The great thing about peppermint Is that it will keep bugs away. So a lot of people that I have cleaned for said that they had started noticing like ants. Or a few of the spiders or whatever not a lot. So I will whip out peppermint oil peppermint spray. And it keeps them away
I have the spray in the cleaner. And I love it. I think it works really good. I have not tried the wipes seen it. So I will have to go back and see about those.
Hey pookie. My dts are also selling the bars individually. I went out of town and found the boxes. I really really wish the dt would put limits on the hot items. For example the sesame Street set. Resellers are coming thru and clearing the shelves and I think everyone should have a chance to get the hot items. I went to one of my dts and the manager told me she sold out of everything in 30 mins to 4 ppl. That is bullshit. Sorry if I offended anyone, that's just my opinion. Jen.
Some DT’s in MA do that. The one I worked at always did that and it pissed me off. They do it with drinks, socks, anything in big packs, which is not right and I HATE when they do it.
Also, do the bars have a barcode on the wrapper? How are they scanning them individually?😤 I haven’t found any of his snacks yet but, I’m on the lookout!
Hi, Lisa👋🏽 Dollar Tree will have a shortage of merchandise. In the next coming days. A DT Manager received an email saying that the trucks are being rerouted to Oklahoma. Due to the tornado touchdown at the warehouse. Hopefully, it won’t be too bad here in Michigan. Keep your fingers crossed.🤞🏽Ps. Dollar Tree New 2024 calendars is $1.50, not $1.25. It’s on their website😭
I don’t know if it was a direct result, but I complained to customer support about how incredibly messy and under stocked two of my local Dollar Trees were. I went in a week later and both of them had staff from corporate that were cleaning and stocking.
A lot of times the individual bar is labeled that is not to be sold individually so that is a clue they should not be opening the packages. I haven't found any Mr. Beast stuff.
We pay up to 2.00 in Canada and your dollar is way better than ours. Plus we sometimes don’t get the same things and the Canadian dollar tree staff flip out if I ask about something I saw online from the US.
Hi Lisa, Thanks for sharing, I am in upstate NY and the Dollar Trees have been to taking the boxes of Feastables and breaking them up and are selling them $1.25 a bar. 😠 I think they should not be allowed to do that. (just my option) I feel like we are getting ripped off! If they do that, they should be making them a lower price not $1,25.
Nice haul!!!! Where did you find the cookbooks? Just wanted to say that I look forward to your hauls every week and you are the reason I still shop at Dollar Tree.....thanks
My favorite store was selling them as individual bars!!! It made me soo mad!! They must have had at least 50-60 of each flavor. I wasn’t happy when they went from $1 to $1.25 because that was a 25% mark up which is huge. Now they want to make stuff $1.50 which is another 20% increase. I know businesses need to make money but we all know their pockets aren’t hurting.
:( right! I think it’s a big bummer everything is going up and this just adds more sadness to the mix :( but I do love the Dt and love finding the deals!
Dollar Tree is definitely changing in Florida, where I live. One of my favorite Dollar Tree, which has a dollar tree plus and items selling for $4.25, $5.00, $6.00, etc. Outside of the plus section. They also put scanners in the store so you can check the prices. When I go to this Dollar Tree, I don't even feel like im in a Dollar Tree. I feel like im in a Family Dollar or Dollar General. I do not like this. I only shop $1.25 items. Love all the good finds. I will definitely be on the hunt for the Mr. Beast bars.
When they bought family dollar things started to go bad. They couldnt save F D so they are evolving DT into more if a FD. Also, when they hired the former Dollar General big wig things also started going downhill. I'm looking for dollar deals in other stores. Done with DT.
Peace Tracy, rather than roll your eyes, is there a legit reason you can't correct/address the situation so the staff/stockers etc realize what they're doing is WRONG?
They should make the little solar lanterns in the shape of fruits. I have what I call a "LIGHT GARDEN" where I buy just one of the solar lights the DT gets and I just have them all grouped together like a flower bed and I have them all different heights and colors and shapes. Brings me joy and I have my favorites.
Tfs Lisa!❤ OK, you asked & here's my take: I am a die hard $🌳 diva. No I do not like the changes they are making. Yes there are still deals to be had, HOWEVER, dt can do better! I went to 2 of my local stores & with this new pricing I found the same item for two different prices. Also, I've noticed some stores do take apart the multipacks & sell them individually. Very frustrating & is gradually turning me off from shopping more regularly. 😢 love you & your content ❤️
Those bars I haven't seen at any of my DT's, but I have seen DT open items & sell things for $1.25 each. I have also seen ppl from other states buy something for $1.25 & when I find it, they have it for a higher price. Also, I have seen where something is $1.25 & an other DT that's not to far from it sells it for higher. All those big packs of tie dye sets you ppl found for $1.25, well I only found them at one of my DT's, but they were selling them for $5. So, I didn't purchase them. I believe the manager made that decision. Not fair. Also, I don't understand why some of my DT's have the bread items for $1.25 & others for $3. I wouldn't waste my money on that coffee cleaner, when you can use vinegar to clean it. You get more vinegar for your money. Sometimes I'll see vinegar at Dollar General for $1. That coffee is delicious. My bf & I give it 2 thumbs up.
