The moment I walk in. It's dirrrrrrttttyyyy. Theres trash everywhere, looks like it hasn't been swept/vacuumed or dusted in months and boxes of items to be put away everywhere. Only reason I'm giving two stars is because they have a lot of product. read more

I always enjoyed shopping here. And it is located next to one of my favorite eateries. Such a large variety of items for sale. Staff were friwndly. It just needs a bit more TLC, such as bring out the broom, and orhanize the shelfs more often. I took my best friend and and his wife here. She was amazed at the priced. In fact, she filled her grocery cart with 84 items, and her totol bill came to $84. No where else is that going to happen. read more

There is a really bad and disrespectful older lady at the register im sure many know who im talking about she constantly makes rude comments about customers after they leave you think she was the owner. The store is well stocked but that lady has horrible customer service she shouldn't be at the register read more

Why this place have only 1 star? It must be 5! Just come here to rate it! The service is beyond awesome, really nice and friendly The place has lots of good stuffs, and they organized everything really neat! read more

Disrespectful cashier!! Just stopped at the Dollar Tree for a few items. My cashier did not have change enough yet for the bill I had. He called over to the medium aged cashier at the first register, but she didn't have any either. She proceeded to talk to all those nearby about how "some people think they can use them as a bank,...." I stated that it was rude to talk about me and wanted to report her to a manager, but I felt that wouldn't get anywhere. There are many other options when it comes to dollar stores. read more

This business is dirty, the cashiers are rude, items broken and thrown on the floor. Kid are allowed to run wild throughout the store especially in the stationary and toy sections read more

Very rude staff. The manager likes to make her own rules and gets upset if you don't follow them. Avoid at all costs!

The place is always a mess. Always a long line at the checkstand. They never seem to call for another checker, until I get to the front of the line. read more

Only come here if your not in a hurry. Be prepared to wait. The main difference between this store and the 99 cent store down the street is their cashiers. Here they're all slow as molasses. They act like they have all day to check you out. I've been here several times with several different cashiers and it's always the same. Their customer service is bleak. No greetings and not much help finding stuff your pretty much on your own. We get it, you get paid by the hour but we don't get paid to wait for your inefficiency. In comparison with the 99 cent store whose cashiers work hard and fast to get you out the door asap. Plus they always have more lines open, not two. The one good thing is this store is bigger than others and has more merchandise to choose from. Lots of different things the other stores don't have. read more

Tracy is an absolutely horrible person. She makes fun of customers she tried being rude to me but I set her straight. I used to come in and spend $50-$100 everytime but if I walk in and see Tracy I just leave and spend my money elsewhere I cannot believe she is still there because the interaction I had with her was years ago. She horrible so if you see Tracy on the name tag move to another line! Or exit the store if she's the only line open read more

As a customer at this store and a former customer service employee, I'd expect for everyone to be treated with respect and dignity. As I was line today waiting to be attended Tracy had the audacity to tell me, "I had to spray febreze because they smelled" as the family (of color) walked out and tried explaining it to her coworker. Also, this isn't the first time and won't be the last until you do better Dollar Tree! read more

This store is so disgusting!!! Every isle is a mess (let the pictures speak for themselves). Why would they have such a big store if they can't keep it up? I saw no employees in the store, on the floor, just one cashier with a long line of people. Needless to say i left! read more

Horrible! By far the worst dollar tree I've ever been to. There is stuff everywhere on the floor, messy, unorganized, slow. Tripping hazards everywhere. read more

They have very rude service they told my mom she can only get four boxes of wipes meanwhile the other customers had two boxes of wipes and hand sanitizer she can only get four like when she asked for more and the had like so many boxes like four for person after she waited the people got five boxes I do not recommend read more

10/13/19 Oh, my gosh! The condition of this store was unacceptable! The floor was littered with items and trash! A store shouldn't look like this! There was an obvious lack of management and the few workers there were at the registers (long lines)...or somewhere else. Find a broom and a trash bin, push everything on the floor to the center of the aisles, scoop them up, and toss them away! The items on the shelves appeared somewhat organized, but overall, the store was unkempt, dirty and unsanitary. read more

This dollar tree store is a disaster. It used to be clean, but obviously there's been some change in management over the last year or two. If you enjoy picking up items off the floor and buying them, you'll love this place. Otherwise go to one of the other stores in town, there's 2 other dollar tree stores in Salinas that are both much nicer. read more

Dollar Tree - Discount Store Near Me - Salinas, California

Raise the Shelves to 4' on the Children's side, 3-4-5 yr olds unsupervised by mamee yes mamee, little hands touching and pulling to the floor like a playground. I wrote up the Chinese buffet next door for the same disgusting thing. Little ones licking the Salt and Pepper containers. Never GOing BACK, DISGUSTING!! read more

