Dollar Tree

This used to be my favorite DT to go to, however, over the past year they hardly have things in stock… Items are always on the floor or disorganized and the staff are rude as hell … I’m gonna try others around my area once again before I come to this location again …

I love shopping at dollar stores. Everything is really for just a dollar! This one was okay, I didn’t see much variety of items and the store was not as large as some of the other ones I’ve been in. It was also rather messy and was hard to move around. But I still ended up spending around $ 15 dollars with useful items.

WARNING! Dollar Tree #3003 opens at 9 AM on Sundays, not at 8 AM! Dollar Tree needs to update their hours on their website.

I go to Dollar Tree for specific items:
GREETING CARDS! ($ 1 each or 2 for $ 1)
Wrapping paper and bags
cleaning supplies
kids arts and crafts supplies— crayons, coloring books, stencils, stickers…
q tips and cotton balls
paper plates
holiday decorations
The store is well organized and there is plenty of parking!

My son is having a birthday shortly. I was able to make all the little children a goodie bag under $ 40. I was so happy and thrilled. They have such a amazing selection of really neat stuff there. Very happy, I am always looking for a great deal. They always have such neat, cool items to choose from.

People like to make fun of me for my love of dollar stores, but they just don’t know any better. The Dollar Tree is a place of wonder and excitement, where untold treasures await! Three-​pack of microfiber wash cloths? Check. Dinner plates and decorative wicker baskets? Yep, got those too. Hair ties, shower caps, and claw clips? Yes, yes, and yes.
I’m an especially big fan of their range of food — they sell the most delicious, crispity-​crunchity sugar-​free cookies ever. I’ve never seen them anywhere else, so I buy bags of them five at a time. Makes me feel like a snack-​food kingpin.
…I can sense your fear and confusion. You seem to have taken a few steps away from me and towards the exit. That’s perfectly fine. Just means more cheap snacklets for me.
The staff here is usually friendly and helpful. Depending on the day, it can get a little hectic and disorganized though. I always find something unexpectedly awesome when I take the time to look — if you randomly need an extra martini glass or something, this is a great place to go. Show up early on Sunday morning to avoid the crowds, and wait for the magic of a Dollar Tree deal to reveal itself to you.

Yes, it is true. Everything here– Absolutely Everything– is just a $.
Even better… some things are two for a $. Or three for a $. Or even four for a $. Nothing is more than a $. Come with a few of your precious $s and you may leave with a large bag full of cheap goodies. Some will even brighten your life and make you feel like a very smart shopper.
What can you find at The Dollar Tree?
Seasonal decorative items for every holiday (especially Christmas), picture frames, glow sticks, wreaths, bags of shells, coloring books, candles, lots of craft supplies, ribbon, balloons, stickers, books, cleaning supplies, plates, mugs, food, beauty products, wrapping paper, birthday cards and so much more.
Read the labels, fight off the massive crowds and lines, and cope with probable germs of a serious nature, as this store is grungy and beat up. But in a way, that is part of the charm.
If you use your debit card to pay and want cash back, guess what? It will cost you a $.
If you go on weekends, guess what? There are some unemployed gentlemen out front who are eager for a $.
It’s all part of the experience at The Dollar Tree.

Really one of the better dollar stores I’ve been to. The main reason is a great variety of items-​instead of the same old junk that a lot of other dollar stores carry.
Come here for cheap decorations, some home accents, office/​bathroom supplies

This is the best place to get some cheap decorations — I picked up floating candles and ribbon here. Definitely a must for the budget bride. Now, if only they had more for the wedding section…

I have been to the Dollar Tree’s in Quincy, Brighton and the new one in Roslindale and I must say, THIS Dollar Tree is stocked very well compared to the others. I think this store has most of whats on the website also (not quite sure). No freezer in this one but everything in the store makes up for that. This will now be my 2^nd favorite Dollar Tree to go to!

In 2001 I bought a 6 ft tall standee of the Black Power Ranger for less than $ 6 dollars and for that this place gets 5 stars.

If anything, Dollar Tree is worth a visit just to see the… um… knoweledgable… and errrr… unique staff.
I do love a bargain, and DT has some pretty odd, cheap, and uselessly fantabulous treasures, but come prepared with a nosepin and pepper spray… chances are you’ll need ‘em.