Happy you found the whole box , my stores are selling them separate , the employees always keep the good stuff back for their self or their families , which sucks .
I could write a very long comment about how I feel about Dollar tree raising their prices, but I will just keep it short and sweet. They are going to raise their prices to the point where they put themselves out of business the writing is already on the wall. They’re already in trouble financially, and they have closed some stores. That’s what happens when you get greedy.
Yep!!! Now if we wanted that box it would be over 6 dollar for the box!!! This is not a high end grocery store! Its hard seeing everything going up and keep going up and now this just kinda makes everything grr 😠
Our DT does that even to bottled water of a 6pack. I also hate when all the employees get all the good stuff and if you ask they will go in the office and bring out what is left over. They did that with the Sesame stuff😡 I haven,t seen any cute lanterns 🏮yet in any of our 3 DT's. Love your peanut shirt, Wet-n -Wild also has a Peanut collection like the Sesame Street. Hope that will come out in DT's too. Nice haul. Love from FL.🥰
I see a lot of videos and tik toks how dollar trees holds stuff for people of their choice in the back for example the dupe santitizer of the one at Ulta this girl said she seen one lady with a few of them and when she ask about them they said someone done put in for the whole box of them how can they do that. I think that’s why our dollar tree never gets anything good only what they carry on a daily. It gets annoying
I look at it like Im either gonna deal with dollar tree and their small price increases or get stuck paying the ridiculous price at walmart or Target . I will never find the products I buy at DT anywhere for less than $4-5$. I despise Walmart , and Target is for wealthy people prices are ridiculous 😮 I will take DT and Dollar General anyday
Thanks for another great haul Pookie! I would be ticked off to see them selling the bars separately. Greedy greedy greedy! I still love the hunt for a good bargain but those little things make it a bummer. I hope you are having a good week. 💕
I don’t like the recent addition of prices printed on product wrapping, I feel it’s tacky. Also the shrinkage of quantity combined with the increase in price annoys me as it seems deceptive, examples the thank you cards now have four instead of eight so you’re paying 25% more for half as much. An increase of 150 %. Another example, coffee filters now have only 100 when they used to contain 150. There are still bargains but one has to be alert. I still enjoy the thrill of the hunt but I don’t like the direction this is taking.
Them selling the bars individually would infuriate me. I'd be tempted to open up the bag of cookies and dump them on the shelf and tell them to sell each cookie individually. 🤣 They did that with the 4 packs of Evian canned sparkling water. Get on the ball, DT!!
It’s sad :( everything is going up and now seeing that! It’s like now over 6 dollars if you want a box :( just not worth I don’t think! It’s not a high end grocery store
Hi Lisa I had that happen with the 4 pk of flavored seltzer there are only 2 flavors and the 4pk is $1.25 plus deposit. I have twice in two different DT had people try to charge me $1.25 each can. They had to get managers involved to verify it is def $1.25 per 4 pk. 🥰
Yummy!!!!! 😋 you think they would have a list or a note from someone saying this sells like this? I remember when I was a manager at a store I had a list of instructions
Unfortunately that’s what’s going on at my closest DT. I went yesterday and there were two dented boxes of the Resses Mini cereal sitting on the shelf. I took one and was going about my own business when and employee literally stopped me and asked me where I got the box. She openly admitted she had boxes on her cart because “it’s all my son will eat”. She basically admitted she didn’t put the whole case on the floor and was about to accuse me of taking product off her cart. It makes me not want to go back. Honestly if it wasn’t for the bakery seconds they get weekly, I don’t think I’d shop there anymore. They never have enough cashiers and this store is obviously not stocking everything they get
I thought selling single serving out of a box was illegal. Also, Dollar Tree may not be training their employees properly about laws/rulrs and that’s on corporate
Hi Lisa! I work as a Stocker at my Dollar Tree and I think what's happening at some stores is the person who stocks the items doesn't look at the package count on the case. It tells you if things are sold individually or like a whole box or a six pack for example.
Hello thank you so much for your comment I really appreciate it!! Ok I thought they had a list! Or something like that! I wonder why the manager is not catching that mistake! Thanks so much for helping ❤️
If they're anything like the manager at my store, they are probably overloaded with a ton to do and they may not have noticed. We haven't gotten those bars yet, but if we do, I will check the label and see what the actual count should be.
HI Lisa, haven't commented in a while now. Love your peanuts shirt. Would love to know where it came from. I have minimized my shopping due to the higher prices at DT but many things are still a bargain. I over shopped too many DIY items and my house is full of that stuff still (since the pandemic). Hence I only try to buy what I need or will use realistically. I was upset over the .25 increase but now I see so many other things that have really skyrocketed that .25 seems very minimal now. I would love it if you could call the DT home office and inquire re the DT policy of unpackaging and selling individual items from larger packaging. I can't say I have noticed it my stores (Bay Area, CA ) but I would call and complain if I did. Well, thanks for all you do! Enjoy your summer & the beach! 🥰
Selling separately at my store. Like get real, DT. Corporate needs to advise the stores on how to separate or not separate items. Get your crap together. They don't seem to have issues raising the prices so you know they could send a memo if they freaking wanted.
