Shopping in San Diego, California…read more.. I was early for dinner, so I had some time to walk across the parking lot to visit Five Below. I learned about this chain (that we don't have in Hawaii) from Yelpers in Los Angeles. The merchandise (costing five dollars and less, in general) is geared towards the younger generation because they have cute merchandise (like stickers and bag charms), candy, books for adolescents, and items for dorm rooms. I saw many Hello Kitty things... and Snoopy... and Stitch! It was so challenging to resist! I decided on a greeting card for a dollar... and a pack of stickers... because this purchase can fit in my suitcase easily! Gosh... I wish we had Five Below in the 50th State!

First time entering this store in Mira Mesa. It's like shopping at Daiso. You'd pick up and…read morepurchase items you might not necessarily on your shopping list. It's perfect if you need little toys or candy or items for a kid's birthday party or a grab bag or if you have time to browse on a Sunday morning.

Took off 1 star for one annoying cashier girl. I've said no to donating for whatever fundraiser they've been having, and she wouldn't stop. I literally had to walk away from her begging and trying to guilt trip me -- even though I regularly donate to charities on my own time. Not through a purchase at a discount store lol. I also witnessed her being way too pushy with other customers to a point they walked out of the store without buying anything. Daiso management at this location, please do better. The other cashiers don't do this, so consider retraining.

Ummmm last time I checked, I don't work at Daiso so put a freaking bell at the counter that can be rung to let you know we need assistance up front you imbecile!! Another thing, when you purchase a bag how the heck are we supposed to get it? Walk behind the counter and get it ourselves?

I just wanted to share how impressed I am with the Dollar Tree at 4140 Clairemont Mesa Blvd, San…read moreDiego, CA 92117. This location is incredibly clean, organized, and honestly one of the most welcoming dollar stores I've ever been in. I've been to many dollar stores where things feel cluttered or chaotic, but this one feels open, tidy, and very well stocked every time I visit. You can tell the staff really take pride in keeping the store looking great and maintaining it in pristine condition. I especially want to recognize David and Kristen. David works really hard to make sure the store always stays clean, organized, and well stocked. He's constantly moving around the store restocking items, straightening shelves, and keeping everything tidy. I've also noticed that if the checkout line ever gets more than a few people deep, he quickly jumps on a register to help out, stopping whatever he's doing to make sure the flow of checkout keeps moving smoothly. Kristen is wonderful behind the counter. She is always smiling and asking customers how they are doing, which makes the experience feel very welcoming and personal. She keeps friendly conversation going while also staying attentive to the line and making sure everyone is helped in a timely manner. She balances being warm and personable while also managing the checkout process efficiently. I truly wish more dollar stores had the same positive, welcoming vibe this one does. It's such a pleasant place to shop, and you can really tell the staff care about the store and the customers. Highly recommend this location. -Margaret

Uodated 2025 Review -…read more What once was the 99cent store has been the Dollar Tree for awhile now. This place has been remodeled to accommodate the Dollar Tree layout and spaced out, as the Dollar tree is typically smaller. Having said that everytime I've come over the past year, it seems that what use to be full shelves are quite empty... here we are 11 days in December and many Christmas items are not restocked, they are just letting their inventory sell out. Which sucks, the Dollar tree use to be the for sure place to get last minute items. Having said that, other essential items are mostly in stock like toothbrushes and floss... ive come to rely on my cheap "glue-on nails" when im in between nail appts. However what i may get one day, is not the same offered the following visit. So when you find something you like, buy a few. Otherwise, the staff is always friendly, always a line and they do try to have 2 cashiers available when busy. Parking is easy for this location and its location in the Clairemont Town Square shopping center, so you don't have to go put of your way if you are planning to shop at orher stores.

Wow! When I walked it I was so impressed. They had two floors of clothes. The first floor was more…read morespacious and everything was color coordinated. Then you go upstairs and they had more clothes, shoes, purses and home/kitchen stuff. They only have 2 fitting rooms so there is a line. Sometimes it goes by fast depending on how much the person has to try on. The value is really good since they had popular and high brands of clothes there. Some of them still had the tags on and even tho they didn't have tags on them they were in great condition. Everyone who worked there was very nice. Definitely coming back here again!

My husband went into the Dollar Tree today to pick up some holiday cards, to his surprise there was…read morea plethora of Christmas cards to choose from and for a great value. My husband raved about the superb customer service offered by the kind staff working at the Dollar Tree Mira Mesa, three lanes were open and the staff were friendly and hard working. Exemplary service was offered by cashier attendant Diego. He was courteous, timely, and made my husband feel welcome. This service really seems to stem from the top down. The store manager Johnny welcomed customers and was very personable. Johnny genuinely cared for the customers and was setting a great example for his team. The store manager Johnny also modeled to all how a leader should be. He made sure his staff were comfortable and assured them that their breaks would be coming. I think more retailers should exemplify this as staff can feel overloaded during the Christmas Holiday Season. Johnny and Team Dollar Tree, thank you for the great customer service and value products you offer. We will be coming back. Happy Holidays!

The people working there are incredibly nice and very helpful which is remarkable how many people get in and how demanding some customers can be.

I have to say I've been a very long time customers since the very first DAISO opened!!!... What I LOVE to get are: SNACKS: They usually have the best prices and deals for getting snack like PIZZA CHIPS, RAMEN CHIPS, EDAMAME CHIPS, POTATO CHIPS and more! HIDDEN GEM: The okonomiyaki mix is the best here! And it also comes with the sauce. I just add some purple cabbage, mushrooms, eggs and shrimp and it tastes amazing!! Get it while supplies last!!!! The Hokkaido cream BUN is so delicious!! I first discovered it here at DAISO. I fell in love with a Hokkaido bun... There's so many cute things here.

You can now shop and purchase all of your items without ever being greeted by or even spoken to by a worker. Not good. Visited last night and there were 2 works, both on the floor stocking product.
