chase her through the parking lot. I called Dollar Tree’s hotline to complain and had to leave a message on an answering machine, After an hour with no reply, I called in a complaint to OSHA. That poor little checker was almost in tears, having to work so hard with an angry line of customers in the intense heat with no fresh air, and a supervisor who took her leisurely time to help with the long line of customers. Otherwise, it’s a great store with great products. I can’t say I approve of the way they treat their employees.

Honestly, I wasn’t that impressed with this dollar tree.
When I walked in, I already felt a little weird coming inside. The place was fairly organized although there were literally unopened and unstocked shelves in almost each row so that probably means they were lazy to load the shelves with their items. I mean I came there are 12p a few days ago and there were actually a lot of people working there if I remember. With that many employees, they should delegate tasks to restock and make the store look nice. And with that many people working there should’ve been at least someone to greet you at the door, which of course there wasn’t so that was a turn off when I walked in. The vibe I got was very mediocre, I passed by a few of the employees and none of them offered help and one lady just looked at me with disgust as if I was going to be something, rude.
Everything here is like any other dollar tree store but I didn’t find any soy sauce because the other dollar trees had some. So I guess it really does vary with each dollar tree.
Overall, the location is alright, plenty of parking, mediocre employees, not so big selection and atmosphere is average.

What can I get for a buck? Wooo wee a whole lot! On a budget and tight on money? Here’s the place to go!
I’ve came here several times, just to buy my daughter school supplies, wrapping paper, gift bags and cards. I’ve saved plenty of money through the years by coming here. They literally have almost the same stuff as typical grocery stores but only for a dollar. What’s cool is they added frozen items to the store just like target. I haven’t purchased any of their items yet but I just happened to notice they had a variety of frozen food.
This weekend I stocked up on foil, festive trays, gift bags for Xmas, and junk food aka (chips, candy, popcorn) for movie night at my cousins house. In all I paid a whopping 12.00. What a deal breaker!

Initially, I was only going to give this place 2 stars but since I can’t deny that I frequently come here, I feel it’s only fair that I at least give a sold 3 star rating.
I never had a problem with the Dollar Tree before. In fact, I usually love dollar stores, especially when i need to buy storage units or hair accessories, such as hair ties and bobby pins, even nail art pens. A few weeks ago, I went a little too crazy and picked up about 10 of these Maybelline Dream Mousse eyeshadows, which I had heard YouTube beauty gurus raving about in the past. I immediately thought I was grabbing those bad boys for a steal so I grabbed almost every color and rushed home, excited to put them to use. When I got home, I opened one of them, took my finger to swatch the color to test the payoff and… IT WAS HARD AS A ROCK. Mind you, this was a Dream MOUSSE eyeshadow. MOUSSE! I was SO disappointed and upset that I frantically searched for my receipt to check their return policy and to my surprise, the receipt stated NOTHING about their return policy at all. I couldn’t decide whether or not to test the other products I purchased but I figured I wouldn’t risk it and just return them all. I headed back over to the Dollar Tree the following day and the cashier who rung me up the previous day was friendly since she remembered me but who I’m assuming is her manager, came over and told me that THEY ACCEPT NO RETURNS, ONLY EXCHANGES. So there I was. $ 10 poorer, and circling the store for over 20 minutes trying to decide on 10 items to exchange my rock hard MOUSSE eyeshadows for.
Yes, I am sure I will be back when I need more storage units but here’s a tip — DON’T EVEN RISK BUYING THEIR MAKEUP OR FOOD — YOU DON’T KNOW HOW OLD THAT SH/​T IS! Also, don’t purchase something you’re unsure of, especially if you plan on grabbing multiples, unless you don’t mind having store credit.

It’s the dollar store… In Pinole!
What more do you expect?

This dollar store’s inventory is heavily weighted towards food items, and particularly CANDY! Movie size boxes of brand name candy, like Nerds, Sour Patch Kids, Whoppers, Milk Duds, Reese’s Pieces, Butterfinger, Nestle Crunch Bits, Swedish Fish, Dots, Andes Mints, etc. Whenever I find myself in the area, usually post-​In-​N-​Out or Best Buy, I have a habit of stopping by to stock up on sweets, just to have on hand around the house.
At the Pinole Dollar Tree you’ll also find a very robust seasonal section right at the front door when you walk in, be it for Halloween or Xmas, there are tons of decorations, gift bags, boxed card sets, candy, trinkets, costume accessories, and the like.
Good selection of cheap picture frames and pet toys, too.

Everything is a $ ! No one ever bothers me when I go inside; no sales person offers to help me find anything; which would be impossible anyway b/​c everything has been well picked through, but I don’t care. I found several items (paper clips, stickies, magnets, staplers, tacks, etc.) and each is only $ 1.00. I always bring cash so that I’m in and out.