I have heard that some of the things that are being hauled, the employees keep for themself which is fine, but they also sell on sites like ebay , and that's why we never see it in our store. I will say personally I have asked a couple times at two different stores for something I saw hauled and they look down and just say no we don't have it. I saw a video of a woman that wanted 4 hand santizers that everyone is hauling, she wanted them for her kids teachers she was fixing a teacher appreciation basket for them, and wanted to include that. she went to the DT and could not find them, as she was leaving she saw a woman with her husband leaving and she had several, so she asked where did you find that, and she said you have to ask the manager for it. so she went back in ask the manager and she brought out a whole box full of them, and she running her hand thru it like she was counting them, and then she said I can only give you 2. she said I needed 4 for my kids teachers, and she said I am sorry I can only give you 2. something is wrong here. and yes I have seen them break up boxes and sell things that should be sold in the box they came in.. sorry this is long. just wanted to vent since you wanted to know what we thought. thank you Lisa for your hauls and telling us on friday what not to buy. you help us all out..
I really appreciate you comment I know we’re all sad and mad and kinda bummed with the Dt! WOW i wonder if we have to ask because people are taken them without paying or just to keep people from buying it up! Makes me sad! Dollar tree has changed a lot in the last few years! I love the Dt but makes me kinda sad when that stuff happens
@@PookiesView Makes me sad too. I will still shop there but I don't like some things that are happening. I don't like seeing the $1.25 printed on stuff.. that makes it look cheap. so yes I am sad too
I’m not happy about the printed price on products, it’s a bit tacky especially if you gift items. I’m always up front about the source so it isn’t that. Also I’m not happy about getting less on top of the price increase. Examples, thank you cards were in packs of 8 and now you only get 4. Coffee filters went from 150 to 100 count. I understand $🌲may have to pay more but we’re talking about high percentage increases. The trend isn’t good.
Very furious w/ my main DT. It has been a hot mess since January. New management too. The other DT says they trying but going on five months? Boxes everywhere. Carts everywhere. Mother Day stuff almost nil. Frustrating beyond belief.
:( we had a store get fined in Oregon for that! It was kinda bad! but I feel so bad for the employees I heard there hours are getting cut even more :( I don’t like the bad change at all! I love the Dt but sometimes it’s making me sad 😔
Aggravates me to no end when some stores separate multi-packaged food and drinks. I wonder if they think they are pulling the wool over our eyes or if they just don’t know any better? I haven’t found the MrBeast bars yet, but the chocolate chip cookies are pretty good. They are soft. I liked them. Thanks for showing us some new goodies.
Right I don’t understand why at one but not the other? Don’t all DTs have a rule on it or they can do whatever? I should ask next time but I don’t want to come across rude but I’m just curious 🧐 ohh yummy
Sad that the employees are opening boxes and selling individually. If I were you call the customer service line and report that store. Bad management and that is why I left working there.
What!?!? That’s totally Not right 👎🏻 for the store to separate 😮they also do that with the water 💦 packs. They should be sold-as they came into the store!!
I agree with your statement about restaurants. It’s ridiculous to spend that much for food you can make at home. Okay, I want to see you make the crafts in that book😂😂😂 Hugs, friend!
They are I love all the employees! They are giving less and less hours to them now and it’s hard to run a store like that 😪 breaks my heart things I have been told
My local store sold these bars SINGLE… just as they did the 2 pack face masks. Made me so mad especially when I go down the road an hour and they sell them by the box/2pack. GET IT TOGETHER DT!
Yeah some stores are doing things the right way then others are not. I'm still not happy about the price increases either. 😭 Im still a dt shopper but very selective on what I do get. Gotta save money where ever we can. 🙂
I've been did my $2 trees and found those bars in their boxes full size. My son like the double chocolate one. I saw the cookies but they were peanut butter and I didn't think my kids would go for that
OMG!! I just paid $10 for that coffee pot descaler..exact same bottle! They shouldn't break open packages and sell the bars separately. My stores never get the really popular stuff. I have 3 stores in my city and not 1 got the Sesame Street COSMETICS!!! You got a great haul.
Wow!!!!! I was thinking it was around 8 bucks or so dang! Right I really want to know why they do that? I don’t get it! Yea I have not found much! :( hoping your day is going amazing 🤩
I agree with you that things are changing the prices are rising they are ceparating items is just sad because serting people go there for the deals and to safe some money specially with the economy being so high and groceries are overly expensive
I wonder if it's just new employees or if the manager are telling them to take them out. Kcmo we don't get alot of the good deals you find. But hopefully you and your family have a Fabulous week, know it's been rough. TFS..
Right I want to ask without sounding rude I’m really curious I don’t get it! It makes me mad everything is going up and now I have to pay over 6 dollars for a box of bars at the dollar tree 🤪 that’s not a deal at all!
