Dollar 🌳 needs to take the extra money they are charging us to hire and pay more staff to keep those store clean and those lines down. That’s what I better see with all these price increases or else they can count me out!!
At my store we have at least 3 stockers and 2 cashiers one is the main cashier and assistant managers is the other one.
🤣🤣 I know that’s right!
The fun about Dollar Tree is the hunt for the cool stuff for $1.25. They are gonna take all the fun out of shopping there.
I am with you. It was a thrill to go in and see what you can find, and not worry about the price! You knew it was $1.00 then $1.25. Now it’s not the same. 😢
They put family dollar and dollar tree in one store. Like you said they better chill because they are going to be out of business before we know it. Thats what they will get for becoming greedy and trying to be a store they never should have tried to be. Thanks for sharing 😊
Family Dollar has a lot of the items for $1.
I agree, we’re going to have a problem. And then there’s the added problem of smaller quantity. Example, coffee filters went from 150 count to 100 and notecard packs went from 8 to 4 count. The thrill of the hunt may not compensate for the negatives of multiple prices and less value. And the prices printed on the products are tacky for gifting and baskets. Our only way to protest may be to buy less and shop more elsewhere. Really much of which I buy is not a necessity.
If you hadn't heard, DT figured out that people who they think can "afford" to spend more are shopping there. Things that they find are popular, i.e., the calendars, will be higher priced now. It is a shame. I love DT, but they are going to cause other stores to go lower. I have seen Target doing lower dollar spot items now! Enjoyed the haul. So cute the fruits!!!
welcome to Family Dollar Tree
I’ve actually been finding a lot of stuff cheaper at Dollar General Store, Walmart, and Family Dollar Store. I’m so glad to be able to get the cheaper prices back.
All my Dollar Trees have fans for sale right now for $19!!!! I was like "Oh heck no, they just over did it!"
Marie great haul,prayers for Texas.All be safe.
I'm half way through watching this video but had to comment right away. I bought those liners from Temu for my air fryer. Caution, when the air fryer goes on it creates a sucktion of air that raises the liner up to the top of the burner and the paper can burn/catch fire if there aren't enough things on the liner to weigh it down as in heavy pieces of food. So please never leave your air fryer unattended or with minimal food that can cause this reaction. OK, bk to video.
someone told me that their daughter just uses coffee filters as a liner (probably for the small size air fryer)
It's weird that I was obsessed with dollar tree at one dollar, sad can't get into it much any longer, Walmart can be cheaper on alot of items!! It's the end of and Era for sure 😢
I agree about the prices! I feel like we're headed to a Dollar General situation. Fine if they want to, but I won't be making special trips. I mean, if I can get the same thing for the same price at Walmart/Target or somewhere else where I'm already shopping....then what's the point? 🤷🏻♀️ Doesn't have the same "spree" feeling if I'm back to checking every price tag. We'll see.....
I agree.
Thank you!
I will keep my eyes open for the clear backpack.
I want to use it for my "grab + go" emergency bag for my cat.
Living in San Diego + on the edge of a nature preserve, I have to be ready to QUICKLY evacuate.
I did evacuate in 2017. (House was safe - thank God!!)
Having a clear backpack for my cat, I can easily see if I have all his food + meds.
😻
I totally agree with you! Going up to $1.25 was a shock to get over, but $1.50??!! If so though, they better improve the quality on some things like the calendars (if that is the best one they are going to give us)!
I go to dollar general. I find item's for a 1.oo. Yes ma'am!!!!
That clear backpack you can take to concerts/sporting events!
I remember during the Pandemic when the prices were raised to $1.25 and everyone was upset.
They interviewed the CEO of DT. He STATED “ This is NOT a permanent thing. Right now our Suppliers have increased their prices. How can WE CALL OURSELVES the Dollar Tree when we’re CHARGING a $1.25? 😮😢
Ohhhhh yeah also totally agree with you on the return/exchange policy. They should now issue refunds now as well
Omg Marie, you kill me!!!😅 I agree 100% with you . I think they've already lost a lot of customers with the .25 increase but now to increase the calenders to $1.50 and who knows what else....
Don't agree. I think this will definitely back fire on them.
Thanks for sharing your hauls, and always cracking me up!!😅😅😅😅
Dollar General still has candy, some cleaning products and calendars for $1.00. Some items are cheaper there than the new Dollartree prices. There’s a whole aisle of $1.00 items at Dollar General with some great buys 😉
Hang the clear back packs on the hooks!
The Arnold Palmer drink is named for this OG golf pro. The GOAT of his time.
I agree dollar tree going in a whole new direction.
0:20 Awwww you should have made Loki a pup cup!
I remember when people would go up to the Dollartree cashier and ask "How much is this?"
and people in line would smile and say "Everything's a dollar"
then they wouldn't quite believe it and wave the item at the cashier and say "even this?"
