Dollar Tree

All these Dollar Tree stores apparently have identical merchandise, though all the isles in this store are reversed from the one in Everett.
I still don’t understand how they can sell 11×14″ mirrors, multiple toothbrush packs, makeup, and foam board; all always a score for $ 1. I mean, how do they do that in 2014?
Right now, they have rows of stuff for Halloween, and it is only the 1^st week of September.
Off and on, for months, most Dollar Tree stores have glass-​dome complete ceiling light fixtures, with bulb, for the $ 1. These are at least worth $ 35 each. The fixture has those GU24 bulbs, which are strange-​looking, but widely available on line for like $ 2.50.

I went here hoping to find tab dividers for my school book and was able to find them. And 10 of them for a dollar! I also bought a pack of gum. This is a pretty good Dollar tree comoared to some of the ones I have been to. From what I saw it is clean and they the shelves decently stocked from what I saw in the few minutes I was there. 5 stars when they add the freezer section. lol

I came in to get a couple of things today around 2pm, and only two check out lanes were open with twenty or more customers in each line. And when I asked the poor and exhausted cashier after waiting a long time in line why, she said the management cut employee hours. This is a ridiculous way to not only treat your employees but your customers as well. This management needs to come in a see what his/​her stupidity results in, and fix it or find someone else who will.

Dollar Tree is my neighborhood discount store. I don’t recommend buying everything here because honestly, some things should cost more than a dollar.
The service over the last few years has improved. Staff members keep the store cleaner than in previous years, try harder to get folks checked out in a timely manner, and have been friendlier in general.
Some of my favorite buys are: kitchen pantry staples, storage containers, tissue paper, gift bags, party favors for kids, and some seasonal items. I always buy Goo Gone for $ 1 and use it to remove all the sticky adhesive in my house. Coloring books are a great deal if you need a way to keep little ones busy. Serving spoons, eating utensils, and napkins for your picnic needs are the perfect price. I don’t recommend $ 1 paper plates — you get what you pay for and you’ll be sorry about those. Mylar balloons are the best deal in town. Your selection is limited but really, who doesn’t love a huge bundle of balloons? You may have to wait awhile to get it done; they may be out of helium at times; but if it all works out, you’ll feel like you saved tons of cash!
The store has a cold case in the back with food and honestly, I don’t even look there. I never buy health and beauty items.
Overall, I like having Dollar Tree close to my house and it serves a particular need.

Two of my favorite neighborhood stores are right next to each other, Dollar Tree and Grocery Outlet. Aside from the obvious low prices, I love the Dollar Tree because it has a wide selection of regular household items as well as fun seasonal decorations, like Christmas, Autumn, and Valentine’s. The cashier staff is always really friendly. The clientele who shop there runs the gamut from regular folk, families, to sketchy people — it is on Aurora Ave after all…

It will be a long time before I enter this store again. I’d quickly found the items I needed, and saw there were two cashiers at their registers, although all registers had their lights off. One cashier signaled that she wasn’t open and that I should go to the other line, which I did. The customer at my register had a lot of items, and the air inside the store was still and VERY warm, so it wasn’t a comfortable wait. But this cashier was working as quickly as she could. There was someone in line ahead of me, and we’d been waiting several minutes. As we stood there, customers walked up to the register that was «closed», and that cashier rung them up, and out they went, no waiting at all (perhaps they were family, but that shouldn’t be allowed). Then she helped the next person, and the next, and still, my line waited. The woman in front of me sighed and left the line, and I suspect she put her items back on the shelf.
On my way out, I stopped to talk to the cashier who had ignored waiting customers. I excused myself, and said «when there are customers already waiting in line, you really should wait on them first before you take customers who just walk up to your register. «Especially when you waived them away to another register, but I didn’t say that. She replied, rather snappishly, «MA’AM! I am OFF.THE.CLOCK! I am OUT. I AM OUT!» Wow. She could have diffused my annoyance about having to wait in an overheated store while she waited on people out of order, but she gave me attitude. She may have had a reason, or she could have just admitted she screwed up and apologized, but she didn’t.
Whatever her reasons, I am done with the Bitter Lake Dollar Tree for the foreseeable future, if not forever. I will probably visit the new one on Aurora, where the air conditioner works, the store and sidewalks are clean and tidy, and I’ve yet to encounter a rude employee.

Everything’s a Dollar, what’s not to love?
The location is shady as hell. And I’ve encounter some crazies shopping at this Dollar Tree.
During my last visit the cashier did not say one word to me. See didn’t acknowledge me what so ever.
Darling, I know you work at a Dollar Tree store and probably make minimum wage but don’t be bitter at least you have a job. Saying anything to your customers is better then nothing.
Also, while I was roaming though the store I over heard a employee say to a customer that «I hate it here». EEKK!!!
I loaded my cart up with my dollar treasures and got the heck outta there.