Hey sweetie them beast bars I bought them in a box the other day in one of my dollar tree so today I went one half hour away from me and they had cut off the top of the box and selling it for 1.25 a piece and then I went to another one and she said that the manager said that they supposed to sell them separately I was like I’m not paying 1.25 for them small bars she was like me neither I said well I got mine lol I found the whole set of the twist hair products u have a great night
Hello ❤️ dang! This I think is my number one bummer about the Dt! WOW now that’s amazing 🤩 I love Dt we can get good deals but I get upset about this type of stuff
It’s definitely gotten worse since dollar trees first came about I remember going to the dollar tree in the 70s and they had great things to choose from I got a metal mesh pasta strainer it’s vintage now and I use it all the time! It’s my favorite strainer I put it in the dishwasher too it never rusted or dented! SO GOOD 😊
I'm with ya about the great foodie finds and stocking up. When we eat out it's soooo expensive too. Love getting stock up Items as well. We tried the cookies my kiddos enjoyed them they are soft. Me I prefer the waffle cones lol
Right I know your a family of 6 also! Ohh man that’s like 100 or more bucks just for a dinner :( is your stores breaking up things like that? I might have to ask them next time ❤️ I don’t want to sound rude but I’m curious 🧐
Hi Pookie I got thosemr beast feastables in a 6 pack honestly they can open them up and sell them individually they were gross 😂😂 the chic chip bar ones were so bad I couldn't even finish it but the lb choc chip cookies from same guy are delicious I love those 😉 I've seen what you're talking about the 15 pack water I got as a whole case but I saw those broken up sold individually 🤔 also those granola bars that was a box they cut them open and sold those too by bar so yeah I know what you mean its annoying when it comes in the store one way and you see it different at the $1 tree I love when I find things on clearance for .50 & .75 cents too great buys 😎
I was thinking maybe some employees think they are meant to be individually sold considering what they are 🤷🏻♀️ maybe idk 😂 When I see stuff like this I tell them, in case they really don’t know. Then maybe they can fix it 🙈 I know, I know….I’m being to nice lol. Cause there is the alternative…they know…but they also know they can make $5 a box that corporate would never catch. Not saying its right AT ALL but it is rough out here since Covid 😢
Very true things have not been the same at all and everything is going down hill!! I thought about asking maybe I’ll ask next time ❤️ I love the Dt but sometimes this stuff gets to me
The great thing about peppermint Is that it will keep bugs away. So a lot of people that I have cleaned for said that they had started noticing like ants. Or a few of the spiders or whatever not a lot. So I will whip out peppermint oil peppermint spray. And it keeps them away
I have the spray in the cleaner. And I love it. I think it works really good. I have not tried the wipes seen it. So I will have to go back and see about those.
Great haul need to find the cookbook
I love when the Dt gets in good cookbooks
Some people are saying that some stores are gatekeeping certain popular items so customers can't buy them 😮 Have you heard about that Lisa?
Yep I have hear lots of people saying this in the comments:/
Same thing with another UA-camr CraftyGirl. In her video and in the comments. Dt is slacking smh.
Oooh, I hope I can find that de scaling solution! Great find! I hope it works! Similar sized cleaners are $9-$15 in stores!
Right I’ll update you Friday ❤️❤️❤️
Hey pookie. My dts are also selling the bars individually. I went out of town and found the boxes. I really really wish the dt would put limits on the hot items. For example the sesame Street set. Resellers are coming thru and clearing the shelves and I think everyone should have a chance to get the hot items. I went to one of my dts and the manager told me she sold out of everything in 30 mins to 4 ppl. That is bullshit. Sorry if I offended anyone, that's just my opinion. Jen.
I missed when things were only $1.00. I go to manny dollar tree in my city and they are crap!
Yes it’s just not the same :( I’m kinda bummed I love the Dt but sad
John Oliver did a show on the Dollar Tree. It's on max, but it's available on UA-cam. It was interesting. Great show! I always I love your vids.
Some DT’s in MA do that. The one I worked at always did that and it pissed me off. They do it with drinks, socks, anything in big packs, which is not right and I HATE when they do it.
I’m sure those bars are labeled as not for individual sale. Good sign of bad management at certain stores.
Right :( I’m kinda sad about it!!!
Also, do the bars have a barcode on the wrapper? How are they scanning them individually?😤 I haven’t found any of his snacks yet but, I’m on the lookout!
Hi, Lisa👋🏽 Dollar Tree will have a shortage of merchandise. In the next coming days. A DT Manager received an email saying that the trucks are being rerouted to Oklahoma.

Ohh wow thank you so much for that information I really appreciate it so much! Ugh I’m not a fan of another price hike:(
Glad I’m not the only one! It’s so strange, some DT employees often act like it’s coming out of their pockets 😂
Right?! So true! Feel the same...actually still bothers me that it's a $1.25. And what more..plus prices!! 😤. Enjoyed your haul, love your shares 😊
I don’t know if it was a direct result, but I complained to customer support about how incredibly messy and under stocked two of my local Dollar Trees were. I went in a week later and both of them had staff from corporate that were cleaning and stocking.
I know it’s been so hard! They have been cutting hours it’s so hard!! :( and then then dealing with so much stuff that happens in the store :(
A lot of times the individual bar is labeled that is not to be sold individually so that is a clue they should not be opening the packages. I haven't found any Mr. Beast stuff.
Nice haul.
