“This is a huge one. Like the one i I once called home.
(Florida. )
Found everything on my list. Tax is not too bad. No hidden fees when paying cash. Not sure on other form of payment.
Wish they would put a DG by here.”

“I come here very often, great deals on the Family Dollar app for laundry items. Most importantly the staff is very nice and kind and the store is kept clean and organized. I appreciate everybody working there.”
“Evelyn is a treasure with a smile that lights up the store. Not sure why my past review is gone but it wasn't a pleasant experience. It's about her character that overfills to her work ethic and situational awareness.”

“Great store, very clean and has the best deals!! Great selection of items too, easily the best in the area. Also, the cashiers at the front had superb customer service - I believe their names were Jay and Pete. Will definitely come back whenever I'm in the area!!!”
“Visit on 12/03/2025 I had a wonderful experience at Dollar Tree thanks to the outstanding customer service from Danny. He is truly amazing—professional, patient, and always willing to help. Danny goes above and beyond to assist customers and makes sure everyone leaves satisfied. His positive attitude and dedication make a big difference. Dollar Tree is lucky to have such an upstanding employee!”
“We was able to get what we needed but the wait time was crazy. The cashier ( name tag said GET) called 3 times for help and when the other cashier came she had an attitude. Before I left I let her know that she was doing an amazing job despite the lack of help.”
“Kudos to Georgia who provided outstanding customer experience during our visit. She greeted me with a smile, helped me find everything I needed, and made checkout quick and easy. She was patient, friendly, and clearly cares about customers having a good experience. Employees like Georgia make this Dollar Tree a great place to shop!”
“Great selection, the best I've ever seen at a Dollar Tree. Awesome staff! Tom, Jamie and the woman manager (didn't catch her name) were all great. They deserve raises. I spent 30+ minutes in the store and saw several interactions and all were pleasant, including mine. They assisted me with 12 balloons during a busy time and they were kind to everyone. Great location, selection and staff. Highly recommend.”
“As a Dollar Tree it's solid, shelves are stocked and it's kept really neat and clean. The reason I'm giving it five stars is because of the wonderful, wonderful lady at the register! I wish I had asked her name but I just want her to know that I think she made everybody's day a little bit brighter and happier with her positive and kind personality! I'm coming back to this location even though it's out of my way simply because of how nice everyone is there ? Btw it's Thursday afternoon/2:30pm so the store knows about which employee I'm referring:)”
“There's a lot of stuff to buy at good price. Halloween decorations, Christmas decorations. Gift bags, birthday cards, plates, glasses, mugs. Trash bags, ziploc bags, home cleaners, air fresheners. Dog and cat food, and more.”
“Shoutout to Lynn for great customer service. She thoughtfully separated my food from my cleaning products and even double-bagged the household items without me having to ask. She was polite, efficient and clearly attentive. It’s the simple things that make a difference and this really made my day.”