Yup good times in 💲🌳
I'm so bummed about the pricing at Dollar Tree and I agree that refunds should be issued instead of exchanges. That is something I never considered. On another note, I have started watching your older videos and they are so much fun! You are my favorite UA-camr!
I would just like the journals plain with no embossing or imprints ect.
The price tag really makes it hard for gift baskets!🙁 love all your channels ❤️
I hear what your saying about price changes; I am retired so I still love the Dollar Tree; fun to shop & browse 🥹
Thank for opening items! Really helps and that is why I personally watch hauls! Thanks
I think that popularity of DT among social media along with the inflation and the new owners have all contributed to the price increases.
I’m afraid Dollar tree is going down the same road 99 cent store took and soon will be out of business just like the 99 cent store. 😔
No they will not go out of business. All walks of life shop at the dollar tree and will continue to do so.
Precisely
History bound to repeat itself
I agree! It feels like the beginning of the end!
Possibly but at the same time maybe DT will get a boost now that one of their biggest competitors died out when 99 folded. 😢. I sure do miss 99 though, I liked them way more if all stores are driving prices past a dollar anyway!
I already heard that the reason they’re increasing the prices again is because they believe we can afford it….not that prices went up for them. In other words….greed. The last price hike didn’t seem to hurt too much, so they figure this one won’t either. I’ve already noticed some of the items are smaller/contain less. Thinking of it from corporate’s point of view, the first 25 cent increase was 25%….a huge increase. The next 25 cents will be a 20% increase. Imagine what that is on their bottom line!
: : Marie … the manager at my local DT admitted to me they were doing a soft launch to test prices this year but ultimately they are turning ALL DTs into Dollar General formats. End of an era for sure. In Oregon when it was $1 with no tax I could just count my items and know the total cost … now I have to “math”. lol : :
Love the rant! We should all be like hey dollar tree, not everyone is within the $200,000, $150,000 threshold they feel their new cliente is... its a slap in the face to your loyal customers, i used to be faithful to 99cent only look how that ended, i took my money to dollar tree
Im so sad about the dollar tree change all together. 😢
I am the same age as you and have been shopping at DT since they opened! I was so upset when they changed it to 1.25, but i got over it. The last 2 months I found myself not even enjoying the DT as much as i used to because it has changed so much. They will be sorry in the end.
I'm with you Marie, Dollar Tree needs to stop. Ever since the former CEO OF Dollar General became the CEO of Dollar Tree he's been turning it into a Dollar General minus any dollar items. My shopping at Dollar Tree has gone down drastically since they started intermixing different priced items in the same area.
best intro & added bonus seeing sweet, handsome Loki❤ love your shirt! I do NOT know what is going on where I live with DT. stores have been a hot mess AND empty for quite some time. couldnt agree with you more on how their pricing just keeps increasing. theyre going to price themselves right out of business & rightly so
I thought the same. Didn't they learn from 99 going under? Walmart has lots of items cheaper than Dollartree. I hated the .25 increase and I've cut back from spending and now when I'm in the store I don't spend the $50+ I used to spend. I can't justify the impulse buys that I used to say, "well, it's just a dollar"
Done w dollar tree
I saw a box fan for 19.99 at the doller tree. Like what they need to change there name!!
Prices all over the place all over the store now.... just like family dollar. I will still go to look and kill time but I will be VERY selective now as to what I will buy there. Definately going there won't be as fun as it was in the past.😢 and with them printing prices on some items .... wont be items I would get for gift baskets anymore.
My sons LOVE the cream soda you hauled. Now every time I go to Dollar Tree they ask me to pick up all that I can. 🤗 Thank you for another fantastic DT haul Marie.
I can get the same cream soda at my food city grocery cheaper. My husband loves it it comes in a little carton of four
DT CEO came from dollar general so that could be part of these changes
I heard the CEO came from Family Dollar? Hmmm?
It was so much fun when everything was $1.00 for all those years! I hope that the calendars are better quality for $1.50 - the paper was pretty flimsy before. You always find great items!
Hey Marie. Love your videos. Those see through notebooks match the see through sticky notes
Plus the Bazooka Gum has the comics you can use in your junk journal too!
Definitely Corporate Greed. I did purchase two calendars and they are the exact same as they were last year no difference in quality. If they continue to increase and not better the quality, I’m done with DT.
I found the increase to 150 when I bought calenders.
The way inflation has gotten out of control the last 4 years I can see why they raised prices. The price raise is probably because they are a very popular item but like one subscriber said $1.50 is still cheaper than Walmart. I have the $3 containers and I have them full and a little on the heavier side and no problems so far. Now you can get your money back not just an exchange. If you pay by card then it goes back on your card, if you pay with cash you get your cash back but always remember to have your receipt. No receipt no exchange or refund.