It's hard to recommend this place when it's so disorganized half the time. They have good inventory but Don't keep it clean I recommend going to the Davis location or 99 cents only Wich is a block away, or hopefully they can fix these issues. read more

On or about 10:45AM, Sunday, 9/8/2019, I stopped at the Dollar Tree store, 1441 N. Main Salinas for an ice cream for one senior citizen as a gift. I picked it up, waited in line for 15 minutes. There were two lines were open, each line there were more than 10 customers waiting. On line 1, the cashier (female) was talking to the couple, they knew each other, talking about cats, dogs, and other things, holding the line; my 15 minutes waiting time was something NOT acceptable to myself. Finally, I approached the cashier, "Ma'am, look at the line, I have been in line for 15 minutes, could you handle the social visit later after work, These customers are waiting, I am waiting." She replied, "it is non of your business. I want to talk to her whatever I want to talk to her." A few minutes later, I asked one of the floor staff, I wanted to talk to the store manager. He arrived in front of this line one, he seemed upset. I informed him, if I could talk to him after I paid for this ice cream in PRIVATE. He said, "I talk to you right here". Finally, after 20 minutes waiting because of her, cashier's social visit instead of serving the rest of the customers, paid, and approached the store manager (Mr. Archer). He was standing in front of the two lines-open, and all the customers are watching; I started to say, "the cashier in line one, having social visit,..." I even did not finish the sentence, Mr. Archer, disrespectfully, aggressively, put the fingers on my face, and said, "you listen, Mr. we are engaging in our customers.. ". The way he was approaching me with the attitudes associated with the violent manner, to deviate the situation, I simply walked out. In Sum, Mr. Archer is misunderstood store manger. He creates the violent behavior instead of listen to the customer who humbly and respectfully approaching him. Mr. Archer does not understand the core value of the customers. He should read the business communication textbook. He should NOT be a store manager. read more

Dirty Messy Poorly stocked Unwelcoming staff Only good thing is you can get stuff for cheap read more

- This place is a Dump! - I went in this morning shortly after the store opened. The floors were littered with goods... dirty candy wrappers on the floor... the entrance mat to the store is disgustingly dirty and worn. - - Shame on whoever owns or manages this pig-pen. read more

This afternoon my sister and I went to this Dollar Tree and the customer service was the worst. When we were paying for the products the employee Stacy was extremely rude, she scanned one of our products and then simply threw it to the other side. Not only that but while scanning the rest of the products she started to gossip with a coworker which is unprofessional. Although I had a bad experience today I still recommend going to this store because not everyone is unprofessional few workers are polite and take their job seriously. read more

This place is so disgusting, I'm embarrased for them!! Last week I went in looking for something which obviously I couldnt find. There is more merchandise on the floor than on the shelves in certain sections. I asked an employee what happened as it looked like there was an earthquake. She said kids. I left and returned 4 days later and it looked exactly the same! Who the hell is the manager!! Ill never go back! The only reason I selected 1 star is yelp forced me to choose a star so I could make this post. read more

I was pleasantly surprised the first time I walked into this store. They actually have a lot of good quality items and I love only paying a buck for whatever I want. I was a bit dissapointed by the cashier I had the other day - he was less than friendly. Other than that, this place is huge! Way to go, Dollar Tree! read more

I have shopped at many dollar tress in other states besides California. I can honestly say this is the dirtiest, nastiest one I have ever been to. Carpets are dirty, merchandise is thrown all over the floor, and you rarely can get a basket. Business management 101 should be implemented! read more

Went here yesterday and couldn't believe what a disgusting mess this store was. It was one hour after they opened and you can tell they didn't clean from the day before. Some isles I couldn't even get down due to the mess on the floor. Don't go here unless you don't mind a mess. Wouldn't give it one star but Yelp doesn't allow this. Horrible place of business. read more

I love all the stuff they have available here. That they don't at other stores. Lots of good stuff and lines went quick. The only downside and reason for the 3 starts is that the bathroom was filthy. read more

Yikes, very unorganized, store seems dirty and there never any carts available. Some occasional finds but I rather avoid this place at all cost. read more

When I first came across this store one day in 2001, I wasn't yet familiar with this chain, then learned that there would be one coming to Hollister later that year (I was one of the first people to work at the Hollister store). When I first entered the Salinas store, I was impressed by the selection. I still enjoy going to this store (any of these stores). This is a rather large one. read more

The store is always disorganized and dirty. However, it has everything I need for various little things I do as a teacher. :)

Pretty good deals. Place gets dirty and torn up on a regular basis. Lines can get long sometimes, but in general better then the 99 Cent only store. Open until 10 pm, close, and convenient. Manager is OK, employees don't care. It's not like they are on commission and your dropping big bucks. read more

The Salinas Dollar Tree has nasty looking carpets, the bathrooms are filthy and all the food racks are in poor condition. I can't believe it's still open to the public. It's a shame because it gives the other Dollar Tree stores a bad mark. read more
