Discount Stores near Oak Brook, IL

“Good store for buying decent quality stuff. Most of the goods here are for kids or teenagers and a few items for adults.There are a few things which are more than $5 which is like the dollar stores which advertise everything below $1 but have several products more than that.There is a nice variety of stuff from toys, posters, no groceries.”

“Staff is very friendly and the atmosphere is very welcoming! They always have just about everything I need. FYI they have a $1 Aisle that's loaded with all kind of goodies from household goods, snacks, etc. Yep everything in that Aisle is $1 buck. Don't take my word check it out for yourself, you'll be glad you did✌?Special Shout Out To The Dollar General Team-Asst. Store Manager Andrea/Dennis/Paris Always Nice & Extremely Helpful Making It An Awesome Shopping Experience!”

“I love this store..needed presents for a friend's Birthday and a pillow for me..the only problem was some of the tshirts I wanted that were advertised weren't there..went back a few days later and shirts were changed..but I found some cute ones for my friends birthday and a cute pillow for me..”

“It is a store with a variety of products at affordable prices (toys, clothing, shoes, exercise items, art supplies, food, snacks, makeup, etc.), whether to buy or just to hang out (you will hardly not buy something ). It is a place where you are very likely to find a gift without spending a lot.”

“This place is the most organized I've ever seen it. Definitely a big improvement. They carry a wide variety of sugar free candy. This will be my go to from now on”

“Store was clean, employees were nice, helpful. Got a hello from an employee when I walked in. Also got help checking out.I was in and out cause if I stayed longer then I needed I'd spend more money then I should!! Lol ...”

“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!!!”

“I've always liked coming into this store. It's much more organized and clean than others that I've frequented. Even though I wish everything stayed $1.00, I'm happy to see newer products that are definitely worth the cost. I especially like the qualifier press on nails!”

“I was looking for a mirror and found a few here, from small size to the one I got, 48 x 76 inches. I asked if someone could help me with it, and soon, two people did help me get it with their cart.
The person at the register was friendly and fast, I paid and also got a bit of help getting the mirror on my vehicle.
They had many registers open when the line got longer.
The store was clean, there is plenty of free parking right in front.
Overall I like the store and I'll come back.”

“This tree is conveniently located and definitely one of the largest dollar trees I've been to. It's definitely a go-to when I need little things, some daily necessities or some food for lunch/dinner.”

“5/24 - Bought some patio furniture items here. I had a problem with one of the pieces and they immediately took care of it. Great customer service and great attitudes.”

“I'm happy that the Five Below in Melrose Park is receiving an update recently, considering that surrounding Five Below locations have already been updated. This location, which is constantly busy with customers, never considered getting an update until now, and they are using the old Carter's building to extend the Five Below location just as an FYI.”

“A good place to go with your children, there are candy stores and they sell very good gold. The frowner who is in front of the door is very friendly and they arrange gold very well.”

“Since I happened to be in the Forest Park area, I visited this Dollar Tree solely to purchase Jimmy Dean's Cheddar Cheese Omelets which I have grown to love for breakfast in the morning. Along with the omelets, I figured why not purchase other things like water, shelf stable milk, toilet paper, body spray, body soap, white bread, peanut butter, and snacks while visiting. The atmosphere at this location feels so calm in comparison to other locations I visited. The one thing that makes me feel uneasy are the panhandlers that are typically out during the late evening hours. And I must say that with there being a lack of lighting available outside contributes to that uneasy feeling as well. Dollar Tree is becoming more like Dollar General with what products are being shelved. During this visit, I could not help but admire a $5 pair of Super Soft Leggings which are the perfect lounge around wear. I swear, I will have to stay clear of that aisle in the future because I nearly left with a camouflage pair of leggings. I have been buying large bottles of water from Dollar Tree for some time now. Dollar Tree has my preferred brands in stock like Alkaline, Aquafina, Dasani, Eternal, Life WTR, and now Body Armor Sport Water which keep me purchasing consistently. Their sizes alone are perfect for the pace I choose to drink water, so Dollar Tree is my go-to choice for purchasing. Shelf stable milk continues to be an item that keeps me visiting Dollar Tree locations for. Its lifespan, price, and carton size works for me in comparison to buying out of supermarket stores. I make it my sole priority to purchase toilet paper every time I visit Dollar Tree, since it is one of my most used essentials next to body soap. Even though I would have preferred tissue by Scott Comfort Plus, I had to settle for Strong and Soft since Scott Comfort Plus was not available. "Hint, hint ", Scott Comfort Plus is the better tissue brand in my opinion. This location does have a parking lot of its own, a small lot which can feel congested at times when there are a number of visitors. If you are like me and want to avoid the uneasy feeling of a congested parking lot, there is street parking in the immediate area. Whether it be for the purchase of breakfast foods, bottled water, shelf stable milk, toilet paper, or even hygiene products, Dollar Tree continues to be my go-to for those items. Happy shopping, and blessings to all that have stumbled upon and read this review. ~Keep it simple. ~ Thomas G”

