Just wanted to leave a review on the staff here. The service is outstanding each time I am here. Always friendly and outgoing. Some of the cashiers are quite funny and make me laugh on the way out. The service is the most important part of a business which keeps you coming back. This is it. One of the few locations I have went to that has a great selection on items and constantly restocking the shelves to keep up with the demands. Everything is always nicely labeled and you much you are spending each and every time. It's a great place for household needs and snacks. I get a lot of my decorations here too. It's the Dollar Tree so you get a lot more for a lot less. read more

Medium size Dollar Tree, and not too far from my office. I often have to search Dollar Tree locations for specific items that we need. Sometimes the small or medium size locations have items left when the larger busier ones have sold them out. I can sometimes luck out here, when I can't find something at the larger Clairemont Town Square location. The parking situation is a little strange, because the store is in the corner of the shopping center. You might have to park a little way down, and walk over. And maybe walk over to Barrio Donas, lol. read more

I like dollar tree. They have quite a few things here that is thrifty and easy on the wallet. You don't have to go a bouji locations like target or Walmart even though they are quite competitive but have named brands versus the dollar store brand selection. If you are in a tight spot for funds, this is your go to place. The service is always friendly, talkative and make the transactions go smoothly. read more

I drive past this Dollar Tree and never knew it existed. I decided to stop by instead of the one I visit in Clairemont shopping center. I like that they were blasting the AC but customer service was slow although cashier was nice. The aisles were spacious and organized but a lot of items were sold out so it was def a quick shopping experience for me. Pro plenty of parking. read more

Store itself is a mess. Aisles are cramped, shelves are always half-stocked, and the lighting makes everything look dingy. Now it's just overpriced basics in a tight space. Feels more like a storage closet than a store. read more

Dollar Tree - Discount Store Near Me - San Diego, California

I could feel the franticness of the employees and the chaos as soon as I entered. I knew it was going to be an interesting experience especially since I needed a ton of balloons to be blown up. Some customers were giving them a hard time. You can tell they were trying their best and they were sweet despite them showing signs of stress. I went and got some other items as I tried to avoid the long lines that were already building up at the cashier. I came back to only a bigger one. As I perused the aisles, it seemed a bit disorganized. Some shelves were full stocked, others barely anything on it, and a box or two just floating around all over the place. They must be underemployed or understaffed because it sure did feel like it. Kim, the manager was running back and forth. Shoutout to her for taking care of me while talking to her supervisor while voiding out transactions from her colleagues. I think because it is a pretty disorganized store, I wouldn't necessarily say it's the best place to shop but if you can have some patience / not in a rush to get any place, this spot is serviceable. read more

Smells horrible inside and several shelves are empty. It's March and there's still xmas items out. People are let in with their dogs without a leash, collar, or service dog identification. Will not be returning. read more

Service and selection is great. They have more items than the dollar tree by my house. Even better choices than another location that had. I also like that most of the staff are nice to my mom. Very kind and friendly staff. I always prefer this dollar tree over the one that is closer to me. read more

Looked like someone threw up night before in front of the doors. Whole store dirty. Freezers were broke so they were empty. Lots of candy and seasonal things to decorate with. If you shop at Food 4 Less, the food prices are pretty much the same so really not getting any great bargains but it is what it is. I guess if you just wanna run and grab something it's OK but it was really dirty, and there were a lot of boxes on the floor floors. It was hard to get around. Won't be in a hurry to go back. read more

Today They had the majority of the items on my list. AND then some.. They didn't have a variety pack of single serving instant oatmeal. A nice swivel mic headset for $1.25 the price wasn't marked so I expected to pay 3 to 5 bucks for it. They weren't on today's list but were on my list of things to buy to replace damaged things. So it wasn't impulse buying. There were 3 employees there that I knew of 2. cashiers and a stocker all were friendly. One of the cashiers remembered me from the last time I was at that location . There are about a half dozen or so Dollar Tree I frequent depending on what part of San Diego I'm in. read more

I go to this Dollar Tree to look for cute little gifts and balloons (and sometimes other things that I had no idea I would want until I am cruising the store). Today I needed balloons and was told that the helium was almost gone, luckily I had Annela helping me and she was able to fill 10 balloons (the amount I had asked for). She was very personable and patient, especially for being the only cashier working at the time. Thanks Dollar Tree! read more

Dollar Tree - Annela for the win! Thanks for the and pleasant attitude! - Discount Store Near Me - San Diego, California

