This place is great for the Holidays and Holiday-themed parties. I came here during the Christmas season to pick up some Santa hats, and they also had some cute Reindeer ears that I decided to purchase. These decorations tend to come in packs of 2 or more, so you're getting the most out of your $1. I came here tonight to pick up decorations for a Mardi Gras-themed party my friend is hosting. I was able to get beaded necklace packs of 6 or 3 (depending on the type) for $1, and I also picked up some foil masks (came in packs of 6) and feathered masks (singles). The customer service won me over tonight. When I was purchasing my items, the cashier noticed that one of the necklaces was broken, and said I could pick out a different set. I was very impressed that she had saved me some disappointment over a broken item! This is a far more convenient option than a Party City. I'll continue to come here for my party needs. read more

It's all about attitude and customer service. I waited the cashier didn't even attempt to bag my items. Never asked anything. So at the end I asked oh you guys don't bag. Her response was based on customers with their own bags don't like it. Well try asking she didn't even attempt to help. It's the simple things that make great employees. read more

I friggin love this place. Ya the service is kind of nonexistant, but thats why things are able to be stocked for a dollar. You can get 4 rolls of toilet paper for a dollar...laundry detergent...multiple towels...you name it! Its not like the 99 cent store where some things arent even a dollar. read more

My "go to" place for kleenex tissues ($1 a box) And greeting cards (50 cents each and generally good quality). - albeit at times I will still go to Hallmark for that perfect card. Its also a good place to go if you want to have holiday themed window clings - why does my cat always try to take them down as soon as I put up though (lol). and when its holiday stocking tiime - you can usually find lots of stocking stuffers for yep the inexpensive price of $1.00 each. read more

This place is awesome! The store is really clean and well organized. I found everything I was looking for and of course tons of things that I didn't know I wanted or needed. I came for Christmas decorations and they had tons! There's also a large variety of home, beauty, grocery, kitchen, school supplies, cleaning supplies and toys. The cashiers are also really quick to ring you up when there's a long line. So as a college student, I give this place 5 stars for loading me up on everything I need well within my budget. read more

This dollar store is average overall. This is a medium sized dollar tree that has a variety of items. It had storage units, office supplies, house hold items, snack food, some frozen foods, refrigerated food, toys, and more. I am a teacher and dollar tree is a teachers best friend :) This location in particular can be a bit more unorganized that other locations and there are less thrifty finds. The lines are always very long, usually only one person is ringing at the register. Overall, I have been to other locations which are larger and have more great finds. Most of the time I can find what I am looking for, however it can be very hit or miss. This is the largest dollar tree in Milpitas, but the one off Alumn rock is much bigger and had a lot more. read more

Woo hoo, it's the 15th, got paid, feeling good. I'm a baller so let's go shopping....at the dollar tree store!! I love this store! I can find a lot of useful household items for CHEAP! What can you get for $1 now a days besides a McChicken (but I'm staying away from those for the sake of humanity). On my recent trip, I found these trays that are PERFECT for carrying cupcakes that I bake for parties or get-togethers. And since they're only a dollar, I won't need to shed a tear when I leave the tray behind. Also found boston baked beans for $1. Omg I love those like a fat kid loves cake (that's the saying right?). Anyway, if you're on a budget, go "shopping" here and you'll be surprised how many items you can get for 100 pennies. read more

A good place to go to get a lot of items you need for cheap, such as kitchen supplies, laundry supplies, dishes, toys, frozen foods, cleaning supplies, etc... The quality that you get is also pretty good for the price. You can even find some decent seasonal decorations from time to time. Don't expect to find any name brand stuff though. If you are on a budget, and you need things such as these items this is a good place to go. A major downside of this place is they always seem to be understaffed, so they usually only have one cashier open, and you can end up getting into a line that has 10 or more people and wait for a long time to pay. read more

The Dollar Store is pretty great because almost everything is $1 and it's quality is pretty decent. This particular branch is located conveniently at McCarthy Ranch, right next to Walmart. The store is of a decent size and offers many items from food to cards to decorations and school supplies. I came here to look for some birthday decorations and supplies like balloons and candles. I was able to find them pretty easily and I was in and out of the store in about 5 to 10 minutes. I didn't really see anyone working except for the cashier. Maybe the other staff members were in the back or something. My experience here was pretty great and I would definitely be back if I needed to run some errands. The quality of the items from the Dollar Tree Store is decent to me and I don't see why you wouldn't choose to pay for less for something like balloons as compared to paying like $4 for only 15 balloons (one color) at superstores like Party City. I got a pack of 25 multi-colored balloons for $1 and I was pretty satisfied! read more

