“The BEST Dollar Tree. They have EVERYTHING. It's very clean and organized. Nice ppl who work there. From nice dishes to facial toner and serums there's a wide selection of quality items. I'm going baco for fake nails 1.25 and all shapes & eyelashes 1.25 very thick long and curled. They do have some items for 5.oo”
“Delightful surprise. Went in for crafting supplies and found so much more including some better brand closeouts. So many hard to find discontinued spray paints, fair prices! And Almas is the sweetest. Great customer service. Plenty of parking.”
“Linda was so awesome. I needed 16 balloons and she was so patient and kind helping me get what I needed. She called for backup and walked over to help me with a smile. She made me laugh too. Great experience and so many cool things”
“Store always has lotsa good loot! ? Excellent deals. I only use Eucerin Advanced Repair lotion where it's usually $10 for 8oz on Amazon - I find it here for 4.95 when they have it, last time they didn't have but found Gold Bond Healing 5.5 oz for 3.95 and it's very good too. Bought all sorts of other toiletries Mennen deodorant Aqua Shave razors shaving creams ALL very low priced and definitely lower than Walmart Target, wherever. ✌️ ?”
“Loved this store. Large variety. Many cute things. Found gift boxes for Mother's Day gifts. Picked up a couple of things for Father's Day to go with his big gift.”
“Love saving money shopping here. Unfortunately you have to pay attention to what you're buying. Some things are lower in quality than you'd expect. They are always getting new and different products, which sucks if you find something you like because it might be sold out forever the next time you visit.”
“Some of the best employees in the area. I'm a frequent customer of theirs and they're very much familiar with me at this point. They have right about anything you need and the employees are just the greatest human beings. Keep up the great work!”
“Cleanest Dollar Tree I've ever been to. I went on a Saturday evening before they closed, actually we were their last customer. We were pleasantly surprised at how clean and fully stocked they were considering it being the end of their business day. The manager and all other employees working were very professional, helpful and polite. Thank you for providing wonderful service, we'll be back.”
“Staff is always so friendly here and things are always stocked. They have a good variety of food and miscellaneous things like nail supplies and household items.”
“I’ve never really had a bad experience here. I usually visit at night, and the staff is quiet but always approachable whenever I have a question. The store is typically well-organized and clean, which I appreciate. Not to mention they have a wide selection of various snacks, household items, and etc!! I definitely enjoy stopping by for snacks!”
“I love this place. You can tell that the people that started this company and the ones who run it today have always had the customers best interest at heart. I commend the Dollar Tree on its commitment to providing quality at an unmatched price and I recommend supporting this company. There are no other dollar stores around after the pandemic and inflation. They only went up a humble 25 cents. At the other stores I'll be damned if there is anything for a buck anymore. Update some prices on certain items have gone up.”
“I knew we could find some cheap plastic baskets to put our toiletries in while traveling and found them here. Also looked for some name brand baby shampoo for $1.25 instead of $7+ at the pharmacy. I was also looking for some spray eye glass cleaner expecting to find a small travel size for $1.25. Nope a much larger size for your home counter. Too big to travel. Always great Halloween and Christmas decorations and small projects for the grandkids to do.”
“I appreciated the amount of products/ supplies nearly tucked in the store (including bottled water), the low prices, AND most importantly the kind and helpful staff; especially the manager/owner!makes a special”
“I have been going to dollar tree for years. I always can find the majority of things a stopped fo unlike other 99 cent stores.I always have had friendly service.”
“Always fully stocked. Good customer service (they great you as. you walk in and as you leave).
A lot of parking.
Only downside, it can be scary at night if there's beggers/homeless people by the entrance.”
“This dollar tree location is my favorite one. It is on the larger side, the aisles are wider, and clear. The store is well stocked, and in good repair. Other locations have "housekeeping" issues, but at this dollar tree location, as it is newer, Has clean floors, all the lights are on, and it does not feel dingy or cramped.They have any amazing selection of craft supplies, books, a good grocery/pantry section, and of course, a good variety of candy/sweets.This is one of my favorite places to look for stocking stuffers.”
“I have been to a few Dollar Tree stores over the years, this location was the most organized and clean that I have seen. The staff was friendly and professional. Checkout was very quick. I found some great toys for my fur babies and some other great stuff.”
“This place is usually clean, well organized, well stocked, and the people that work there are friendly+helpful. Sometimes there's only 1 person to ring up a lot of customers, but that's everywhere I go these days.”