Oh.....please do a video on what you know 😊
I'm still not over the 25 cent hike!!! And I think it's about to go higher
We pay up to 2.00 in Canada and your dollar is way better than ours. Plus we sometimes don’t get the same things and the Canadian dollar tree staff flip out if I ask about something I saw online from the US.
Hi Lisa, Thanks for sharing, I am in upstate NY and the Dollar Trees have been to taking the boxes of Feastables and breaking them up and are selling them $1.25 a bar. 😠 I think they should not be allowed to do that. (just my option) I feel like we are getting ripped off! If they do that, they should be making them a lower price not $1,25.
Right! Now it’s over 6 dollars if I want the box 🤯 that feels not ok! It’s dollar tree not Safeway or a higher end store!!!
Here in Chicago too.
Nice haul!!!! Where did you find the cookbooks? Just wanted to say that I look forward to your hauls every week and you are the reason I still shop at Dollar Tree.....thanks
My favorite store was selling them as individual bars!!! It made me soo mad!! They must have had at least 50-60 of each flavor.

Mine is the same for now but right I miss the days of the old dollar tree! Makes me sad 😢
When they bought family dollar things started to go bad. They couldnt save F D so they are evolving DT into more if a FD. Also, when they hired the former Dollar General big wig things also started going downhill. I'm looking for dollar deals in other stores. Done with DT.
I work at DT and those MrBeast are to be sold in the box not opened and sold separately
It’s so crazy how each Dt is so different:( it’s the person that’s stocking them separate them?
I'm an ASM and everyday I do several eye rolls at what people do when they are putting the freight out.
Peace Tracy, rather than roll your eyes, is there a legit reason you can't correct/address the situation so the staff/stockers etc realize what they're doing is WRONG?
They should make the little solar lanterns in the shape of fruits. I have what I call a "LIGHT GARDEN" where I buy just one of the solar lights the DT gets and I just have them all grouped together like a flower bed and I have them all different heights and colors and shapes. Brings me joy and I have my favorites.
It’s going to get to 93 here in Georgia today and 94 tomorrow
Wow!!!!!! That’s warm!
They do that here in Texas stores.
Yes, I'm anoy ,that's how they are selling them here in Chicago.
Tfs Lisa!❤
OK, you asked & here's my take: I am a die hard $🌳 diva. No I do not like the changes they are making. Yes there are still deals to be had, HOWEVER, dt can do better! I went to 2 of my local stores & with this new pricing I found the same item for two different prices. Also, I've noticed some stores do take apart the multipacks & sell them individually. Very frustrating & is gradually turning me off from shopping more regularly. 😢 love you & your content ❤️
That coffee maker cleaner is about 5 bucks at Walmart,you use the whole bottle when cleaning the maker.
Those bars I haven't seen at any of my DT's, but I have seen DT open items & sell things for $1.25 each. I have also seen ppl from other states buy something for $1.25 & when I find it, they have it for a higher price.

That coffee is delicious. My bf & I give it 2 thumbs up.
I hate when they open the boxes and try to sell them individually! They did that awhile ago with the kcups.
Right makes me bummed
Thanks for sharing… excited to find the steaming bags…
Pineapple Pookie You Must Warn Me W/Ya Girl I Mean That Eye Roll So Fast Like
OMG...
Hello ❤️❤️❤️ you just make me smile 😀
Happy you found the whole box , my stores are selling them separate , the employees always keep the good stuff back for their self or their families , which sucks .
Same my store split them up in FL
See that makes me so sad! I wonder why some do that?
I could write a very long comment about how I feel about Dollar tree raising their prices, but I will just keep it short and sweet.

Great haul & finds, Lisa. I planted seed garden 🌱 early this year, (N Midwest). Spinach & lettuce almost ready to pick. Amazing🎉 Have fun🪴 🍅
How amazing I’m going to start this weekend I can’t wait :)
I look at it like Im either gonna deal with dollar tree and their small price increases or get stuck paying the ridiculous price at walmart or Target . I will never find the products I buy at DT anywhere for less than $4-5$. I despise Walmart , and Target is for wealthy people prices are ridiculous 😮 I will take DT and Dollar General anyday
Everything is a means to an end. All good things must come to an end. Its all true, but dang, it makes things harder.
I bought the Cooking for a Fast Metabolism cookbook and I have made several of the recipes. They were super tasty!
Ohh sweet thanks so much I’m excited to try them
That right they are opening the boxes, I will not go into the stores that are doing that!!😢
Right it’s upsetting! Why do they do that! Everything is going up in price but I don’t think they should do that! Seems not ok to me ❤️
I really wish I enjoyed cooking! But I hate it!! Air frying is cooking for me! Lol 😂😂
We got you covered for everything ❤️
Thanks for another great haul Pookie! I would be ticked off to see them selling the bars separately. Greedy greedy greedy! I still love the hunt for a good bargain but those little things make it a bummer.
I hope you are having a good week. 💕
Right I was kinda upset seeing that! I love the Dt and love hunting for the deals! I hope the Dt keeps getting in amazing deals
If they are not labeled " not for individual sale" then they in fact can seperate them. Yes it does irritate me to no end.
