Dollar Tree

Oh my! First of all, I am a teacher who visits these types of stores periodically to look for little treasures for my prize box, and it is really only a few times per year. Secondly, don’t have super high expectations for discount stores, nor am I super particular. With that being said, this store literally is suffering from neglect. It looks like a bomb went off inside. Ok, I thought… maybe they just got a load of product in an they were a bit behind. No, that would not explain the filthy spotted carpet throughout the store. This is the cheap stuff you remove and replace. Products misplaced and things strewn on the floors, and general disarray everywhere. It seemed like there is a lack of management and leadership at this location.

Well this is your average dollar tree. Slightly dirty, and full of cheap stuff. BUT there is some real fun cheap stuff in there if you are looking hard enough.
It is a great place to take little kids and let them get cheap toys and candy. Actually I think the candy is a really good deal!
Depending on the time of year there are different things pertaining to holidays, back to school, ect. But there is always cheap food (which I personally think mostly isn’t too good) and school supplies, party supplies, and just a whole bunch of random things.
This store isn’t very clean, and sometimes lines can be long. But you get what you pay for, literally.

Gross! I felt dirty just leaving this place. It smelled really bad and there were large stains all over the carpets. Avoid! Avoid! Avoid! Sometimes a good deal just isn’t worth it.

I don’t know what ya’ll are expecting when you walk into a dollar tree but I come here for fun cheap things to buy for the kids I work with and this place delivers! Great for when you’re on a budget :) Ay girl, it’s a recession. No need to pretend you don’t appreciate saving a few dollars!
Dollar Tree is a great stop to grab fun little toys or art & crafts supplies for kids. They also have a lot of holiday/​party decorations and even a balloon counter if you’re planning a birthday surprise! It can get a little messy in the aisles and don’t expect great service here but heck I don’t care when everything only costs a dollar! If you are on a budget, come here before you go to a bigger chain store because you will definitely spend more elsewhere.

Time to splurge

Tustin Ave only in Orange… main is not so great

It’s the dollar tree…
No one should expect much service unless you ask, that’s a given.
I went in for some cards, stickers… fun things to decorate with my little cousins.
Generally most Dollar Trees have quite a few things for arts & crafts, mainly for children.
If you are on a budget, always come in here before you go to any bigger place.

The customer service is HORRIBLE. there is non. Of course I should expect that from Dollar Tree. I make a large bulk purchase online that was to be shipped to the store. When I called the store to confirm if it had arrived and ready for pick up. the response was «what». After asking the question again for the second time I got «call back in 15. we’re busy». WTF. really?!!
Now I’m going to drive my A$$ down there whether my order is there or not and find out where my stuff is.

my go to place for wrapping paper, party supplies, cards.
This location was just remodeled, too. It’s awesome!

Greeting Cards are 2 for $ 1.

I’ve recently fallen in love with dollar stores, as we’re planning for our wedding and need lots of little knick knacks and decorative items; however, I am not particularly fond of this Dollar Tree. At all.
Upon entering the store, there were huge queues and shopping trolleys EVERYWHERE. I’m glad the store is doing a booming business, but it was a bit unbearable.
The aisles look like they hadn’t been tidied in ages; stuff was EVERYWHERE. (And this was only about noon!).
I got mowed over by two shopping trolleys and no one bothered to apologize.
They may have had what I was looking for, but we did an about-​face and walked right out! Too hectic, too manic, and just not worth it!

My friend and colleague asked me to drive her to the Dollar Tree during lunch as she carpools to work. I obliged and we drove through traffic to get there.
FYI, there is major traffic on Main Street as there is construction to improve the road.
There are no known Dollar Stores in Irvine and as a result I am sheltered.
We arrived and the store is packed with women and children. If you know me, I have an aversion to large crowds. I have one word for you «pathology.» Just sayin’
I turned the corner to enter into one of the aisles and a huge woman nearly plowed me over. I look stunned and I hope that I did not offend her. X_​X
But, I will say that her poor tank top was stretched like stressed pizza dough and as thin as phyllo — I have a motto «no free shows.» Maybe I should have shared.
Furthermore, behind her was her husband who was equally as voluminous. They did not have any children though, so I think the theory reigns true — you know what I am alluding to… By sheer deductive reasoning. You do the math. = p
Aside from the multifarious individuals and miscellaneous crowd the store has a wide inventory of processed food, greeting cards, children’s toys, beverages, gardening tools, household items and party favors.
It’s a hoarders paradise and a minimalist’s hell.
Cheers!

This had to be the worst Dollar Tree I’ve been to. The other ones are much brighter, cleaner, organized, bigger, and offer more. I was excited that there was one close to where I live but man this one sucks. I mainly go there for gift bags because why would I want to spend so much money on just a bag?! Yes, I can be cheap but if the bag looks nice, why not buy it? Besides it’s what is inside the bag that counts, right?! The selection of bags is limited and most of the time ugly and wrinkled. Hey, I want to get the most out of my dollar!!! I love how I can buy a pack of different colored tissues.

Sooo, basically, this store is alot smaller than the rest of the Dollar Trees in my area. It is always kind of messy, and I’m not sure why…
They have a decent selection of frozen foods, which one time I bought a 6 pack of frozen lemonade slushie! soooooo gooddd! =]
There are also alot of frozen meals like fettuccine alfredo and mac n cheese, which is kind of cool if you want to get something quick to eat at home later. This store also has alot of random stuff, like lunchables, ham, and weird types of cold juices.
I will say though, that this store has a pretty good selection of party supplies. Alot of colored spoons and plates and table cloths! Nice.
If you come here however, be warned that when this place is crowded, ITS CROWDED! It might take you a while to get out of the damn store!

You say that it’s a recession and you can’t afford the finer things in life.
I say, head to Dollar Tree and pick up a big shiny «diamond» ring for $ 1.
You say that times are tough and you can’t afford a gift for your boyfriend’s birthday.
I say, pick up a «Happy Quinceanera» figurine and «Brutal» aftershave: $ 2
You say you wanna cook a schmancy casserole, with lots of fresh veggies?
Well, tough titties. Head to 99 Cents Only store, because this Dollar Tree ain’t got no produce.
You say you wanna get it on with that significant other of yours, but can’t afford birth control.
I say, get your ass over to Dollar Tree… four condoms for $ 1.
You say those cheap condoms didn’t work so well… and now you’re afraid you may be *ahem* late.
Well, good news: Pregnancy tests. Just a buck!