“I had an excellent experience... I purchased furniture online which didn't fit into my daughter's apartment... I had to go through the store for a refund and Darius I believe his name the store manager was very helpful and patient with me... He is awesome... His manager of the furniture department Mariah I believe is her name helped me as well. The store was fully stocked and clean. Whenever I'm ever in that area, I'll surly shop there.... And the employees were very helpful...”

“Amazing store, is been a while since the last time I visited and I was not disappointed. Great selection on all sorts of items. Personel was amazing and attentive.”

“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:)”

“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.”

“Very clean store very friendly people the bakery will make you any kind of donuts you asked them to do. The store even has pistachio cakes available most of the time”

“Great customer service, friendly people. I like the fact they are fully stocked with everything you need. Great deals easy to load the app on your phone and start saving big.”

“Always a great place to find items needed for everyday purposes, I go here to get the essentials..Beats buying the same items for higher prices somewhere else..Been a true shopper here for along time, and always find those little things to brighten someone's day, alongside buying for the house, it's also great for cards, and presents, and those special "just because gifts!! Thanks $Tree!!”

“I went to the dollar store this time at the Lombard location. I think this store is much bigger compared to the other dollar tree stores. Well I went and I found some bowls to match with the white & blue flower design plates, coffee mugs & placemats that I bought yesterday evening. At another dollar tree I went yesterday. There was this nice lady associate that helped me & took care of me earlier in the afternoon today. Her name was Genie. Thank you to her for being so kind & helpful. It was good that this nice lady associate helped me because I’m handicap now. I’m glad I bought some newspaper & thanks for helping wrap my beautiful bowls that I bought. I also bought some bouquet of balloons for Mother’s Day for my Mom & also a bouquet of balloons for my daughter too. They really have nice stuff to buy at this store. Good quality & good prices. God bless. I give Genie & this dollar tree store 5 stars.”

“Walked in, and I was amazed of how clean the store is and that they have everything that you need for your household. The person on the cash register was amazing and nice, and he helped me find everything I was looking for will recommend this place to all my friends and family. Happy shopping.”

“The young man this morning was so very patient and respectful. What a great example of customer service.Didn't catch his name, but he is great at his job!!”

“Great clothing options. One just needs to look. This particular store has UNIQLO and Levi's options. I usually walk out with two items. Definitely recommend giving it a try.”

“Omg.. I’ll never forget this kind lady associate manager who helped take care of me today. I usually buy my dishes, bowls and coffee mugs at IKEA. But I was just browsing around in the store. And found and I bought some beautiful floral design dishes with matching coffee mugs and matching placemats. This is my treat for my Mother’s Day. So when I have my friends or family over at my place. They will be surprised at the beautiful table setting with beautiful dishes, coffee mugs and matching placemats.
Thank you to dear nice lady night manager Hope. I love this store because of its beautiful kinds of things you can buy. And I am handicap I walk with a cane now since my stroke because I have lupus vasculitis. I had angioplasty surgery I have right vertebral stent & I have numbness on my right side body now.
It’s hard for me to go shopping. But it’s people like dear kind Hope that make a difference in life. Thank you so much Hope for helping me today. That was so nice of you.
God bless. Hope you have more of God’s blessings to come (:
Check it out at the dollar tree store. I haven’t gone there for a long time. It’s really a great place to shop. I give Hope 5 stars for great customer service.”

“Very big for a Dollar Tree. It used to be a Walgreens. Nice than most locations. Only complaint is that they only have one cash register open at all times which is typical for all Dollar Trees.”

“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.”

“stopped in this evening to get kitty litter and the shelves were bare except the top shelf. I went to the register and asked for help and the lady at the register said yes & came with me, she got a ladder then gave me what was left - 2 boxes and one bag of kitty liter. Thank You for Awesome service! You Are Awesome!”