Just discovered Dollar Tree in Milpitas, Macarthy Ranch Shopping center. Went to the shopping center to go to another store then my boyfriend said, "hey let's stop in at the Dollar Tree store." He left with about 6 bags of frozen, refrigerated, canned goods & several cleaning supplies for about $35. Pretty good variety of frozen foods. They even sell single servings of beef, pork chops, scrimps, etc. for a $1 each. Girl at the check out told me the store just opened about a month ago. I'm sure this store is going to be packed once people find out about it. Of course there are hundreds of different types of items but my boyfriend Carl was only interested in buying groceries. My best guestimate is that he probably saved about $40-$50 compared to if he bought the same items at Safeway or Lucky. read more

Pretty Big. Surprised with how clean this place was. All the workers I saw were kept busy doing their jobs but I also noticed that they were happy drop what they were doing to help customers. They were like HAPPY :3 Thank you to the Nova, an asian man, and another man but with long hair, and the women working in the back! Yall were great! I will def come again because of yall. They have a bunch of great stuff, everything was organized and packed well. This store has changed what I thought about DT in general. Beats the one in Sunnyvale!! read more

It's always a little smile on your face when you find something worth a buck... that you think you need...but not really...something good to have..but not really..... And then you have all these things in your little basket... only to find out the line is ridiculously long.... and while waiting in line...you realize you don't really need everything in the little basket. and then you leave...empty handed. read more

Great items for a great price. I don't know why I would pay full price for anything again hahaha

There is a dollar store right next to where I live, but I rather make the drive to Milpitas. This dollar store is clean and always stocked. I like to test out items and compare them to actual brand names. 8 times out of 10 the dollar store proves me wrong! Yes technically you pay 1.10 with tax, but come on now... it's a buck! Helpful tips: I have tried out most of their cleaning products and I am very impressed with the effectiveness. read more

Clean. Well stocked. Even had Disney stuff :-) But... They are busy and staff is a bit blah. Not to be mean, I know it may not be a dream job, but a smile or eye contact... Please! read more

I'm always around this area and I never once thought about coming to this place. My friend Mark introduced me to this place a few weeks ago. We came here to buy some supplies for a BBQ and I must say that I was pretty impressed! They have a wide selection of items from frozen foods to toothbrushes and toothpaste all for a dollar! When I walked around the store, I got pretty excited because everything was just a dollar! I was REALLY excited to go into the chip aisle because I found Nacho flavored Bugles! Those I have to say are quite hard to find nowadays! I love it! I would recommend to come here first and if there is something you can't find here, go to Walmart right after! read more

I think I'm addicted to dollar tree now just cuz there's so much stuff just for a dollar! Yea it's cheap quality but who cares I like that cuz then I get to have a bunch of cheap stuff I would otherwise never buy! For example, I bought a book flashlight for a buck ha. I also got an elf hat and glitter for Christmas. Anywho this location is pretty big, nice, and clean. But I got a mini stapler here that works like shit it doesn't close all the wy for some reason the mouth stays open and the staples r just hanging loose gosh darn it. read more

I agree with Wendy K. This is the cleanliest and most organized Dollar Tree I've been (out of 6). They have everything for your celebration needs (birthdays, anniversaries, gifts) and a whole aisle of cleaning products. Whether you're celebrating Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, Halloween, St. Patricks Day or Valentine's Day, they have something for you. =oP read more

Dollar Tree - Discount Store Near Me - Milpitas, California

Located just shouting distance from Walmart, this wonderful store is a great place to purchase items for your everyday needs. The store has all the everyday items you could want! You will be surprised to see such low prices for household products you would find elsewhere for several times the price! Do yourself a favor, make a stop by here next time you're in the McCarthy area. Not only will you find what you're looking for, you'll find it CHEAP! read more

