The store is in disarray and its hard to find certain items that you are looking for and can't find.

BEWARE of the female employees at the dollar tree store location on Pulaski near Wilson. I wasn't…read moreaware that there's a time limit for browsing and shopping at that location. They get very sharky around you if you're there for more than one hour. especially the Spanish chunky chick with long hair. she has a very serious demeanor. never smiles. I noticed after a while past the one hour browsing and shopping looking, she would creep up in the same aisle I was at pretending to stock and check items at the same time spying on me. very creepy. I didn't have a basket so had to hold a few items in my hands and forearm. The other heavy set AA female employee is just as leery and creepy. It's very insulting, uncomfortable and off putting to assume someone is taking things. It is not worth my time to cater to a location with suspicious sharky employees. The other locations never shark me. very disappointed with this location, it's big bright and spacious. but it is not worth being there over 30 minutes. I tend to linger a bit longer when I haven't been at a certain location in a long while. but it is not worth it at this location unfortunately. :/ my favorite employee is not there anymore :( and she was the very nicest cheerful one, made me smile. I think I see why she's not still there. probably had to tolerate the creepy other women coworkers. zero stars for employee demeanor, lack of confidence in innocent customers.

I have been coming to this Dollar Tree for several years, especially within the last two moves, so…read moreI've watched a lot of employees come and go. Some were great; others were not so great. But I'm updating my review SOLELY on the cashier I met for the first time yesterday. It's been a couple of decades since I was a cashier, and I remember how much you had to bite your tongue when it came to some of the comments people would make. In my case, it was usually management and not the customers. But this location always has a colorful bunch of customers that just do the most RANDOMLY outrageous stuff for no absolute reason, from digging in their noses to screaming across the aisles to completely ignoring the pandemic six-footer rule. Lately, it's been fairly normal in there. That or I'm lucking out and going at all the right times. But yesterday, I was baffled by a conversation between a white, male customer and a black, female cashier. In what should've been a non-controversial conversation about the holiday season, she mentioned off-handedly that her daughters have polar opposite personalities but she had a good Christmas nonetheless. And this guy had the audacity to ask her if she had "Bebe's Kids." That was so unnecessarily offensive, and I know he would not ask a white lady cashier this same question. When she tried to professionally and calmly correct him that these weren't small children, he switched to asking her were they like the kid in "Home Alone." How many different ways are you going to insult this woman's parental habits? I was furious, but she played it so cool. Had she responded with what I was thinking, she'd have been terminated. For that, I commend her for keeping her cool under what was a very ignorant conversation. I finally said something about not needing a bag and pushing my stuff to the front to get him to hurry up, bag his stuff and get away from me (and her). She was just as nice to me, but I do wonder if those comments rubbed her wrong. Either way, her level of patience is management material, and I hope someone acknowledges that. Happy Holidays to her for being a patient, professional and take-the-high-road mother!

(Zero stars) If…read morethere's such a thing as an "Absolutely the Worst Store Ever" award, it belongs to this s***hole. Egad, this place is so scary, families ought to bring their kids here for Halloween instead of paying admission to a haunted house! Enter at your own risk (and avoid wearing open shoes). I've visited stores in impoverished countries that are far nicer. The hopeless mess is in stark contrast to better-maintained Dollar Tree stores in the 'burbs. Merchandise is strewn on shelves helter-skelter. The floor, which likely hasn't seen a mop since the Obama era, is littered with a mix of trash, blobs of crud, and trampled merchandise. Spills are ignored. Some of the aisles are impassable, blocked by an avalanche of cartons and junk. Heck, I was afraid to breathe the air without a mask!

One of my favorite places to shop for daily household items! They have an array of name brand…read moreproducts that I use. Along with great deals, they have an amazing assortment of gift bags, small gifts, perfumes (I no longer go to Nordys to buy my high end perfumes!) and part supplies galore! I volunteer at my kids' school and always go to Advance when I need party tablecloths, small party gifts, crayons, coloring books, pencils.. the list goes on! The staff is friendly and helpful. I worked with Ajay and Asha and they both are always accommodating! They have a parking lot next door and a helper is always available to assist me to my car. I recommend Advance Distributors for your home and gift shopping needs!

Advance Distributors is on the SE corner of Pulaski Ave & Argyle across the parking lot from Aldi…read more My wife is a Filipina and anyone who knows Filipinos know about the Balikbayan Box that they like to send or bring home loaded up with American items that are coveted in the Philippines. Her brother Ed lives in Quezon City w/his daughter and 3 grandkids. 2 girls and 1 boy. My wife calls frequently to check up and see how he's doing (I mean even if there was a problem he wouldn't tell her). So anyway she was talking to him last night to see how he's doing and if there were any specific items that he needed. The 7 year old granddaughter was asked if she wanted anything. She doesn't want anything like a Barbie doll she wants an i phone X. Yeah right let's get her a $1000 i phone X. Maybe one for her sister too lol. We recently found out after years of driving by that it is open to the public. This coupled by our plans to go to the Philippines early next year we ventured into the building that houses Advance Distributors to see if there was anything we could find. Upon entering we found row after row of merchandise some of value and others not so much (kind of like a giant flea market). I met one the owners Vijay who told me they have been there since 1974. It was originally owned by his father and now he & his brother run Advance Distributers. He told me he would give me a discount, but much of the discount is volume driven and I didn't need to buy more of certain items. Unfortunately there wasn't much that we needed from the store & many of the items that were name brand items I have bought when on sale at other stores at lower prices.