I know it is a dollar store, so I really should not set my expectations too high — but this place is sort of crazy.
It is a GREAT place to pick up party favors, cheap one-​and-​done items for large holiday cooking events, platters you intend to leave at an event, and misc items of that nature. This is how I discovered the Dollar Tree in Boulder, CO — tail gate item central!
Unfortunately, this location is always a mess, I mean stuff is everywhere! The lines are long and all the staff is up front so good luck getting a question answered. The pure chaos is like that of someone trying to herd cats.
I will go back, because they have the disposable items I need, but each time I go I need to psych myself up for it — like I am going into battle.
Side note: We got some Good & Plenty’s there and they were freshest he had had in a while — a very pleasant surprise. I avoid the food items like the plague at these types of store, but who knew — the freshest candy was to be had?!
Items: 5 stars
Everything else: 2 stars

I go there sometimes to buy greeting cards or mailing supplies. its good for some goods but not for all. for example, the food quality is’nt that good. Anyway, as you MIGHT get the right thing you want from there for ony 1 dollar, so worths trying!

If I need crafting supplies I go here first. They also have decent plastic-​ware and drinking glasses. If you enjoy decorating for different holidays, they always seem to have an abundance of stuff themed around whatever holiday is closest.
Where this store really shines is they have an awesome selection of gift wrap, including all the supplies you need to make your own gift baskets dirt cheap. I use this stuff for charity fundraisers (creative begging), but you could also use the stuff sold here to make your gifts look more expensive than than they are.
A dollar store that actually sells things for a dollar and has pleasant staff, gets four stars.

damn it. you don’t have swiffers. oh well. i could use .
some mustard,
a scented candle,
dishwasher detergent,
a broom,
a bag of pretzels, $ $ HOLLA FOR THA DOLLA!
a foot long twisty straw, _​_​_​/​
handsoap, /​\ /​
a can of mandarin \_​_​_​_​/​
oranges,
and some tampons
for UNDER TEN DOLLARS.
yeah! gimme some of dem DOLLAR deals. i’d like a stimulus package too please. and a swiffer. where can i find a swiffer??? target didn’t have them either…

As a teacher and a cheap-​o in general, i get some stuff from this place on a regular basis. It is small given that it is located in a busy area, and can sometimes get messy but worth a browse if you only want to spend $$$ 1.
I go for packing/​mailing supplies and bubble wrap (the post office is crazy-​priced, dollar tree is comfortably cheap-​o priced)…craft items, teacher items like stickers and small books, gift bags…

STEALS. Yup. You have to look for them, though, since most of the stuff is cheap. Yeah, you get what you pay for. Some of the food is a good deal, but some is not so good. I’m not a fan of the jerky they sell there.
Also, plan on paying cash or VISA. They don’t take mastercard??? Strange huh?
Private lot.

Wow, this Dollar Tree totally came through for us! A few of us went shopping here this weekend to get ready for the annual Pride Parade — YES we will be celebrating queer diversity decked out in tacky wonderfulness thanks to the Dollar Tree!
We spent $ 75 in here on 75 various items including bamboo sticks, swimming pool noodles (to make banners), streamers, bubbles, rainbow leis (x25), grass skirts & bras (for the boys), rainbow hanging decorations & wind spinners, noise makers, pom poms, little tote bags (to hold while passing out candy and condoms), and hula hoops.
I was blown away by all the stuff they had in here. The only idea we had coming in was an orange theme, but browsing was inspirational and we got most of what we needed here (we got the candy from BJ’s and a few things from Home Depot).
Amazing. I can’t really say if they are queer-​friendly, but I’m adding this to my Queer Boston list. Definitely a good place to come if you’re throwing any kind of party.

As mentioned, everything here really does cost a dollar! Not like those other dollar stores that claim to be a dollar store and the only things that are a dollar there costs 79 cents everywhere else.
Stuff I’ve bought for a dollar include:
–pre-​cut aluminum foil (like they use in restaurants)
–yellow rubber gloves
–good sponges for washing dishes
–glowsticks
Yes, one of those things are not like the others.
They have everything you need and things you didn’t know you need.
By far, the best dollar store in the Boston area.
