Dollar Tree

Although the stock is usually very good at this location, the service on busy days during peak season is awfully slow and understaffed. Will this deter me from visiting this dollar tree? Nope. Will I unhappily sip my well-​priced beverage while I wait in line for 15 minutes before they get another cashier from the back? Absolutely.
Like any Folsomite, I think it’s great we have a dollar store. It’s a great place to go for cheap items or basics that you don’t want to give an arm for. Decently sized and plenty of options whether you are hunting for seasonal, party, or office supplies, cheap cooking utensils, simple beauty supplies, or family movie candy.
I like this dollar store and plan on continuing to shop here. I just think they need to plan a little better during the busy seasons during holidays and graduation ;)

A good Indian store in Folsom. As the name suggests they carry many of the items from Kerala (state in India). Amex is not accepted here

Love the dollar store for the fun items and bargain prices… do not love the poor customer service. I was in the $ store today and had a return. Brand new unopened Saran Wrap and zip bags. The clerk Shasta made a big deal about the return in front of a line of people and left her current customer waiting while she argued about the return policy. I actually had to tell her to continue to help her customer and I would come back. So instead of disrupting the other customers I located a manager who explained the policy (which is a horrible one but not his fault) and agreed to exchange my whopping 3 items. He said the profits were low because everything was a dollar, I explained the profits are high because the costs are extremely low and everything is from China! Anyway, when I got to the front Shasta loudly explained again we cannot return your items, I told her that it was ok because I got approval from a manager. Shasta was furious and then started rolling her eyes and whispering to her current customers in line who proceeded to look over their shoulders at me. We are talking about $ 3 here people! Hey Shasta… very unprofessional! Hey management more training in the customer service arena please. Thank you so much. You can still have me as a customer ;)

Stopped by to pick up candy and snacks before our movie and they had an extensive selection of candy. The store is really big and i’m glad we stopped by instead of spending a bunch of money at the concessions at the theater.

I’m so glad we have a Dollar Tree in Folsom. They really have forced regular grocery stores and pharmacies to lower their prices. I buy all my liquid hand soaps, cotton swabs, nail polish remover, stocking stuffers and comet here. It took me a long time to come around to shop here but now I’m hooked. They also have a wide variety of cooking spices from which to choose. Greeting cards at 2 for $ 1.00. How can you beat that? I also like the people this store hires. They are all very interesting, genuine and unique individuals who are always willing to go that extra step to help.

I was just in yesterday and the friendliest most helpful checker I have ever seen, THERESA, made our day by showing us how to correctly swipe our card which always fails to work other than how she showed us.
She helped out everyone in line in one way or anther and should be manager ASAP as her customer respect and care could not be beaten.

The store seems fine – fairly well-​stocked and organized. They are rarely out of the items like I generally like to buy here. I’ve gone to this store for years and can def. note that there’s been a steady decline in customer service – namely at the check out! The check out here is PAINFULLY slow – and they seem to have two gears – slow and slower! There never seems to be any sense whatsoever of urgency – sometimes I marvel while I’m waiting for the person in front of me to check out with her $ 30 worth of glass ware – while i’m watching the clerk slowly wrap up each item in newspaper – that the employees behind him stocking and the line behind me growing – why don’t they open another register or PLEASE get a self-​check out system already! I’m not even an impatient person – but, it’s just that utter lack of efficiency that grates on me! My last couple of trips here – I’ve been coming to the conclusion that I’d rather not save the few bucks – if it means I won’t be put through a ring of Dante’s Inferno to get my envelopes and tape!

This is a great location and the store is well stocked. I go to the one where I live in Reno often, but this one is bigger and has more selection. The thing that makes me the most excited for is the $ 1 gnocchi! Most places sell it for more, but you can get some for cheap right here. Surprisingly, it even tastes good for being so cheap.
The cleanliness of the store is good, too, in all the times I’ve been. I buy many essentials here and of course the prices cannot be beat. This is my favorite dollar store.

I come here a lot because the stuff they have can be found in any store but here its only $ 1! Very convenient! The staff has also always been nice :) it’s really worth coming here to find what you need!

I checked out the reviews on Unilocal before I arrived and was excited to visit this HUGE Dollar Tree. I’ve driven past it numerous times and now actually had a purpose to go in.
I was looking for candle holders for my candles that I would place in the living room and wanted to be crafty and make candle pillars out of two candle holders (by hot glueing them together).
I went online and searched their website for candle holders and yes they did have some online. I called their store to ensure that they had it in the store only to be told by the person that answered the phone to call back in 5 minutes. No apology or no customer service whatsoever, just «can you call back in 5 minutes?».
Okay, I never called back because I was busy.
I drove in, went inside and found what I was looking for. Their employees were not working very hard, appeared to be talking about personal matters in front of customers, even the guy ringing people up was talking to another employee across the way and making stupid jokes. Really, what ever happened to focusing on the customer and engaging the customer by having a conversation with the customer. Hello?!
Regardless, the store is organized, had everything that I was looking for and more. I had to dock two points for the lack of customer service. Sure, I’ll be back but reluctantly.

I come here for certain things which you would almost have to be silly to buy anywhere else.
Mother’s Day cards, super-​cute chipboard ones with embellishments, were only $ 1. My mom and sisters all freaked out thinking I went to Hallmark or something.
Gift wrap, gift bags, gift tags, tissue paper, ribbons, bows, etc., all always $ 1, and they have great selections for every occasion. Same goes for party favors, especially for children’s birthday parties.
Picture frames, cheap toys for child-​bribery, wine glasses, etc. I wouldn’t personally trust the food or hygiene items, but they do have them, and once in a while they will have name brand items that got discontinued at big chain stores.
Downside: This place is a little dirty and disorganized, and I would only use the bathrooms if it were an actual emergency, but you get what you pay for. At least the cashiers are *usually* friendly.
The last time I was here, though, come to think of it, the cashiers were having a very personal conversation, including laughter, over the loud-​speaker. Since I work retail, I found this to be very unprofessional and displeasing. Hopefully it was just a one-​time occurrence.

The best place to buy gift bags, cards, bows and tissue hands down. I stocked up at Christmas and saved a fortune. Great gift tags too. Oh and I bought some great glasses that would have cost at least $ 5 each had I bought them at another retailer. I’m not big on dollar stores in general but this place is great.

Dollar Store heaven! This is one of the best dollar stores I’ve been too. It’s HUGE with lots of stuff! Things are well organized and not a mess like a lot of dollar stores. The staff is friendly too.

Nothing beats a case of the blahs like some cheap retail therapy and doing something for someone else.
This is a PSA.
If you’re short on cash and happen to be the crafty type, forget Michael’s and head to the Dollar Tree Store for upcoming holiday/​birthday presents. This year, it is the thought that counts and hopefully inspires laughter — if not *with* you than *at* you. Just as long as they’re laughing … or slightly uncomfortable.
Walk around the store, set your price limit and conjure up what money can’t buy: tacky, homemade creativity.
My sister is having a baby girl in January and so I headed to the meager craft isle and decided on making a name plaque to hang on her wall.
Five bucks got me a square wooden piece with a ribbon attached for hanging, pastel cotton balls, miniature cutouts of ducks and bunnies and some adorable beads — which I will use to spell out her name — and a small picture frame which I will glue to the middle of the plaque.
I will do this for my adult friends, too. I will act like it’s a real present and say «do you like it??» with all the earnest intonation I can muster.
