Overpriced crap from a flea market.. they are now calling themselves Uno Dollar Plus.... I guess…read morebecause it really isn't a discount?

Was at Planet Fitness the other day. Noticed the store for the first time, and decide to check it…read moreout. I live in town, and like to support local businesses as much as possible. The place is basically an indoor flea market, with what appear to be items that "fell off the back of a truck" headed to Dollar Tree. Some other repackaged salvation army donations line the walls and back corner. As I said earlier, I try and support local businesses whenever possible, so I decided to buy something for that sole purpose. Up towards the front, I saw a nick nack skull gas pump thing that caught my attention. Much like a flea market, nothing is marked with a price. The shelf the item was on was maybe 10' from the register, so I picked it up and asked the clerk how much it was. He told me to bring it over to him, I obliged. As soon I handed it to him, him told me that it was broken. I wasn't interested enough in the thing to buy it broken, so when he asked if I still wanted to purchase it, I declined. The next 2 minutes sound straight out of and episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm, but it's too random to fabricate. With no hint of sarcasm, the clerk asked me a second time, if I was going to buy it. I told him, no thanks, since he had literally just pointed out that it was broken. He said, "you broke it, but you're not going to buy it?" Again, no hint of sarcasm. All I could spit out was "what?" He repeated his asinine accusation. I reminded him that he literally watched me pick up the item and make the 10' journey to the register. He said, you must have dropped it. It was literally 10 FEET from the register, a straight line, in plain view. I told him that I would have never even known it was broken had HE not pointed it out. And I probably would have purchased it is the price wasn't ridiculous. Which brings me to the next level of insanity. He said, "since it's broken, $20." If I didn't know any better I would have sworn he was joking. In fact, I laughed and again could only muster up a chuckled "what!?" He asked a finally time, incredulously, "so you're not going to buy it?" Zero irony. I said "why would I buy something that's broken?" He somehow spun it around on me, where he was the bigger person, and threw out a "have a great day." Which I would have taken as a please leave my store, had I not already been standing in the doorway halfway out at the time. I guess it was worth the show, in hindsight. I've gotten some mileage out of that story already. p.s. after telling someone the story, I decided to look the item, brand new, up on Amazon. Remember, he wanted $20 for a broken, unpackaged edition (see attachment)

I came into this Dollar Tree for an Uber Eats Shop & Pay order, and finally gave up all hope of…read morefinding two of the items. Maria was in the middle of stocking when she stopped what she was doing to help me search. She checked the back for the first thing. No luck. I showed her a second photo and we both agreed that they usually had it, but since I had not seen it on my search, Maria went looking again, found it under several flats of juice, and then proceeded to move the flats to reach it. I cringed and offered to help. She laughed and told me they would not let me back there because of OSHA. That made me laugh, but it also made me furious on her behalf. Nobody should have to move five flats of juice to retrieve one item because a store's stocking system is chaotic. Maria should not have had to do that much physical labor for a single customer request. She did it anyway. She was patient, funny, kind, and completely unflustered. Then we walked over to the shelf together and of course immediately saw that there was an entire fully stocked section of the Arnold Palmer Lite drink exactly where I had somehow failed to see it. "I am blind! I'm so sorry!" but the two of us laughed so hard. Maria had just excavated one lonely item from under a mountain while I had somehow overlooked at least 50 bottles of it. Yolanda was handling the front of the store while Maria returned to stocking. There were only two people working. I had a cart full of 27 separate items to move onto the belt, so I was not fast. While I was unloading the cart I told Yolanda exactly what Maria had just done for me. Maria could hear from the aisle and kept saying, "It's nothing, it's nothing," while laughing. It was not nothing. Then Yolanda told me that a woman had come in just before me and spent about $400. "Is that a record?" I asked. "No..." Yolanda laughed. "During Christmas they spend more." "But as a non-holiday-related purchase it was a record?" I asked. "No. She buys supplies for homeless families." Yolanda explained. The staff recognizes her, knows what she is doing, and helps her when she comes in. That is the store I walked into: two workers doing the labor of far more than two people, helping customers with patience and humor, recognizing a regular customer who is quietly building a material bridge to families who need help, and making the whole place feel briefly like a functioning piece of civilization. Maria and Yolanda were both extraordinary. Two women building a better world with every breath -- right here from inside this Dollar Tree.

Every week I go to Dollar ree in Bensenville IL and they are always out of items I always buy, I…read morehave to go to Addison store to get what I need. They shelves are not stocked they just spread the items around to look like the shelves are full. Some items are not restocked at this Dollar tree but other Dollar tree restock the items. They raised the prices and give you less like the square tins you use to get 3 now you get 2. I even thanked Addison Dollar tree for restocking their shelves and having what I need. I should not have to travel out of my way to get what I want when I live a few blocks from Bensenville Dollar Tree.

Just an update of my review from almost 10 years ago, as I have had the opportunity to really check…read morethis place out many more times and actually buy some nice things here. Much different than my quick "walk-thru" some years back where I was just in and out and wasn't able to leave a real proper review. Lots of little interesting shops, gift stores, clothing vendors, and many other kiosks inside. Again as if my first review, there is a nice nostalgia with me as I remember this place as "North Park Mall" various decades ago. If you are looking for nice gifts, stuffed animals, and cute crafted items for a significant other, there is lots to see here. Many many nice quality stuff animals too at BARGAIN rates. I enjoy walking around in here now 1-2 times a month, and have met some nice people and vendors working there. Overall the cater is towards Hispanics, but I see people of all sorts walking around. Def worth checking out, but you have to give it a few FAIR and thorough walk-a-rounds to let everything seep in.

I walked inside out of curiosity and felt like I walked into the closet in Narnia and I was inside…read morea whole different world, like on vacation in Mexico and there was stall after stall of shops. There was a food vendor right by the entrance and a huge jewelry booth. As I walked deeper in, I saw a few labubu, clothes, health food store, and cowboy boots and apparels. All the shops were clean and organized. I couldn't believe how deep this venue went and keep walking until I got to the Michoacna! I had no idea there was one inside of this place. If you need ice cream, pinatas, cowboy gear or clothes, you will want to stop by here to check it out. The entrance is a few doors down from Discovery. .|\---/| | @_@ | ..\_^_/..2025
