Dollar Tree

Dolla-Dolla-Bill-Ya’ll… Everything here at the Dollar Tree is $ 1 or less!
I’m a baller on a budget and being a baller on a budget requires how to work sh*t out with what you have. No shame in my game because you gotta be real stupid not to shop around and be smart about it.
The Dollar Tree well this place is a HOT mess! This place makes your local Walmart look well organized but still has the same clientele you’d find at any Walmart especially the LakeHOOD Walmart. People acting like a fool. Most of the time everyone isn’t acting a fool but you still have that one person that wants to go from 0 to 100 real quick.
You will find at the Dollar Tree name brand and generic items all for a $ 1 or less! I mean there are items that you’ll be like «nah maaan I can’t» but for the most part you know what is cheap and not worth getting.
Employees are pretty nice at this location. Expect long lines tho because they will sometimes only have 1 or 2 cashiers available and they have to scan each item. There’s always somebody that has a shopping cart filled with a gang of useless items and it does make you say to yourself «ugh, why she need all that for!?» Like that one time this lady bought a lot of packaged hotdogs from the Dollar Tree. Yeah, I’d skip on the $ 1 packaged hotdogs that you can buy at the Dollar Tree. I mean that stuff was discounted for a reason but I guess sometimes you gotta add meat to your packaged ramen noodles because the cost of Spam in a can is no joke! lol
Some tips!
Buy your birthday, gift wrapping, paper tissues, balloons, & party supplies here! Walmart may have your party supply necessities but the Dollar Tree has ‘em cheaper! They have party & special occasion balloons that you can get filled up with helium at this location! Get those «Get Well Soon» balloons for your buddy who’s staying at the hospital because he decided it was funny to insert the air gun into his ear and see what would happen.
If you grew up in the 90s your going to find the candies you grew up buying! Cry Babies, Big League Chews, War Heads, Bubble Jugs, Now&Laters, Pop Rocks, Jaw Breakers! I can go on and on! This is the place to find all those candies from the 90s!
For ya’ll stuck in the 90s and still own the flip phone RAZOR, a pager with the chain, and or still have dial-​up internet service you can purchase the local newspaper (The News Tribune) for 50 cents on weekdays and $ 1 on Sundays.
If your traveling and need some personal items come here for your health & beauty supplies!
They have name-​brand & generic health & beauty supplies! I bought all my first aid supplies to make a first aid kit for hiking here at the dollar store. Plus, there’s travel sized items that are TSA compliant for air travel.
Cleaning supplies! Sometimes my OCD kicks in and I can find all my OCD supplies here at the Dollar Store for a $ 1 so I can clean my pad on the low-​low!
Mailing supplies! School supplies! Cheaper here! Same brand name stuff!
Overall, I like spending time at my local Dollar Tree. Exceptional value! Finding a bunch of useless stuff that you probably don’t really need but you still end up getting it because you gotta have it.
Don’t worry about bumping into your friend or co-​worker! He/​She is probably thinking the same about you… «Smart shopper and or this motherf*cker is broke as f*ck!»

Stopped by here quickly for something to drink. Store is quite big compared to some other Dollar Trees. Well organized and everything stocked up. Quick check-​out.

Nothing spectacular but also meets every expectation. I used to get about half a pound of trail mix with peanuts and m&ms for, you guessed it, one dollar. To balance that, I bought a solar powered light to stick in the lawn and it worked only for a few hours. I never returned it because it costs about that much in gas and I didn’t save the receipt.
My big question is, what happens to all the dollar stores when inflation hits? Some serious name changing.

An awesome neighborhood dolllar tree! it is close to a lot of different thing! The staff can be nice on some days, depends on who is working! They have a nice selection of different goodies! I always come here when i came home to visit!

I came here looking for some candles and was shocked that I actually found some.
I’m not knocking the dollar stores but sometimes the quality can be less than stellar.
The store was absolutely packed and I was a bit surprised that there were only 2 clerks working the entire line. There were about 20 people ahead of me.
Eventually we got the lines cleared but it just felt as if everyone was moving in slow motion.
Can be good for some things but definitely have to do quality checks. The old saying is you get what you pay for. and it definitely rings true here.