“I’ve been a regular at this location & a few more for at least 8 years. This is my go to location, as I live near by, but the store is big. They have a bigger store & more selection than others. The employees here have always been great! I used to crack jokes with a few of the girls since we’d always see each other, & I’m not a creep or anything. I’m just a single mom who worked years in retail too. Some of them have rbf, but hey, I do too, so I get it. I can’t say one negative thing about the employees or the store. Yeah sometimes it’s super busy, but they will open another register, where at other locations, they won’t. They always keep the shelves stocked, unless there’s a transportation or shortage issue beyond their control. I alway get what I’m looking for & more. Thanks to all the employees here for making this location the best one. Yall r awesome.”
“For those gift ideas made with love, or party decorations for graduation or whatever the occasion may be. The Dollar Tree is the place for you. They have a bit of everything at low prices.”
“This is as good a place to go when you have a number of things that you need to find and purchase & limited $$$ with which to buy them : THIS is a friendly store with helpful clerks and other customers & many many shelves filled just about everything you can imagine needing or wanting to give your ideas and your projects that extra little jenesaisPAS that makes it all work!”
“I just left to pick up some cleaning supplies and Aaron at the register was so nice, happy and positive! It was such a great interaction with a cash register employee. You just don't get that these days- thanks Aaron!
**give this guy a raise and promotion! **”
“The store was neater than I'd seen it in a long time; that made me completely relaxed. That said, there were many shelves half empty, but there were a bunch of product boxes, right in front of the cash register, still waiting to be unboxed and shelved. The bright spot was the cashier, Lea. She carefully wrapped each of the glass jars, which are gorgeous, and the ceramic bowl. She packed the bag perfectly so it wasn't heavy. And, to top it off, she took the person who walked up behind me after she was about to take a break. Great customer service!”
“Right now there is not much assortment of products, and their prices start from $1.25 and up, I hope they return to having the assortment of products they used to have”
“i look forward to seeing the suprise goodies at dollar tree, but sadly through research i was made aware how the street people are almost stealing them out of business, which i was through my research caused the neighborhood walmart to pack up leave and close down, which i looked forward to doing my weekly shoping, which walmart called it the store was under" performing" being stolen out of business, i suspect is because in california you can steal up to $900+ dolars before it becomes a felony, on top of that the street people aint got nothing to loose, jail to them is 3 hots and a cot, on top of that, by the time the cops arive the 5 finger discounter is long gone, i sugested to put up signs we reward people who turn in shop lifters, also they could put on the sign please help us stay in your comunity turn in a shop lifter, there is no way do i have the smarts, to figure out the thousands of steps it takes to open 1 store now x that by 5000+ stores, i have heard street talk "i hate rich people, who are probably the low lifes that steal stores out of business, then i ask them do you know any poor people who have opened any stores lately, which causes them to go into a major grand maul sezure, trying to come up with a answer, then to further drive the point home, i say dont you think these rich people you say you hate, could easly close down every 1 of their stores and haply go to a tropical lisland and easly retire for the rest of their lives, not having to put up with low life shop lifters, facts even if money grew on trees the smart ones would get it first, fact i aint that smart, and i aint rich, so fact to the extent a person is rich is a measurement of their smarts, and i make it a point to thank them for being open, oh yeah if i witness a low life abusing a casheer, i will apologize for them being walked allover like a dirty rug, i try to conduct my life on the grudge factor, that means i go out of my way to treat people kindly and respectfull, so far it has worked out in my life real good”

“Benjamin the cashier did an excellent job .He was pite and friendly and quick .He had turned off his light as we were his last customers .The rudest person interupted our transaction and demanded she be waited on .He was still super professional..”
“The people I met recently were most friendly and sweet. But I do have to complain about a cashier doing a while ago that was obnoxious and violated basic queue logic.
Buyer 1 who was third in line in Line A, had three items. Line B then opened. So that buyer went to be the first at Line B. But the cashier STOPPED that buyer and forced them to wait, just to bring the buyer second in Line A over. For the record, Buyer A had only like a handful of items, Line A was NOT exceptionally slow. Buyer B had a full cart of items! Even Buyer B was confused.
The cashier shouldn’t have to do such things, it’s first come first serve for cashier lines for efficiency. The cashier should ONLY EVER pull from the front of another line if it is exceptionally slow. Still, why pull someone with a full cart from the front of even an exceptionally slow/long line to get first dibs in a newly open line, when someone with just one item has already made it there? Not everyone buyer will be aware enough to let the person with one item ahead. All of this serves as “accommodation” that only wastes more time and effort. Another scenario even: if someone makes it to line 1 with a lot of items, is in a hurry but isn’t gonna mention anything for politeness sake, only for the cashier to pull Person B who has an equal amount of items from the front of another average line. It’s just, by this same logic, should the buyer who stayed inside the store the longest be given dibs as the first one to pay, out of everyone currently present in the store?
This was a quite a mundane rant I went on but it really was annoying. Another good thing, it seems the possibly bigoted older male employee is gone, the one who many have reported acted weird to them from treating them rudely, to searching bags and following them. Relief.”
