Dollar Tree - The penny queen strikes again

Stopped in on 4/16/2026 to purchase discounted Easter candy (sadly, most of which they had already…read moretossed per directive from corporate). Cashier told the manager "these are all ringing up a penny." Manager told him unfortunately he has to sell to me, then proceeded to berate me in front of 2 lines of customers, saying "Oh, you're one of those Penny Queens. This store is notorious for penny shoppers like you. Well, I'm the new manager now, and that's going to change now that I'm in charge." I told her I guess they'd rather have perfectly good product sitting in a landfill. I let her know that I donate all the items I find for a penny, asked if the store does the same or whether they toss it. She claims she herself donates to veterans. I said GREAT! Not sure why she took issue with me donating perfectly good product to my local women's shelters and food pantry. I urge all "Penny Queens" to continue to shop here and say hello to the new manager with a power trip and attitude. :) Also, what is it about Dollar Trees always smelling like weed? It's like they pipe it into their HVAC system. LOL

The female was taking her time and saying no I don't like that one OH I LOVE THAT ONE. I asked if I could leave my dollar on the counter with tax and clerk said NO! I asked if she was going to blow up all thos balloons before she waited on the people in front of me and she said NO I WILL RUN YOU THOUGH first. The female came up to me and SAID I AM FIRST IN LINE NOT YOU SO WAIT YOUR TURN! I put my dollar item down and left and said to the 3 elderly people in front of me, sorry I tried to help. I will never go back to that store. As there is no customer service or ethics.

Cute gift shop with a friendly owner! I came here to try to find some holiday gifts, wasn't really…read moresure what I was looking for. A lot to browse and many options. I finally found an awesome lighthouse paint by numbers that I snagged for my sister in law. Though it was a bit pricey, I felt good supporting a local business vs Michaels. While I was shopping I could hear the owner on the phone with a customer assisting them and not rushing to get them to hang up which is very nice. Once I checked out she offered to wrap it for me with no extra charge. I thought it was such a special touch. She also has an adorable dog that was behind the counter who was a friendly old lady. As an animal lover this is always bonus points in my life. It seems as she hosts some type of events, has some space in the back not sure if it's for crafts? But worth checking out! Plenty of parking!

Brissonte is my go-to place if I need a gift, some chocolates or just some me time to browse and…read morelook at all the lovely products Colleen carries. I always something new! Christmas gifts, birthday gifts, thinking of you gifts, cards; I can always find the perfect gift to give! For me, besides the chocolates, I love the Swan Creek soy candles and all the soaps. Colleen stocks her shop with products I do not see anywhere else. Brissonte is a gem in North Reading!

This is my favorite grocery store in the area other than Costco, and this shoutout is long overdue…read more The prices are, like all Market Baskets, incredibly low compared to other stores, and they still have a great inventory (except for Alfredo sauce--for some strange reason they only have Rao's and Ragu amidst a sea of red sauces). I've always been greeted with kind staff members and a friendly face at the register, so top marks to all the people who work here. Perhaps my favorite section of the store is the perennially busy hot food bar: they cook up a cheap but amazingly good steak bomb (always add spicy mayo on it, trust me, it's the secret sauce), sweet potato fries, honey BBQ wings, and divinely seasoned potato wedges. I'm telling you, these are consistently the best potato wedges you will ever eat. Yep, you heard it from me: Market Basket has the best fries. Anywhere. I once asked them if they were baked or fried and received the most hilarious response: "Yes. [pause] They are fried. [pause] In oil." I will note, though, that sometimes the wings and spinach swirl pies are burnt, so do purchase them judiciously on any given day. Also, the wings that need to be heated up at home and that are sold in the refrigerated section below the hot food bar are vastly inferior--don't go for them if you can get the fresh wings: they're definitely made differently. The store is always bursting with people and is somewhat cramped compared to wholesale stores, but it's actually on the bigger side for an MB. The Stop & Shop just outside (which some MB regulars will take the liberty of visiting immediately afterward, myself included, to check for several items on sale that compete with MB) feels like a ghost town in comparison. Lastly, in terms of current COVID precautions taken: the store is no longer enforcing mask-wearing, and at least 60% of shoppers (I was last there a couple days ago) forego mask wearing (if not more). In addition, not all staff members are wearing masks anymore. Social distancing is difficult because the store is quite cramped as I mentioned previously.

This was the last place I shopped before getting all my food stamps stolen last Friday, 9/11/26…read more Pretty sure the employees were operating a skimmer machine. I'm homeless already but now I'm starving as well. Eff this place. Be careful.