This Dollar Tree is absolutely disgusting. While I was checking out, a huge live cockroach was crawling right next to me at the register. What made it even worse was that the employees acted like it was completely normal. Nobody seemed concerned, nobody did anything about it, and it genuinely felt like seeing cockroaches in the store is just an everyday occurrence.. The store is constantly dirty, poorly maintained, and almost always understocked. Half the aisles are empty, products are scattered everywhere, and it never looks like it's being properly cleaned. There are usually only one or two employees working, so service is painfully slow and the entire store feels neglected. Seeing a live cockroach crawling around a checkout area where customers are standing should be alarming to any business, but the lack of urgency from the staff was honestly just as disturbing as the cockroach itself. This location desperately needs new management, better staffing, and a serious deep cleaning. At this point, if the store isn't willing to maintain basic cleanliness standards, it should be shut down until it can read more

I just wanted to express my disappointment with an incident I witnessed at this store today. A young employee was publicly berated by an older lady, whom may have been a supervisor, not sure. This incident happened in front of customers and she was accompanied by another staff member near the checkout area. The supervisor lady loudly accused the cashier of something. Honestly, I was not able to gather what it was that she complaining about since she wasn't speaking clearly. At the same time, you could clearly see the cashier was just as alarmed as I was. I felt embarrassed for him. And to make things worse, there was also another staff member with her telling the cashier that he'd be "written up," for something else without allowing the cashier to explain himself. The cashier just remained for the most part quiet and tried to explain himself. But at the same time, you could tell how embarrassed he was with the whole ordeal. He seemed trapped trying to figure out a way to defend himself while checking out my items at the register. In my eyes public humiliation is never appropriate. This approach was unprofessional, disrespectful, and deeply uncomfortable for everyone present. If there's an issue with an employee, it should be addressed privately--not used as a spectacle. It damages morale and reflects poorly on the store's values. If there's any at this point. I would like to share some tips how management can handle things in the future : 1. **Discipline staff privately** to preserve dignity. 2. Train leaders on **respectful conflict resolution**. 3. Ensure employees can defend themselves before consequences. As a customer, i would really like to see a more respectful approach, specially when it comes to new hires. Somehow, to me, the gentleman seemed new since i have been coming to this location often and I've never seen him working here before. Never-less, this incident makes me question whether I should continue supporting your store. I wish I had kept the receipt but here is my complaint and two cents. Do better Dollar Tree. read more

Great place for cards and quick party decorations!, and just about any snack you're craving at the time!!

John the assistant manager was sitting there talking with another employee who wasn't even clocked in while there were eleven people in line and needing help. Tracy was amazing helping everyone as fast as she could. John should not be an assistant manager. He was too busy talking about Raptors and gossiping with the coworker who wasn't even clocked in while everyone else just waited. He should be demoted or fired. read more

Lee Ann, the manager, gave me excellent service by helping me find a decoration for a cake for 1 yr anniversary. I love shopping at this location because of excellent customer service. Thank you. read more

Dollar Tree Rev Fun stuff to try, nostalgia, affordable Mother Earth + Gaia friendly products, friendly caring community. We express our love for each other in many ways, sometimes its through covering a bill for a neighbor struggling to pay for groceries, and sometimes its through paying it forward an expression of the gratitude felt. Thank you San Diego, and thank you kind neighbor. Our cultures have so many vibrant stars in mounds of tales, books, scriptures, dances, games, competition, visions of how to pray, and like our cultures, a trip to the store for sustainable, healthy, foods, can yield a basket full of fun extras and essentials to brighten our day or provide an ever thinking mind some fun. Our local dollar tree has added more shelf space, stock, and oat milk availability. An old memory or fondness, like my childhood craving for moon pies we rarely if ever had, can be fulfilled affordably. Kind neighbors lent a hand and covered my purchase when I had card issues, thank you! It is warming to not only give, but receive help. Be careful, you may have too much fun buying crafts, balloons for friends birthdays to suck out the helium for a lighthearted unexpected "Happy Birthday!" video, baking Irish Brown Bread, cards with heartfelt messages, and groceries for us scraping to get by. Irish Brown Bread (Soda Bread, De Bread) is easy to make, full of nutrition. Rusticly rich Earthen kissed grain soaks up buttery smoke laced fat from affordable sausages rejuvenated with one of our oldest Irish Stouts, their purple lipped cabbage leaves balance the filling density of carbs and fat, with fiber and love (True Mothers Earth+Gaia). I was lucky to find a ribbon and a True Father cross. John Lewis inspired me on thanksgiving, thank you John. Despite the control placed on you during your time at congress, you overcame the evil of our ruling elite, those that find loud passionate leaders, and either manipulate them or try to make them seem crazy with their interesting spiritual games. They don't want another MLK, martyrs are too loud and inspirational. You were, and continue to be, a blessing from True Father. Absolutely. Bless you, thank you John Lewis. True Father works mysteriously, thank you for all the times you watched over me. Our neighborhood Dollar Tree is a goldmine for affordable fun, nostalgic treats, and has added shelving to add more grocery options like oatmilk. Frozen vegetables, smoked sausages, are a great way to have Mother's Gaia & Earth's nutritional love in our fridges. Their veggies and meat, in a balanced diet, fill our grumbling stomachs while we pray with Father God (whomever yours may be, diversity is an integral part of our world). Rich flavorful complex vegan broth warms the heart and mind, and with fresh juicy Snap Peas from a True Mothers lovin garden, this affordable pick me up is something everyone should try! Our world is changing, with inequality at levels worse than the historical people power driven revolutions. Unity is easier with nourished bellies. Thank the day, and ask, when will we tear down the triangle at the top for the people? ALL THE PEOPLE. read more