“One of my favorite places to go for some old-fashioned candy bars, assorted candies or some late-night snacks. The staff is always really nice to talk to. I think they have done a much better job clearing the isles. Everything seems to be in the right place now. The store itself seems to be cleaner nowadays.”
“Dollar Tree is a great place to find affordable everyday items and fun seasonal products. I love that everything is budget-friendly, which makes it easy to pick up party supplies, snacks, cleaning products, and small household essentials without spending much.
The store usually has a wide variety of items, and I often find surprisingly useful things for crafts and kids’ activities. It’s especially helpful for last-minute needs or when you’re planning events on a budget.
That said, the store can sometimes feel a bit crowded or understocked depending on the day, but the staff is generally friendly and helpful.
Overall, Dollar Tree is a convenient and economical option for quick shopping trips and budget finds.”
“On Friday there was a young man with shaggy hair and I believe glasses too? working there. I’ve never seen a dollar store employee show hospitality like that before. There was a lady who was picking stuff out and had her hands full and he rushed over to bring her a basket if wanted it, and the. He came over and asked if I wanted him to bag my groceries even tho it was self checkout. I also accidentally clicked the wrong button and he fixed it really quick. It was just so sweet and memorable because you don’t expect someone to care so much at a dollar tree haha.”
“I am giving 5 stars to the manager, tall cashier dude that's always present, and the older woman that typically closes because these workers bust their humps!
To the contrary I want to say to the owner, general manager,etc
I was in this evening around 6:48 pm. The cashier ( no name tag) wearing white jogging pants and a black top should be taught to not be holding a customer's money and texting... I wanted to scream from how unprofessional it was just standing there staring at her for what seemed like FOREVER to please put her phone down and finish my transaction. As soon as I walk up she's just texting completely ignoring me and my entire interaction was awkward. I look forward in seeing the manager whenever I walk in as she is incredibly helpful and pleasant and I could've right there and then called for her however she was busy putting the price tags on throughout the entire store trusting this young lady and this cashier should be written up. Next time if it happens again I will be certain to say something. If it were my job, I'd be out of a job, period. I did not appreciate spending $43.00 to give her $45.00 and wait forever to get my change that probably was about 3 minutes total just staring at her and she gave no care because obviously it's welcomed. I have seen the manager at this location train and she is stern, hard pressed while being gentle and extremely patient so I know it is not happening in her presence. We all have things going on at home, etc but that's what a break is for!!
As a professional, please do not respond with, " I'm sorry to hear this. Please email me or please understand.... ( Whatever reason is given it is not good enough)"
In my customer service career as a young cashier I had to learn the hard way by receiving a write up, having my phone confiscated by management until the end of my shift or being sent home without pay.
I do understand that this generation is pretty much... RELAXED to a certain degree but it is common sense, " the customer service is the first contact, is responsible for creating that warm and inviting impression to keep customers coming back vs to their competitors, are responsible for adhering to their employment hand book guidelines of what is acceptable and isn't and the customers wanting to come back purchasing inventory is what creates profit and raises"
Please, get it together. Give your Manager and the old lady a raise as they have been the consistent employees in that store since I moved to Wood Dale years ago. Stop hiring anyone and if you do ensure they have common knowledge of what is expected or train them properly so that these young folks understand.”
“This store is NCO, neat, clean and organized. Parking is across the street is a plus for me. Also, not in Chicago… they do not charge you for plastic bags. ?”
“For a family dollar this location had tons of variety. Women's and kids clothes, mens clothes, toys, food, gift supplies, etc. They have way more items for sale then other locations. Friendly staff.”
“Recently restocked, better selection than normal for a large variety of items. Pretty clean store but the lines can be a little long. Still one of my favorite locations!”
“They are always so nice and helpful... I would get a job there but I know I would spend my check there.. I'm glad they're so close I could walk there if I had energy”
“Not all Dollar Trees are created equally. The one on Harlem surpassed my regular neighborhood store by miles. This store had SO much more stock. It was clean and organized. There was an associate in one of the aisles that was able to answer a couple of questions for me. It is obviously a popular store as there was only one cart available when we got there. Great Halloween decor. And I scored a great pair of black leggings there as well as all of the things on my list.”
“Helllo would like to give a nice compliment for the new manger LaTanya for the service I had received. She was helpful with my items and got everything I wanted and more thank you and for your store. There should be more people out like her”
“Dollar Tree is great store however items sold now cost more than $1. Most stores are well maintained, while some are not. You can find lots of little gems there if you look closely .”
“Went to Dollar Tree Paletine il, Because Dollar in Lake Zurich, IL. Has gone down hill. LZ location had no air conditioning, plus they got rid of the Frozen and refrigerated units that held good stuffs. They got rid of my Favorite Pomegranate Lemonade that was held in large freezer/fridge. Paletine is my new go to store.”
“No se como hicieron pero me robaron mi saldo de mi tarjeta de EBT teniendo yo conmigo la tarjeta y lo gastaron todo en su tienda, no sé si están coludidos o no pero no les recomiendo usar su tarjeta ahí.”
“Loved the store. Unlike any other dollar store, you can find good quality products. I was surprised how many products they have and not to mention they are affordable. Definitely love the store and going there soon. Best dollar store I have been to”
“I stopped in for soda, waters, and ice. The store was very organized and clean. The manager and staff are very, very helpful and polite. A nice little store atmosphere.”
“Dollar Tree is a great place to grab everyday items for just $1.25. You can find snacks, cleaning supplies, school stuff, and even some hidden gems if you look around. It’s not fancy, but it’s super affordable. Some locations are better stocked and cleaner than others, but overall, it’s a good spot to save money.”
“I Love me some dollar tree. In my eye sight dollar tree is the best thing going. I love the icee cup, salmon, bleach. And don't talk about the Awesome. That product took spots out of the tile on the floor. I Love U dollar tree, I pray that you stay n my life forever. The good thing is all the staff are nice, no matter which store I go to.”
“I shopped at Dollar Tree yesterday and I must admit, it's been a very long time since I have encountered a conversational cashier. Most of the time, it's awkward silence and blank stares. Jacob at this location, was unlock most young people I have encountered. He was friendly and I feel like he enjoys his job! Great young man.”
“I recently visited a Dollar Tree location, and I was genuinely impressed by how clean and well-organized the store was from the moment I walked in. Many people expect discount stores to be a bit cluttered or chaotic, but this Dollar Tree completely defied that stereotype. The floors were spotless, the aisles were tidy, and every shelf looked thoughtfully arranged, making it incredibly easy to find exactly what I needed without feeling overwhelmed.
What stood out most was how neatly the products were grouped by category. Seasonal items were displayed in an attractive, easy-to-browse layout, while everyday essentials like cleaning supplies, snacks, and personal care items were clearly labeled and fully stocked. It made the shopping experience smooth and enjoyable, almost more like a boutique discount store than a typical dollar shop.
The checkout area was also clean and efficiently managed. Even when a small line formed, the staff moved things along quickly, all while keeping their stations organized and free of clutter. That level of attention to detail really added to the overall positive atmosphere of the store.
Overall, this Dollar Tree exceeded my expectations. The cleanliness, organization, and thoughtful layout made shopping simple, fast, and surprisingly pleasant. I’ll definitely be returning.”