I used to live in Canada so it was surprising to see the white hook, (French is crochet for hook) 😊 If you hung several in your craft room you could hang ribbon’s or scissors.
I live in southeast Pennsylvania. Our
DT's have introduced products with new prices already printed in the packaging.
Marie I think your right,they are going to be a dollar general
I went into my dollar tree yesterday. The set up made me sad. There were 1.25, 1.50, 3.00, 5.00 3.75 4.50, 7.00, and 9.00 price points. And my pet isle has all the pet stuff in the same isle with different price points in one section. It looked just like family dollar shelves.
You’re my kind of girl…”but first I’m gonna need a coffee.” ☕❤ 😌
I used to go to DT every week and I could have gone more. Now I go maybe once a month. They don't seem to carry 1/8 of what you show at my store. I guess the price increase was psychological for me. If they go up again it might just be a place where I buy my greeting cards. I notice my store is never really all that busy anymore. But honestly its good for me because I didnt need a lot of stuff I was buying. I did have a ton of stuff for my garage sale though. Not proud of that.
I use the wet pad on my swifter mop. Love them. Wash them in the washer but do not put in the dryer
I am with you Marie. I do not want Dollar Tree to turn into a Dollar General, Pop Shelf, or any other store. I Loved the days when we walked in and everything was the same price. A $1.00😢
Of course, I will still shop there. Just won’t be as easy. Love your hauls. 💛💛
Walmart in my area will price items up to 10cents below what you find the same item at DT for $1.25+. Still, a calendar for $1.50 isn't bad but I always use the free ones I get in the mail :) It really is going to impact a lot of families who rely on places such as DT to shop at. Does anyone remember the stores called Red Star? Those were my first introduction to a dollar tree type store and soon when out of business (at least in my area) due to price increases. Great haul. I always enjoy your videos so much!!
I use that microfiber duster pad to "dry mop" my floors and pick up the stuff the broom doesn't get. It works great.
V much appreciated the video showing the color bulb. TBH was on the edge of my seat during the marker sniff tests. 💛😊
I’m not a fan of the price hike. I’m already selective on $1.25. A lot of my favorites, if they go up another.25, I’ll stop buying. If I shop around and can beat the price of $1.50.
About the price of calendars. I bought sunglasses several months ago and they had the red price tag for $1.50...ug I think you're correct, they are gradually getting us use to different prices.
Idea for hooks- screw them onto a board and hang jewelry organizers from them BUT fill with stickers in your craft room for easy visual access.
We will still watch you if we have to say goodbye Dollar Tree Hello Walmart ❤
I luv the ceiling fan attachment to clean my fans, makes it so easy!
I saw the 10 and thought a list of ur 10 favorite things, 10 places u want to visit, 10 of anything
Eyeglasses are 1.50 and the big Pepsi or mountain dews are 1.75. .....it's sad
I live in NH so no sales tax, so i definitely miss spending $20 and walk out with 20 items
I'm with you--- about the prices. There is a DT in a neighboring city that I like to frequent because everything is $1.25 no surprises.
$1.50 is reasonable for a calendar . Check out the prices in Target, Walmart, etc.
Broke my heart yesterday when you showed the pic of Loxi. I know how you feel. We lost our little yorkie poo Moose today. His birthday is July 14 he almost made it to his 16th birthday. Hardest thing ever to put down your best little friends. God bless Loxi and Moose we will see you again some day.
😔🙏🏼
Dollar tree has the like metal wired black coated Baskets they have 2 sizes I thought the larger size would look cute hanging from those white hooks.
I'm not a nail girly either lol I love the nail tabs for whenever i film my UA-cam videos because i only show my hands so once im done filming i can just pop the nails right off 😂. I will tell you they don't hold up very well.
Ice tea and lemonade is an Arnold Palmer. Also, I saw that you can order the $5 containers online. There’s a 9 box minimum!
It IS the end of an era. I never believed them when they went up to $1.25 (better quality, more products, etc). Yes, the $1 calendars were great. More and more stores are having $1 sections, SO, I truly hope $Tree puts itself out of business for LYING and being GREEDY. I will go in OCCASIONALLY, but NOT as often as I used to. I'm sorry Marie. You do an EXCELLENT job.
I love your haul today, I have to tell you I was at the DT store the other day and saw big calendars and refuse to pay 1.50 for it lol but I bought the small pocket one you had and the two year pocket calendar.
Last year at the DT, I bought three navy cloth cubes with gold leaves on the front for $1.25. This year they are in the “special” aisle for $3.00!
Yes I'm seeing it here in Pa...😮
Sprecher Rootbeer is brewed in Wisconsin, where I live. It is super good!