Store is dirty and disorganized, and cashiers are complaining about schedules and management right in front of customers. Also only one register was open for a long line full of people the week before a major holiday, my whole experience was very uncomfortable and unprofessional. read more

We were in town and needed to get a few items. Yelp lead us to this Dollar Tree location. We arrived shortly after they open. To our surprise, this was a pretty large store compared to other locations. The aisles were full of boxes and employees working hard to fill the shelves. We found what we needed and wandered around checking out the rest of the store. If you haven't been to Dollar Tree, it's worth the trip. They sell home decor items, kitchen supplies, cleaning supplies, party supplies, toys, limited tools/hardware, greeting cards, and food. Overall, it's a decent store. Some items I would pass on. I always find cleaning supplies, helium balloons, greeting cards, gift bags, and some foodie items to be of value. Like anything else, know your prices!!! At the time we were shopping, everything was a dollar each. The prices may have gone up for the new year. We enjoyed our shopping spree! Employees were friendly and helpful. We'll be back next time.... read more

Great selection, lots of stock, clean, and the lady who runs the register I've had multiple great interactions with, she has some tattoos that look to be cultural on her face, chin etc, and she wears lots of jewelry. She is fantastic and she needs to work somewhere that will pay her better for her great attitude and patience. read more

The manager, if she is actually the manager, Josie, is so miserable & has the worst customer service. I was doing instacart and on the phone with a customer as I was checking out. She told me that I couldn't be on the phone while I was checking out, which I explained to her that I was speaking with the customer I was helping. She told me she couldn't help me while I was on the phone. I hung up so that I could finish the transaction. She then double charged me (the customer) for multiple items which I had to explain to her that she scanned twice. Finally, she finalized the transaction without charging me for a bag & refused to give me one. She told me to get back in a different cashier's line. Of course they only have 2 lanes open at a time max so there were 10+ people in each line. As the manager she has no customer service and created a hostile environment for her customers. read more

I just have to give Dollar Tree five stars! Their prices are amazing, they have such a wide variety of items to choose from, and the staff is always very helpful. It's my go-to store for a many household items. read more

My family love to come see Leanne greet us at the door. She's very good with customers, very helpful and attentive service as well.

This location is much larger than the one near my home. It has a much larger selection of party supplies, craft section is awesome and office supplies. I like coming here to pick up party supplies for my office for birthdays and other celebrations. Can't beat the price for party supplies like napkins and plates that will be tossed anyways. Wouldn't buy food here unless it's candy. Steer away from electronics and home goods like outlets or batteries. Medicine is also questionable. You'll run into some strange characters here. Don't be surprised and come prepared. Prices go up to $1.25 in Jan 2022! read more

I've been going to this dollar tree for many months and they have never once fixed the sliding door that is obnoxiously squeaky however, for the past few times that I've been going there has been no music and the atmosphere has been absolutely horrendous. There is welcoming vibe or positive atmosphere whatsoever without the music. I believe that there needs to be some type of priority change. read more

Ugh the WORST. I see why Dollar Tree is going out of business. A store full of people and only one cashier? The one cashier must be overworked because she's very rude. I was going to say something back to her but she's old and ugly and has enough problems so I gave her a break read more

Really amazing Cashiers who are so sweet shout out to Mariah the assistant Manager who always solves issues pretty quick and is really helpful finding items in need always see her working hard when I come in the store! read more

They did not have the small and medium Christmas gift bags. There was only one cashier. The line was long. There wasn't anyone around to answer questions. read more

The customer service from the cashiers is amazing. My daughter who is 3 loves to shop and they always treat her like an adult and play along with her. They could use more associates however because there is always only one register open and always a big line, with freight everywhere. But the customer service makes up for it in my book. read more

Good customer service from a few cashiers. Whoever the is the manager of this location needs to get it together the store is always a mess not even to mention there's always only one cashier checking people out either hire some more help or find a new job you should be ashamed of yourself taking the manager position and running the store like it's your own personal garage sale read more