Not a great selection but it definitely fits the budget. I found this place last year and make occasional trips here. Theyre all over the area. Great for a budget.

Are you kidding me??? You show up on Easter/​Passover weekend and complain that there isn’t anything left.
It is a great dollar store. Know why? Because everything is… wait for it… a DOLLAR. Not a one fifty, not one ninety seven but a DOLLAR. As far as I have found it’s the only one that really just charges a dollar for every and anything there. The people I’ve dealt with have always been nice and the selection (if I don’t wait till the last minute) is great.

I take back all the times I have said, «Dollar stores in Seattle SUCK.» I’ve been known to hit a dollar store every now and then when I need… well…crap. I mean, who wants to spend lots of money on crap?
After making an appointment with someone on Craigslist who was selling 75 champagne flutes, I was almost out the door when she texted me that she had sold all but 13 of the flutes and was I still interested. Yeah, like I’m going to drive all the way to Maple Valley for 13 champagne glasses.
While running errands later in the day, I stopped in the Dollar Tree on a whim. Not expecting to find anything – ’cause most dollar stores I’ve visited in this city suck – I was pleasantly surprised to see 75 champagne flutes on the shelves. Not only that, but two staff members helped find boxes for me so I wouldn’t smash my new breakable booty to smithereens on the way home. Even more special? Employee «Walter» actually grabbed some newspaper and spent 20 minutes helping me pack the glasses into the boxes before I checked out. He rocked.
Thanks, Dollar Tree on Aurora, for showing me not all dollar stores in Seattle suck.

It’s a regular old dollar store. I needed some cheap Kraft paper so I thought I’d swing by and check them out. Mission successful but not without the sonic assault of tantrum-​throwing children.
I don’t know if I’d return unless I needed cheap party goods. They have those in plentiful amounts and cheap Charleston Chews! Score.
No one seemed to pay attention to the directional arrows in the parking lot. Ironic since a few stores down, I’ve never had problems at Wendel’s.

not quite sure why this place is so highly rated. i came on a saturday afternoon right before stopping by grocery outlet for some food.
it was passover/​easter weekend. the easter selection was lacking severely and the passover selection was non-​existent.
there are some decent deals, but overall not too terribly impressed. i was tempted to get a glass mug, but ended up leaving only with a bag of red vines.

I usually go here when I need cheap party supplies or scrapbooking stuff… back when I scrapbooked.
Located on Aurora near the Grocery Outlet, Ross, Rite Aid, and a Bally’s.it just looks sketch.
One thing to know is, if you go here and you want to buy something… you really really gotta want to buy it because ultimately there will be a large wait for at least 10mins. I’ve come and gone a few times after seeing how long the line is. They have everything — toys, some clothes, toiletries, some food, cleaning supplies, automotive, wedding stuff, cards, etc etc. True to its word, everything IS as dollar (or less).
Plenty of parking, there’s also an Outback Steakhouse and Burger King sharing the lot. A new senior housing division opened up, so do drive through carefully!

if you like to overdecorate for holidays with tacky crap you will never form an emotional attachment to, this is your place.
If you need some cheap stocking stuffers or birthday gifts that say «I tried… kind of», this is your place.
If you don’t mind lead-​based paints on your dinnerware or childrens’ toys, this is your place.
If you want a fake rose inside a resin egg-​shaped thingy on a rickety plastic stand that looks EXACTLY like a butt plug, you can have one of mine… I bought 3 last year.
Bonus points for occupying the primo real estate between Cross Dress for Less and The Groc’ Out.
Bravo, Dollar Tree. Bravo.

I buy a lot of stuff here for the child care center where I work.
There is a pretty good selection. I am a fan of the plastic baskets, sponges, spray bottles, and random things that can be used for art.
I have never had an overly friendly cashier, but they are always decent.
Sometimes it can be a bit messy and disorganized, but it’s a Dollar Tree, for god’s sake, so I don’t complain.

This is the best dollar store around, only you wouldn’t know it cause it doesn’t smell like a dollar store. (You know that typical order from all the scented stuff they usually carry cause ¾ of their merchandise is scented for the little old lady market.)
I went in to find covered drinking cups /​glasses. For some inane reason, the Health Department requires that we use covered cups with a straw for any drinks near the food prep area. Everywhere else they cost 7 to 10 dollars. The cost at Dollar Tree — 1 dollar.
It’s fall and time to decorate — Michaels wants some disgusting price for fake fall leaves. Guess how much a 6 foot strand is at the Dollar Tree? Give up? How about a dollar. And Halloween stuff for a single buck. OK, you kinda gotta to watch out, cause what you are looking at might be only 88 cents at Big Lots and here it’s guess what? Yup, a buck.
This dollar store has nice dishes, glasses, wine glasses, lots of neat stuff for a buck. It has the other dollar stores in the area beat, hands down. You gotta stop by this dollar store, but be sure you bring your buck (plus tax, of course).