We had ordered balloons for my niece's birthday three days in advance and paid in full. When we arrived to pick the order up, nothing was ready. The employee started blowing up the first balloon (one of 30!) in front of us. We had to wait close to an hour to get the whole order. Additionally, the manager was EXCEEDINGLY rude and did not honor the receipt. She only gave us 20 balloons because the order was not written out properly by the previous manager. HORRIBLE service, horrible experience. Almost ruined my niece's first birthday. I wish I had something stronger than Yelp to express my frustration and anger at this store. read more

I love, love, love this Dollar Tree! I normally shop at the Berryessa location but was in the area and decided to drop by this one in Milpitas (Walmart/McCarthy Ranch). Not only is it clean, well-stocked and organized but it also has a freezer/refrigerator section where you can find smaller portions of frozen veggies, lunch meat, cheese, milk and frozen food! I recommend loading up your cart (and you WILL need one) with staple items because those sporadic runs to 7-11, liquor stores, grocery stores, etc. start to get very costly. I just wish the other Dollar Tree(s) in my neighborhood install a refrigerator section so I won't have to drive so far... GO SHARKS! read more

Just like Airports, you gotta pay 25 cents for a cart at this store. Looks like they would like you to buy less stuff so you won't need a cart read more

One of the best dollAr trees I have been to in all of San Jose. I like that they always have so many things in stock.

Here on my lunch hour and the line is near the back of the store. 1 cashier and other employees walking around not helping! Urgh!!! Unbelievable! read more

Worst customer service!!! The first time I've had to give a negative review. I don't want to, but I really did not appreciate this experience. Stood in line and placed about 12 items on the conveyor belt. Waited for about 15-20 minutes while NOWANA (the cashier), rung up customers w/ a really bad attitude. I think her shift was ending and was pissed that she was still there due to her rudeness and impatience. As soon as it was my turn, she says "he was the last guy," turns off the cashier stand light and walks away. WTF! You could've told me while I watched your Negative Nancy attitude ring up your previous customers. I understand it's Dollar Tree and customer service is not their strong suit, but...come on now, a little common courtesy goes a long way! She NOWANA be nice and that's not cool!!! read more

I love shopping at Dollar Tree especially for party decor as well as cleaning supplies, and kitchen utensils. Out of the Dollar Tree stores in the area, I like this one the best because it's clean and not topsy-turvy like other locations I've been too. I don't see spilled fruit juice along the aisle or opened bags of chips on the floor. Another great this about this location is that whenever I'm there, it's not crowded and lines aren't that long. Parking isn't a problem either. read more

My favorite Dollar Tree hands down. Seriously the cleanest most organized one I've ever been to in the San Jose/Milpitas area. Just go here. Or actually, please don't, I don't want it to get all massacred like the other locations. Thanks. read more

This location has a huge selection and wasn't very busy during the day. It reminded me of all their locations everywhere, but seemed a little nicer than some I have been to. I buy all my greeting cards here because they are generally unique and most are $.50 or $1. Love it! Seriously come here for any item that doesn't need to be super high quality or brand name. You can get it at an extremely low price! read more

This location just opened last wednesday so I was really excited because I used to live next to a dollar store when I lived with my parents. I like these stores because we throw a lot of parties at my house and the cooking tins,utensils and a lot of the stuff a party needs you can find here and all for a $1. So this was a for sure plus when I saw they were putting it in. This location is really organized so far haha and its located in McCarthy ranch next to wal-mart, pet smart , davids bridal and every other store in this place. read more

Store is fine, staff is fine but they have a manager from hell. Angry and full of attitude. Rude Rude Rude and Angry to her bones, if she could she would snap ones neck. I went today to get some helium filled balloons for my store, asked the cashier if some one can help me. Waited few minutes no one showed up asked the cashier if she was able to call some one? Very politely she said yes some one is coming. Few minutes later a young woman came to cashier and start talking to her. While I was waiting an other couple came over for balloons as well. Finally the young lady came over and said who is first, I said me, I called for you she turned around heated with anger and said, "NO ONE CALLED me I am here to help the cashier". Shocked at here a anger and very rude demeanor. I said well I need 25 balloons. She turned around and yelled literally Yelled have you picked them up yet? I said what is with the attitude why are you yelling at customers. She turned to other customers and start asking them what balloons they want ? instead of Apology or giving any explanation for herself. I said I want to speak with her manager because her behaviors totally not call far. She turned around ready to bite my head up and yelled with burning face I AM THE MANAGER and turned back to other customers. I just walked away and wish the store owners luck in my head. While I was walking away an other customer start talking to me that she too have very bad experience at this store and this young manager is rude to her employees and customers equally. I guess if dollar tree think if their customers buying cheap stuff and do not deserve any service or respect than its a shame. I will never shop there and will not recommend them to any one. I have referred several my customers who are celebrating birthday and anniversaries. With this display of unprofessionalism from their manager today I will dare not to recommend them to any one again. read more

