Dollar Tree

The store had the items I came in to buy in stock and easy to locate. The staff was friendly and helpful. The store was a little messy.

They keep everything well stocked here, unlike other Dollar Tree stores, and they stay pretty well on top of things most of the time. It’s only the day after Easter and all the Easter candy has already been organized into one area, marked down, and the old shelves cleaned off and ready for the next seasonal stuff.
One complaint is that there was only one register «open» but zero cashiers actually ringing up customers with seven customers waiting. That was a bit annoying. The one cashier had to go get a manager for some help, but the manager was too busy to come help, so the cashier did come back and start ringing people up again. She was still very friendly though!

If you’re looking for quality products, you’re forgetting that this place is a DOLLAR store. Nothing here is of high quality. What you will find is a bunch of stuff for a dollar. I give it 4 stars because it’s exactly what I expect out of a dollar store.

The people that work here are extremely unprofessional. It’s not that I expect much… I think the Dollar Tree is such a low class place that you should just go in, grab what you need, and split… And $ 1 for most things in that store is actually an over-​charge if you consider how much less quantity-​wise, or the low quality of a certain product, in comparison to an extra $ 0.50 at Walmart. Or even the fact that you can get things for $ 0.99 in a real store.
Anyways, back to their customer service. It’s not like they have a stellar staff in any of these stores, but this location is especially horrible. They have conversations between each other that are incredibly unprofessional. I really could care less about a cashier’s life, but then to be forces to hear about it when all I’m trying to do is give them money? I call BS.
Then when we were there yesterday, they opened an extra register. This blonde girl yelled that she could help the next customer, so I politely waited in my line and let the lady in front of me go over to that register. Hello. NEXT CUSTOMER. That would’ve been her, not me. And since she went over, it only made sense that I stayed in my line. My boyfriend and I put 16 items up at the register, and then the blonde girl called out again, «I can take another customer over here.» No one cared.
She lost her patience pretty quick and added, «No one? NO ONE? Alright. Offer’s gone» and stormed off into the manager’s office. I sincerely hope she’s not a manager. She can have a title, but probably would start with a «C», not an «M». She honestly waited a max of three minutes before she huffed and puffed and left. Lady, I loaded 16 items up onto the register. If I needed to grab all those things and bring them over into your line, you would’ve left before I could’ve done that. I don’t know how many items the person waiting in the other line had up on the register, but come on.
Sorry if we offended you by being content in the lines we were in. My stuff was already at the register and the person in front of me was all rung up, just paying. If you’re really that bitter that no one wanted to pay at your register, maybe you should try being less of the person you are so people will want to approach you. Or if you really have to be that bitter, keep it on the inside. You won’t look like a bratty teenage girl as much as somone that just hates their job.

⁵⁰⁄₅₀ on this place. It’s close by, I get what I need, and it’s of course cheap. What really irks me is that I sometimes find items that were once there not there anymore. The employees are also pretty snooty. I would hate my job too if I worked there but you shouldn’t let your anger reflect on the customers. I should know cause I work at gateway Fred Meyers lol
I also find their bathroom out of order constantly. Not that I relieve myself in there unsanitary bathroom though. I rarely go in there anymore since no one cleans it.
I’ve also been finding most of there items getting smaller. I went to buy my lotion there and now they sell travel sized bottles of it! Really? I also am saddened that there’s no more tampons there. I really hate spending almost $ 6 on a box if them.
Guess dollar tree is just a customer hater, huh?

The Dollar Tree is seriously a source of internal struggle for me. When visting, my inner dialogue often goes something like this:
«Wow, look at all this crap! And it’s all only $ 1 each! I could buy so much of it!»
«But it’s all a bunch of crap! Plastic crap. It’s not even worth the $ 1 you’re going to pay for it!»
«But… but you can’t get ANYTHING for a dollar any more. Except a dance at the rack.»
«Seriously Don, don’t buy this crap. It’ll just end up in the landfill or floating on the huge Pacific Garbage Patch, and you won’t even get a dollar’s worth of joy out of it. And once you buy it, they’ll continue to make more of it!»
«But look! I can get disposable tablecloths for a DOLLAR! And these crappy sparkly sunglasses? A DOLLAR! It’s all a DOLLAR!»
«Don, I can’t take you anywhere.»
Yeah, I generally have to avoid the Dollar Tree. It makes my wanton childlike sensibilities take over. I want to buy all this cheap shit because it’s cheap enough to make me forget that most of it is shit. Disposable shit. It’s what’s wrong with the world today… so much disposable crap.
But 3-​stars because it’s SOOOOOOOO cheap!