As far as dollar stores go... there's not too much of note other than to marvel at the variety random, poorly-made stuff one can find at such a market. However, several things draw me in to this store: helium balloons, holiday decs, greetings cards, spare reading glasses and glow sticks for my kid's rave baths. Side note, I find the "pow" balloons, as I call them, to be fun trinkets for kids. They're foil-wrapped squares of uninflated balloons that one must place on a hard surface and then POW! smack em with a fist and watch them inflate. Sometimes they need an assist but they're fun nevertheless. I digress. I've found almost every one of the staff here to be friendly and customer-service oriented. They make stopping by this store to be an enjoyable experience (especially during their school supply drive!). read more

I randomly stopped by here to grab a bunch of Christmas gift boxes, which I immediately found in the front. They had tons of them lined up in one aisle. There are two sizes to choose from. The smaller size comes with three boxes and the larger size comes with two boxes. Each box has a different design on them. Some are cute, some are okay. But you can't ever expect too much from a dollar store! But they do the job good. I didn't walk around to look at other things because I was in a rush, but I can tell that they are well stocked on all the basic items you may be searching for. It wasn't too crowded or too busy either. It seems more emptier than other locations. But overall, they could make it brighter inside. Looks very gloomy and sad. Not to mention their parking lot is extremely small and compact. Do not park directly in front if you have a nice car or a truck! read more

Nicest Dollar Tree in the area! It's nice and spacious inside and everything is well-organized! I like coming here to buy air fresheners, cheap picture frames, hair clips, tissues etc. I like how it's nice and clean inside and you have better demographics than the 99 Cent store down the road. They also have great seasonal decorations for the holidays, Easter, 4th of July etc. They also sell foil balloons that they'll blow up for you! Great place to load up on necessities that you don't want to pay an arm and a leg for! read more

This store deserves no stars. The people working there should be working somewhere else. I can't believe the level of stupidity I just received from someone on the phone who treated me like I was an idiot. For asking a simple question. Which they turned down my business. I asked if I could buy a balloon and instead of them filling that one up If they'd fill up one balloon I bring with me. Same size. One freaking balloon. Come on. Can't I buy one of their balloons and instead of them putting helium in it, they can put it in one I bring in of the same size. So you keep your balloons and your helium. I won't be sending any one to this store. Big loss on dollar trees end. We used to shop here a lot for our party needs. Better luck hiring better employees with respect. I'd never hang up on a customer with such a rude statement like she just did. Terrible customer service. She also said you stated you didn't want to buy our balloon, which was the opposite of what I asked. I wanted to pay them for their balloon first. Selective hearing, incompetent employee. Do better. read more

This was my first visit to Dollar Tree. Staff was very friendly and they did have some great buys on cleaning products. The back of the store was very messy. Party area looked like there had been a big party on site. In fairness they may have had some rude customers. All in all it was an interesting store and I would go back to check for deals. Of note. All cards are 2 for $1 and they cute. read more

Wow, seeing all the other reviews, this place seems to be held in high regards. Which is good, it's what we want to see! My visit was fairly short, mostly coming in to get some last minute gift supplies. Dollar tree ALWAYS has great birthday bags, in all sizes from tiny ones to really big ones. And I always like the designs here better than at Wal Mart, as well as the prices are better. You just can't beat a dollar haha. I came in 15 minutes before close so the store was empty. Interaction with the employees was minimal but pleasant. Glad to know this store is making customers happy! read more

I've been going to dollar tree my whole life and have never felt the need to post a review but this location has completely fallen apart, the isles are not being taken care of. Trying to dig through the craft aisle it's like trying to dig through bins at a Goodwill outlet store... just piles of stuff thrown around. It's like nobody is taking care of the store. Also it's starting to smell like rotten food. I was just at the same location two weeks ago and it did not have this smell. read more

I like stopping here for the little random items when I'm in the area or grabbing things on the fly. The staff are all really nice and that's a huge plus. Very helpful as well and they enjoy having conversations with the customers. My only compliant are the long lines. I've had to stop here a few times on lunch break and I feel the hiring manger should start hiring more people to work here to avoid the long wait in one single line. It's not the cashiers fault they just need more help running the register. Seems chaotic for the manager to expect them to stock and run register at the same time running back and forth. Besides that I like the store. They are also pet friendly. read more

I came here on a Friday or Saturday night and grabbed a few things I needed. I grabbed them, but I did not purchase them. Why? Because I stood in line for a good 5 to 10 minutes and realized that the line hadn't moved. There was ONE checkstand open, everyone in front of me had like 40 items, and I guess speed is not their employees strong suit. I get it, it's a dollar store, you're not going to have the greatest checkout experience. But this one was just bad. Mental note: pick a different location next time. And sorry to the employees who had to re-stock the shelves with my ditched items. You guys need to tell your manager you need more employees to run check-outs on a weekend! read more
