The Dollar Tree is one of my wife's favorite stores to visit, and it has grown on me, too, over time. We have typically enjoyed going to the Dollar Tree next to Target, though we recently went on a date night to this new Dollar Tree, and it sure impressed us! We have been back a few times for random items most recently this evening when I ran in to find a single item. I'm pleased to share it was very easy to find. This store clearly has everything we would need in stock. It has a huge selection of common and uncommon items alike. The staff are kind and considerate and even say hello to every customer entering the store, and the lines do not seem to be too long at any given time.
My favorite one-off items here and there that I would go to Dollar Tree for are blown-up balloons (birthday, anniversary, congratulations, get well), kitchen products including aluminum foil, plastic tablecloths, and name tags. Every time I visit, I find a new item I never would have thought of looking for. There is also a seasonal item section which always has something fun for friends, family, work, or myself (or my wife, of course). It's easy to spend too much or to find a gift for practically anyone.
The strangest thing (that makes sense now as I think about it) is that the Dollar Tree carts are unable to leave the store. They have poles in them that keeps them from being able to go out the front door. That means that the carts can be used in the store but you are on your own to get items from the store to your car nearby. At least they have a lot of the carts right when you enter the store. Then again, if there are nearby stores with carts, you can always try to borrow one of those to take into Dollar Tree and then back out to your car.
This location has great staff and the customers are rather courteous. It is ironically just across the street from an older and smaller Dollar Tree. The size of this Dollar Tree though is significantly larger. They also have a larger selection of items. Oh, and technically, the store should now be called $1.25 Tree... read more