Horrible service.. I came in on my 30 minute lunch break just for chips and a drink and ended up in a huge line. There were plenty of associates yet only one register was open. I walked out with only 10 minutes to spare.. Ridiculous! read more

Tonight I went to dollar tree to get some playing cards and I browsed the Christmas ornaments came across a two pack that I bought previous years and wanted to replace the ones that I currently have on my Christmas tree brought the playing cards and one pack of ornaments to the checkout the cashier said the ornaments rang in .01 I said oh let me go grab one more she said ok and before I got back to the register the manager came over and voided out my original ornament and said she can't sell it to me and gave me a crazy excuse as to why I can't buy them even though there was like 30+ on the sales for pegged on a shelf I said if it's on the sales floor it for sale another cashier then came over saying they took 165 off the floor yesterday because they were told not to sell the well again it's not my fault 30+ were still on the shelf and should not refuse to sell to me due to there mistake forgetting to remove the one I picked out. When I went to take a picture of the ones on shelf the manager (maybe) was putting all of the in a basket and taking them away so I couldn't get a picture of them on shelves without her in picture read more

Came in to buy some glasses for a party favor..... asked for help in packing them since they're fragile.... With all the attitude and sass in the world... This is how they helped pack it... straight up in the cart. I asked for the original boxes they came in and "Greg" said "this is how came..." and then after paying for it nobody helped me pack them. Usually ppl bag ur items right? Nope. There were 4 ppl.... 2 women continued to restock shelves.... The one cashier rang up everyone else in line and "Greg" would just walk around frantically making remarks like "next time order it online..... you know? For future reference....." anyway I guess you get what you paid for... In service too. So long story short.... I'll spend extra money for a worthy experience. read more

Dollar Tree - Discount Store Near Me - Milpitas, California

See all

Be careful of what you buy at Milpitas location as they have no refund or exchange policy. Three consecutive times ( convenient location) I have bought plastic wear and it has been cracked or broken. Never had this issue at other stores. Yes will not be visiting this location. One star because it is part of chain. read more

Once every few months or so I have to get my dolar tree fix. This is a place where you impulse buy and I have to avoid this place as much as possible. i'll end up impulse buying food that'll make you regret in some shape or form.My son loves the orange chicken here and is definitely worth a $1 read more

I'm giving 1 star for the poor customer service and lame excuse they gave me when I bought some faulty nightlight bulbs from this place. When I got home, I put one of the bulbs in my nightlight lamp. It didn't work. I tried the other bulbs in the pack. Only 1 worked. I went back to the store to return them. I expected all the bulbs to work, and I was not going to purchase a semi-working pack. The cashier manager said I couldn't return them if the package was opened. Now really??? I asked the cashier manager, "How am I supposed to check if the bulbs worked if I don't open the package?" I told her that they're selling faulty merchandise. I demanded a refund for the faulty bulbs. Only after making a commotion did the cashier manager finally said, "okay just this once." If they don't intend to give refunds for faulty light bulbs, they should have a sign by the light bulbs stating, "Purchase at your own risk. Bulbs might not work and there are no refunds." Based on this experience, DON'T BUY ELECTRICAL STUFF AT THE DOLLAR TREE STORE. YOU'LL BE SORRY! read more

Bad customer service. Long wait. Only had one cashier working. Employee could do a better job greeting customer and ask if they need help. Their customer service need to improve. I think his name was Florencio. read more

One cashier and he needed change so he asked his coworker or supervisor he needed change. She just said, "yeah ok" and then disappears for a while. Called manager and she helped out right away. How do you have one cashier handling a longass line while everyone else is stocking up? The guy was apologetic for the inconsiderate girl he asked though. This dollar tree isn't as ghetto as the one on landess from what I've noticed, but that's only because it was empty at 10am on a tues. I'm cool with that. read more

Horrible shopping experience. Very long lines only one register open. Three employees standing up front talking. Very very poor customer service. read more