Bummer :(
My dollar tree is fine no problems my store sells them in the box it doesn't seperate them
That’s awesome 🤩 a lot of mine don’t do that but this new one was not :( so bummed they do that
I don’t like the recent addition of prices printed on product wrapping, I feel it’s tacky. Also the shrinkage of quantity combined with the increase in price annoys me as it seems deceptive, examples the thank you cards now have four instead of eight so you’re paying 25% more for half as much. An increase of 150 %. Another example, coffee filters now have only 100 when they used to contain 150. There are still bargains but one has to be alert. I still enjoy the thrill of the hunt but I don’t like the direction this is taking.
I love the dollar tree but they keep going up on prices and trying to rip you off by breaking things down to sell individually.
Right! I’m really sad about it
To clean my coffee maker I use white vinegar and water
Ohh yes!!! Vinegar is amazing I can’t believe all you can do with it 🤩
Them selling the bars individually would infuriate me. I'd be tempted to open up the bag of cookies and dump them on the shelf and tell them to sell each cookie individually. 🤣 They did that with the 4 packs of Evian canned sparkling water. Get on the ball, DT!!
It’s sad :( everything is going up and now seeing that! It’s like now over 6 dollars if you want a box :( just not worth I don’t think! It’s not a high end grocery store
They are breaking the law doing that, they are probably labeled not individually for sale
Our DT has 4 Judy Blume books . It took a lot of self discipline on my part to resist purchasing them.
You know it's getting bad when your teenagers say I remember the good old days.
Right :(
Hi Lisa I had that happen with the 4 pk of flavored seltzer there are only 2 flavors and the 4pk is $1.25 plus deposit. I have twice in two different DT had people try to charge me $1.25 each can. They had to get managers involved to verify it is def $1.25 per 4 pk. 🥰
Ohh no 😩 see I think with the store changing things are getting confusing 🫤
One dollar tree did that to me by selling the bars individual and another sold them in the boxes.What sucks is they had 5 pack on my receipt.
:( I don’t understand stand why
I asked the dollar tree that sold me the boxed ones and they said maybe the other store didn't know they were to be sold like that.
I made boneless pork ribs in the oven with doctored up bbq sauce.They turned out so good and tender.😊
Yummy!!!!! 😋 you think they would have a list or a note from someone saying this sells like this? I remember when I was a manager at a store I had a list of instructions
I don't know but I was thinking the next time I go there I would let them know what happened.
Sadly at several stores I go to , do separate items & many employees buy many name brand items & not putting them out
I have been hearing that :( I miss the old days
Yes that's how ours are. Don't find many of the name brand things. We never get any name brand socks, t shirts or underwear others were getting.
Unfortunately that’s what’s going on at my closest DT. I went yesterday and there were two dented boxes of the Resses Mini cereal sitting on the shelf. I took one and was going about my own business when and employee literally stopped me and asked me where I got the box. She openly admitted she had boxes on her cart because “it’s all my son will eat”. She basically admitted she didn’t put the whole case on the floor and was about to accuse me of taking product off her cart.
It makes me not want to go back. Honestly if it wasn’t for the bakery seconds they get weekly, I don’t think I’d shop there anymore. They never have enough cashiers and this store is obviously not stocking everything they get
I dont shop at dollar tree as much anymore mainly because my store is never fully stocked anymore.
I thought selling single serving out of a box was illegal. Also, Dollar Tree may not be training their employees properly about laws/rulrs and that’s on corporate
I think is miscommunication somewheres between dallar trees?
Yep I’m thinking so from what other people are commenting
I have to know where you got your shirt, I LOVE it!!! 🤗
Hi Lisa! I work as a Stocker at my Dollar Tree and I think what's happening at some stores is the person who stocks the items doesn't look at the package count on the case. It tells you if things are sold individually or like a whole box or a six pack for example.
Hello thank you so much for your comment I really appreciate it!! Ok I thought they had a list! Or something like that! I wonder why the manager is not catching that mistake! Thanks so much for helping ❤️
Yes! This is why I always bring it to their attention. ❤
If they're anything like the manager at my store, they are probably overloaded with a ton to do and they may not have noticed. We haven't gotten those bars yet, but if we do, I will check the label and see what the actual count should be.
Hi Lisa, so we finally got those bars in and they are definitely labeled to be sold individually, not by the box.
HI Lisa, haven't commented in a while now. Love your peanuts shirt. Would love to know where it came from. I have minimized my shopping due to the higher prices at DT but many things are still a bargain. I over shopped too many DIY items and my house is full of that stuff still (since the pandemic). Hence I only try to buy what I need or will use realistically. I was upset over the .25 increase but now I see so many other things that have really skyrocketed that .25 seems very minimal now. I would love it if you could call the DT home office and inquire re the DT policy of unpackaging and selling individual items from larger packaging. I can't say I have noticed it my stores (Bay Area, CA ) but I would call and complain if I did. Well, thanks for all you do! Enjoy your summer & the beach! 🥰
Selling separately at my store. Like get real, DT. Corporate needs to advise the stores on how to separate or not separate items. Get your crap together. They don't seem to have issues raising the prices so you know they could send a memo if they freaking wanted.
Yep I think that’s it! From what others are commenting ❤️
I am not happy with DT and all the different pricing! I use to love "the hunt" but now find myself not excited to go there anymore.
