Dollar Tree

I usually wouldn’t review a dollar store but the customer service is terrible. There is one register open with about 15 customers in line and I have a 5 year old that needs to use the restroom and they don’t have public restrooms… So what your telling me is that I need to put my items back and leave and come back. No thanks. And when I have about 15 items she asks me if I need a bag? Well being that you guys don’t allow carts outside I think so… Instead of all these rules when I shop. I’ll just go to another location.

The most stocked and clean of all the Dollar Tree stores I’ve been to. Raven has also been very helpful and courteous the few times that I’ve visited the store

Not all dollar trees are the same. I learned this on a recent visit to this one in pursuit of a pool noodle. Why seek out a pool noodle in the dead of winter, you ask? They are commonly used to help angle baby car seats, but that is beside the point.
I found this Dollar Tree to have less of a selection than the store downtown or further up Folsom Blvd. Usually I can come in seeking one item and will inevitably leave with $ 20 worth of crap I didn’t need. This was the first time I glanced at the shelves and wasn’t impressed by the selection or the total lack of certain smaller items (toothbrushes?) I was seeking.
That’s not to say this Dollar Tree is bad, and it may well have been an off day considering I came during the peak of the holidays.

I just have to review this store and say how helpful one of the employees was in going out of his way to find a particular item for me (young Hispanic gentleman). He scowered the isles to help me find a particular crafting item, which I couldn’t find. He even offered to call another store and locate another item for me which was out of stock in their store. It was super refreshing to receive this kind of 5 star customer service– especially since its just a Dollar Tree Store.

I love dollar tree, but, it does have some issues. I brought party favors there and none of them worked. Likewise, the lighters I got there did not work. Also, the lines are too long and they rarely open up an extra line unless you ask. The food section does have some deals and their painting supplies section and tool section is very good. I have saved a bundle on paint brushes.

This Dollar Tree is basically in the Folsom Blvd bus depot. Expect there to be at least 1 crazy person causing some kind of scene.
As with most Dollar Trees in the area, taking your life in your hands is the price you pay for those sweet discounts.

Actually a pretty great place. I expected it to be lacking = it was just want I needed.

I went into Dollar Tree to return some decorations from a baby shower I threw a few months ago. I bought a TON of decorations and just didn’t use them all. I always buy way more than I need just in case!
When I walked in the lines were short which was AWESOME because sometimes when I got into a Dollar Tree it seems like they ALWAYS have an incredibly long line.
I walked in with my bag of returns, receipt in hand ready when a Dollar Tree employee stopped me and asked if I was making an exchange. She informed me that they do not do returns, only exchanges… I was pretty bummed about this but I thought, Oh well, I’m sure I can find something better than baby decorations and of course I did!
When I checked out the cashier was polite and quick. She made the exchange process simple and I was out pretty fast! What more could I ask for?!

I love the dollar store! This one definitely needs work though. Every time I enter/​exit this place, there is always some crazy person hanging out outside causing a scene.
They do have the most amazing smelling soy candles though. They also have a wide variety of junk food and one time use plates for picnics!
Just be careful… If you are anything like me, you will find yourself going in for one thing and leaving with a full cart!

I have no opinion on Dollar Tree (or other dollar-​themed discount) stores. They exist, therefore they are. There they sit. Full of things for a dollar. Some essential, some equaling more stuff to clutter a home and fritter away money on. It exists in a physical location and thus, we posit that it simply is.
It truly is a building, in a physical location, stocked with all manner of items that cost one American dollar. A greenback. A simolean. A clam. A buck. A bank note.
They have food. Mostly in tins, or off-​brands, or cookies or other similar items that have long shelf-​lives. They have kitchen goods. Lots of them and often of very decent quality. Many varieties of drinking utensils. They have Candy. They have beauty supplies. They have toiletries. They have greeting cards. They have toys. They have books. They have seasonal goods. They have auto supplies. They have cleaning supplies. They have religious paraphernalia. They have figurines for decorating a home.
All for a buck. You load up a basket with items and they count them and each one is a buck and then you exchange tender for goods and go home with said items and utilize them in various ways.
This happens. It is; it simply is. For a dollar.