I’ll be honest I think most things at DT are only worth $1.25 at most…
I do love the cards and the gift bags. I don’t buy food there, most of it is loaded with preservatives and sugar, and I stopped eating that kind of food…
lately I would rather go to Walmart
When hobby lobby puts their stuff on sale a lot of the times their stuff is now cheaper than dollar tree or 2-3 cents difference and it’s better quality so I go with hobby lobby. Like table scatters or picks and other decor items especially window clings
Not a fan of the price increase. I’m still complaining about the increase to $1.25. I actually won’t even buy things in the isle with the $3 and $5 items. Honestly, you can find better deals on current name brand things at Walmart and even Target when they have sales-especially for back to school supplies. For our household, we aren’t fans of the DT “dupes” in the beauty and bath products. I also find that the name brand items are not current items. I love the gift bags/gift wrap, party platters/serving bowls, stationary and office supplies, some of their seasonal decor, $1.25 organizational bins and I used to purchase quite a bit of their craft supplies but lately even my “good” DT has been BARE and hasn’t been re-stocked in forever! It is frustrating to say the least. I have 4 DT’s in about a 5-7 mile radius of me and none have the same selections or consistency. They don’t even have the same hours! Some barely have a craft isle at all. I don’t like Family Dollar or Dollar General. Not a fan of Pop Shelf. Barely a fan of Five and Below. I feel like they are all delusional for the quality of the products to pricing ratio. I’d spend a few more cents to a dollar or so for better quality or name brand at other stores-sorry, not sorry. And it may only be .25 for most things, but that adds up. Now they want up to $7 and $9 for things you can get cheaper elsewhere-nope! They are on thin ice with me. And I also agree, quit it with the dumb sayings. I prefer no sayings. I’d buy a ton of those plain notebooks and makeup bags because the clear plastic is cute and neon is cute, but I’m not carrying one that says “Bussin’” as a 41 year old🤣. To each their own, but I feel plain would be the way to go👀🙄 They should change their name to “Rip Off Tree”
You are right. I have found items cheaper at Walmart than Dollar Tree.
You could go other places but you will still shop dt. It's like saying if a certain person that gets elected to president you are gonna move but you don't
😂😂😂
I find that quality and variety greatly increased with the increase to $1.25. The 25 cents is well worth it. (My small local store does not have a 'bonus' section except in refrigerators.)
They need to chill and they need to take those big number 1’s off the buildings too.
Most things in Canada are now $2.00. Some things 1.75!
I was in Dollar Tree today and noticed price increases. I don't like it at all😢
Yes...I agree they need to chill but if they're going to do that then the sticker prices should be different colors so it's easier on the shoppers to tell the prices apart. As for the hooks...you could put one at each end and then use one of the long bars (the one you showed to do your walls) in between and hang things off of that. Love your hauls❤❤
Sprecher soda is available at Menards and you can get a rebate.
Those nail tabs are better for your nails because they aren't as damaging/harsh on your nails. After the damage the glue has done to my nails I only use the sticky tabs. Fantastic haul.
I love the candy wrappers for junk journals!! I just bought Circus Peanuts and gumballs for that same reason!
Yes!! They Definitely need to change their return policy!! You can Not make ppl, with a receipt do exchange only! Not for $5 or $10!
My DT $1.25 2024 calendar paper was much thinner cheaper paper than previous years. I gave up using it in April because the holes for hanging kept ripping and taping was just not working. I'm really hoping the quality comes back for 2025. I use the calendars daily to keep track of various health related stats. 🤞
When they announced they were closing family dollars they announced the price increases for the dollar tree. Wealthier people are now shopping Dollar Tree so they are catering to that crowd. I’m hoping that eventually means the products will get better. I love the nail tabs. I went swimming for 2 hours yesterday and my nails stayed put. Plus if one pops off you just pop on another nail tab and go on your merry way. Temu sells great sets of nail tabs.
I’ve been shopping DT from the beginning, and while prices have increased on everything, I feel as though DT has taken advantage of the situation. The stickers look very cheap to me and that’s not the feeling I used to get going there for probably 30 years. I agree with you, we can shop Walmart and Target for less on some items with better quality.
They now have extendable broom handles.
I completely where your coming from ! The entire point is THE DOLLAR 💵 TREE!! now it’s just like any other store
I'm with you on the calendars!! They also have been "recycling" the images in them. Change the front of the calendar, inside are the same 'ol images from years back. 😢
I got the tonka trucks last Christmas for my grandsons in Pennsylvania
Ironically, there are always a bunch of those calendars leftover at my stores. The glasses have been $1.50 for a while. Hopefully this is just another one-off.
Some of the cost increases might not be just greed...I just read that global shipping has had 3 increases since Oct last year. containers sent on freighters to the States and other countries are up from a $1300 charge and in May the charge was hiked to $4200! Might be cheaper if things were still made in the USA...