Yea it’s sad :(
Have you ever spoken to a manager about this? Nancy
My DT never keeps the same employees every time i go there someone new.
Running vinegar through a coffee pot will descale it.
I have heard that some of the things that are being hauled, the employees keep for themself which is fine, but they also sell on sites like ebay , and that's why we never see it in our store. I will say personally I have asked a couple times at two different stores for something I saw hauled and they look down and just say no we don't have it. I saw a video of a woman that wanted 4 hand santizers that everyone is hauling, she wanted them for her kids teachers she was fixing a teacher appreciation basket for them, and wanted to include that. she went to the DT and could not find them, as she was leaving she saw a woman with her husband leaving and she had several, so she asked where did you find that, and she said you have to ask the manager for it. so she went back in ask the manager and she brought out a whole box full of them, and she running her hand thru it like she was counting them, and then she said I can only give you 2. she said I needed 4 for my kids teachers, and she said I am sorry I can only give you 2. something is wrong here. and yes I have seen them break up boxes and sell things that should be sold in the box they came in.. sorry this is long. just wanted to vent since you wanted to know what we thought.
thank you Lisa for your hauls and telling us on friday what not to buy. you help us all out..
I really appreciate you comment I know we’re all sad and mad and kinda bummed with the Dt! WOW i wonder if we have to ask because people are taken them without paying or just to keep people from buying it up! Makes me sad! Dollar tree has changed a lot in the last few years! I love the Dt but makes me kinda sad when that stuff happens
@@PookiesView Makes me sad too. I will still shop there but I don't like some things that are happening. I don't like seeing the $1.25 printed on stuff.. that makes it look cheap. so yes I am sad too
Right I’ll go because we can still for now find good deals but if they keep it up I’m not sure how long the store is going to last!
Where did you get your cool shirt?
Ross :) they have some amazing tops right now
I’m not happy about the printed price on products, it’s a bit tacky especially if you gift items. I’m always up front about the source so it isn’t that. Also I’m not happy about getting less on top of the price increase. Examples, thank you cards were in packs of 8 and now you only get 4. Coffee filters went from 150 to 100 count. I understand $🌲may have to pay more but we’re talking about high percentage increases. The trend isn’t good.
When the dollar tree is part of corporate greed we really are in trouble
Very furious w/ my main DT. It has been a hot mess since January. New management too. The other DT says they trying but going on five months? Boxes everywhere. Carts everywhere. Mother Day stuff almost nil. Frustrating beyond belief.
:( we had a store get fined in Oregon for that! It was kinda bad! but I feel so bad for the employees I heard there hours are getting cut even more :( I don’t like the bad change at all! I love the Dt but sometimes it’s making me sad 😔
❤❤❤ The socks are so cute.
Right I can’t believe all the good socks 🤩 and they just keep coming
Aggravates me to no end when some stores separate multi-packaged food and drinks. I wonder if they think they are pulling the wool over our eyes or if they just don’t know any better?
I haven’t found the MrBeast bars yet, but the chocolate chip cookies are pretty good. They are soft. I liked them. Thanks for showing us some new goodies.
Right I don’t understand why at one but not the other? Don’t all DTs have a rule on it or they can do whatever? I should ask next time but I don’t want to come across rude but I’m just curious 🧐 ohh yummy
Sad that the employees are opening boxes and selling individually. If I were you call the customer service line and report that store. Bad management and that is why I left working there.
Hey Lisa. Tfs a great DT haul. Have a great week. 🩷
What!?!? That’s totally Not right 👎🏻 for the store to separate 😮they also do that with the water 💦 packs. They should be sold-as they came into the store!!
:( makes me sad! I just miss the old days! Let’s hope the Dt can do better!!!
I agree with your statement about restaurants. It’s ridiculous to spend that much for food you can make at home.
Okay, I want to see you make the crafts in that book😂😂😂
Hugs, friend!
Right!!! It’s so expensive!! Now that would be a funny video I’m so bad 😂 big hugs 🤗
The staff use to be alot more friendly they must be overworked but it makes you not want to go in there i stop there because its convenient 😊
They are I love all the employees! They are giving less and less hours to them now and it’s hard to run a store like that 😪 breaks my heart things I have been told
My local store sold these bars SINGLE… just as they did the 2 pack face masks. Made me so mad especially when I go down the road an hour and they sell them by the box/2pack. GET IT TOGETHER DT!
Right i wonder why? At some point it’s got going to be a good deal! I’m sad it’s getting harder and harder to find deals!!
@@PookiesViewme too, I miss the old days 😂🤣😂
I think it is illegal to sell them individually because they might not have the ingredients listed on the bars. Nancy
Yeah some stores are doing things the right way then others are not. I'm still not happy about the price increases either. 😭 Im still a dt shopper but very selective on what I do get. Gotta save money where ever we can. 🙂
Yep I think it’s a little bit of everything for me :( i love the Dt but stuff like separating stuff makes me mad
I've been did my $2 trees and found those bars in their boxes full size. My son like the double chocolate one. I saw the cookies but they were peanut butter and I didn't think my kids would go for that
That’s good I was so sad seeing them sold separately:( like grrr good deals are fading!