Surprisingly this is another one of the few organized and neat Dollar Tree stores. This is another good spot for cheap snacks (pretzels, crackers, etc) as well as party supplies like plastic utensils and table cloths. There are also other goodies to be found, such as cheap plastic storage containers and freezer bags which we use for sectioning bulk purchases and the like. In addition, when we are doing a big camping trip or day at the river with lots of kids, we will pick up cheap sand toys, water noodles, beach balls, etc. Cheap and good fun! During the holidays this can also be a good spot for finding holiday party stuff, items to create the ugly sweaters or other costumes that a lot of the parties we go to seem to request of their guests, and of course the silly stocking stuffers for that Secret Santa recipient at work.

BEST Dollar store I’ve ever been to! Large selection and it was clean and organized! We needed materials for a party (themed party) and we literally bought almost everything we needed at this location! We spent $ 90, but I know we saved more than we spent if we got our items at Party City or some other party place.
Customer service was pretty good too! We bought so much stuff that a line started to form as we were being processed and the lady called for back up instead of letting the other customers wait. Location is next to a light rail, but security is really good and if you have too many items they will help you to your car :)

I went in to put together some filled «shoebox» donations for kids and ended up with so much more stuff. Right now they have a lot of Christmas stuff out and I had to grab some wrapping stuff. $ 1 for rolls of wrapping paper, gift bags, bows, gift boxes, gift tags, etc. Everyone was friendly in the store and everything was in great order.

Sometimes you need to go on a treasure hunt.

I have found this Dollar Tree to be below average. It’s not a large location but that’s not a very good excuse for poor selection in my book. They just don’t seem to get in the nicer little things I’ve seen at the two other Dollar Tree Stores I shop here in Sac. Their crew is okay, but the turnover rate is crazy high so their knowledge of the store is limited. I had reason to ask a question of one of the managers the other day and he seemed barely interested in talking to me. I will say the store is pretty clean and neat and for me it’s conveniently close. However, if there were another Dollar Tree or 99Cent Store as close I would very likely avoid this location altogether.

This location is very clean and usually has a good selection of various staple items. I like the fact that I can run in here for work and pick up office supplies or some kleenex and don’t have to fight the crowds for parking, fight the crowds in line and wait forever to be rung up. (Wal-​Mart/​Target – take notice!) The staff is friendly and parking is good. A great place when you need a last minute gift bag or office item!

This Dollar Tree is a hidden jewel and I always forget to review them although the place is clean, organized, has plenty of parking and usually fast checkout lines.
Well, there ya go…

Clutch!
I always forget about this Dollar Tree that is in the most random location. Nestled in a very nondescript section of Folsom Boulevard, where many of the other places are currently vacant.
I was on the hunt for balloons. I was expecting the rubber ones, but not at this DT, they’re fancy. They only sell Mylar ones and they’re $ 1 (duh!)! Such a gem. Almost all of the options are already blown up in multiple quantities, so you don’t really need an employee to come over and help, although they will if you need assistance.
Nicest DT crew I’v ever experienced. I’ve been to my share of DT & 99 cent stores — hey, I’m a baller-​on-​a-​budget, and this one, by far, kills it with kindness.
They have tons of the random junk that all the other stores, but as many have alluded to its very organized. Stuff isn’t on the floor or jammed in the wrong shelf. Its kept very well and I almost, just almost feel like I’m NOT in a DT.
I absolutely adore the idea of shopping where everything costs $ 1. I don’t have to worry about if its on sale or regular priced. Its carefree shopping, cause if it sucks or breaks it was only $ 1.
A secret gem of $ 1 proportions!

This is the cleanest dollar store I’ve been to in my whole life and I was pleasantly surprised that most of the customers were not crack heads, hookers or stoner’s. I suspect the reason is it’s close proximity to east sac. All you get are old people buying knick knacks to hoard or toys for their thousands of cats.
I recently moved in the area so this place was a nice surprise in the neighborhood. This is my new place to buy random crap for my house.

Dollar Tree is fun. I do NOT recommend buying any household products that are not brand name, because trust me, they are crap! Window cleaner does not work @ all! Also, WTF, they sell pregnancy tests??? People, you REALLY should shell out more than ONE DOLLAR for such an important item. But hell, if you get a «NEGATIVE» result and in 9 months a baby pops into the toilet when you thought you just had poop cramps, no biggie. Haul your cheap butt back to the Dollar Tree & spend $ 20 and you’ll have all the crappy made in china baby gear you need.
I give this place 4 stars because it is great for stopping in BEFORE u go to target, looking at your giant list, and saving a TON on certain items. Like hand soap, toothpaste, plastic forks, whatevs. This is a great place for party supplies!
The cashier situation sucks though. Usually only one person, slow as all hell.