@@PookiesView I agree good deals are fading
OMG!! I just paid $10 for that coffee pot descaler..exact same bottle! They shouldn't break open packages and sell the bars separately. My stores never get the really popular stuff. I have 3 stores in my city and not 1 got the Sesame Street COSMETICS!!! You got a great haul.
Wow!!!!! I was thinking it was around 8 bucks or so dang! Right I really want to know why they do that? I don’t get it! Yea I have not found much! :( hoping your day is going amazing 🤩
@@PookiesView I forgot to tell you that I love your curly hair! ❤️
I agree with you that things are changing the prices are rising they are ceparating items is just sad because serting people go there for the deals and to safe some money specially with the economy being so high and groceries are overly expensive
Yes!!! I think that’s upsetting a lot! Its like every time I turn around things keep going up and by separating stuff just adds more to my list of grr
@@PookiesView highly agree with you and all they do is hurt there business
I wonder if it's just new employees or if the manager are telling them to take them out.
Kcmo we don't get alot of the good deals you find.
But hopefully you and your family have a Fabulous week, know it's been rough. TFS..
Right I want to ask without sounding rude I’m really curious I don’t get it! It makes me mad everything is going up and now I have to pay over 6 dollars for a box of bars at the dollar tree 🤪 that’s not a deal at all!
I hope the Dollar Tree 1.25 items don’t go up to 1.50 like I keep hearing. That’s how I feel. 😊
I’m sad :( I hate change like that
Hey sweetie them beast bars I bought them in a box the other day in one of my dollar tree so today I went one half hour away from me and they had cut off the top of the box and selling it for 1.25 a piece and then I went to another one and she said that the manager said that they supposed to sell them separately I was like I’m not paying 1.25 for them small bars she was like me neither I said well I got mine lol I found the whole set of the twist hair products u have a great night
Hello ❤️ dang! This I think is my number one bummer about the Dt! WOW now that’s amazing 🤩 I love Dt we can get good deals but I get upset about this type of stuff
Great haul Lisa, thank you! 😊
It’s definitely gotten worse since dollar trees first came about I remember going to the dollar tree in the 70s and they had great things to choose from I got a metal mesh pasta strainer it’s vintage now and I use it all the time! It’s my favorite strainer I put it in the dishwasher too it never rusted or dented! SO GOOD 😊
Wow!!! Now that’s amazing 🤩 yea I’m so sad about it! Not everyone is getting good deals :( makes me sad
Dollar Tree was around in the 70’s?? I had no idea!
I'm with ya about the great foodie finds and stocking up. When we eat out it's soooo expensive too. Love getting stock up Items as well. We tried the cookies my kiddos enjoyed them they are soft. Me I prefer the waffle cones lol
Right I know your a family of 6 also! Ohh man that’s like 100 or more bucks just for a dinner :( is your stores breaking up things like that? I might have to ask them next time ❤️ I don’t want to sound rude but I’m curious 🧐
Pookie, how much is a box of those bars normally? Just curious… they may be making a heck of a profit at $1.25 each. Not fair to us!!!
Walmart $7.92 so dollar tree would be like over 6 bucks so your not really getting a deal :( not a good one I don’t think
@@PookiesView …definitely not. Absolutely should keep in boxes
Hi Pookie I got thosemr beast feastables in a 6 pack honestly they can open them up and sell them individually they were gross 😂😂 the chic chip bar ones were so bad I couldn't even finish it but the lb choc chip cookies from same guy are delicious I love those 😉 I've seen what you're talking about the 15 pack water I got as a whole case but I saw those broken up sold individually 🤔 also those granola bars that was a box they cut them open and sold those too by bar so yeah I know what you mean its annoying when it comes in the store one way and you see it different at the $1 tree I love when I find things on clearance for .50 & .75 cents too great buys 😎
😂🤣 ohh no!!! I’ll have to try them out how funny!!! Right it’s a bummer with stuff like that happens
I used the descaling solution seemed to work !
Wonderful now that’s a good deal! And that it works even better 🤩
I love your Peanuts tshirt. May I ask where you got it?
Ross right now Ross has them and so much more :)
I was thinking maybe some employees think they are meant to be individually sold considering what they are 🤷🏻♀️ maybe idk 😂 When I see stuff like this I tell them, in case they really don’t know. Then maybe they can fix it 🙈 I know, I know….I’m being to nice lol. Cause there is the alternative…they know…but they also know they can make $5 a box that corporate would never catch. Not saying its right AT ALL but it is rough out here since Covid 😢
Very true things have not been the same at all and everything is going down hill!! I thought about asking maybe I’ll ask next time ❤️ I love the Dt but sometimes this stuff gets to me
I have seen the bars both ways in our Ohio stores.
:( it’s happening more and more 😢
Hi I work for dollar tree 27 years I don't like the changes because some stuff there go and some not
It’s changed a lot in the last few years! Makes me sad! I love the Dt but when I see stuff like that it makes me bummed 🙁
I saw where someone said the wipes in the container are thinner than the ones in the pack. Just an fyi for you and others 😊
Ohh thank you so much 😊 I really appreciate your comment
@@PookiesViewyou are welcome! 😊
I love when you guys help ❤️
