    Sorry, I have been in retail business for 44 yrs. The big problem is we have too many CEO’s and higher management making the big bucks. We need more workers in the dollar tree stores. In my dollar tree we sometimes have 2 workers. That’s not enough when 1 needs to help customers and 1 needs to restock, clean, help customers on the floor merchandise. To many chiefs and you know the rest. Love your content ❤

I was told that I have a tumor on my left temperal lobe, they didn't tell me the size, they just said that they caught it early enough that they are going to try medication first which is some kind of steroid that starts now (I have the medication) and have an appointment with a Neurosurgeon in June. We are praying and believing that when I go in June, the tumor won't be there. Thank you in advance. God Bless.

  • @Tarkus_
    @Tarkus_ 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +348

    I wish I shared your optimism, but I think they're trending towards only the really trash items remaining $1.25 (often cheaper at Walmart and elsewhere). The fact that the CEO came from Dollar General is not a good sign, because those stores are mostly a complete waste of time. The more they normalize higher prices, the less value there will be for consumers, because they are no longer pressured to meet lower prices.

Most of the items that I see shown from different creators are not available at any of my stores. 4. A cashier at 1 of the stores told me that sizes or quantity is already changing. For example, if you previously got something that contained 32 ounces, it will now only be available in 15 ounce packaging…..so be aware of this…you’ll be getting less for the same $1.25 or possibly more expensive!

    I've read that the CEO wants higher-priced items mingled together with lower-priced items on the shelves. DT stores are short-staffed now as it is. So, if all items aren't going to be clearly marked price-wise, it will get interesting at checkout. At least now, the $3/$5 items are kept together in one separate section.

      ⁠​⁠@@patriciamcdermott9589If I had to guess most of the store complaint comments are coming from ppl in larger cities & many on East or West coast. There are so many large cities & higher population density in these areas which means more customers buying stuff & making messes. Then longer lines & constant Restocking but the pay is not enough for the added amount of work created by more customers. These stores are probably busy most of the time so nothing gets done.

      I’m guessing you live in a larger city. I’m sure most complaints of bad stores come from Urban Areas in big cities. If you go to a nice & more expensive suburb or smaller towns where most people are middle class the stores are nicer. Less traffic eases all the problems plus maintains staff if probably not as hard

    I agree the $1.25 has lead to so much better products and Dollar General has been filling the gap with their dollar section on cleaners baggies etc. I think the fun part is you don't have to limit yourself like we can all go buy a few items at a $1.25 and get stuff that just makes you happy or you want to try without worrying over the cost, putting it back, etc. it's just so freeing when you have to weigh all your other purchasing decisions. Like I can freely but 4 items and know I'm under $5.50 with tax

    I mostly stick to the 1.25 items & love all the new ones, particularly in the crafting section, and the increase in the quality of the merchandise at that lower price point. I did get something from Plus recently, a name-brand Peeps stuffed toy - almost 2 feet tall, and tie-dyed in pretty Easter pastels. I love it, it’s excellent quality, and so much less expensive than Easter plush in other stores ($5). To me, it was a good deal. But to me, the thrill of DT is finding cool, useful things at the regular price point, so I’ll continue to mostly buy those.

    • @angelagregory3300
      @angelagregory3300 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      We did this years ago on our weekend camping trips only we used a smaller size instead of the huge turkey pans. Here’s why~line the pan with a piece of heavy-duty foil before you add the coals. After grilling your food, lift out foil along with the ashes and use the pan for storing the leftover food! You could use foil as a lid but by using the aluminum lid that comes with the pan, it’s much sturdier and helps with possible spills AND it fits right inside your cooler. Plus, you won’t even need a pan to reheat leftovers! Just set the aluminum pan (with lid) on the rack over your campfire. Once it’s nice and hot, move cooked food to one side, then scramble some eggs (no extra grease needed) and breakfast is served! Easy peasy, lemon squeezy! 😊

    I think you are a fantastic - um - family admin show. I know we love you and your family! And Dollar Tree is critical to our local economy - in poorer parts of CA. Marginalized and stressed out can't even afford to shop at Walmart any more. And we will seriously miss the produce section at 99c stores as an alternative to the private-equity owned mega grocery chains that seem to think tomatoes should cost more than hamburger and carrots more than chicken per pound. Our choice is to just not eat fresh food and shop Amazon for the deals. So the survival of the Dollar Tree is our survival, for sure. And we hope they bring key produce in. Although the closest one to me needs serious maintenance upgrade - and we can't event take the carts out of the store any more. Since the "new board and CEO." Thanks for addressing that!

  • @perfectlyimperfectpressons

    From my understanding, they aren't so much raising prices as they are trying to compete with larger stores. A lot of people are only able to shop at DT, so they are basically trying to make their stores more convenient for people. DT is owned by Family Dollar, so it seems like they are trying to offer some of the same options as Family Dollar stores do. I might be interpreting it wrong, but that's my understanding. They are also reducing prices back down to $1 on hundred of items. The article didn't specify which items though. It just said that hundreds of items (I think it said around 300 items) would be reduced. I mean, it doesn't really matter to me because DT is still one of my favorite stores to shop at. Especially for craft/DIY items, snack foods and office (or in my case nail room) supplies.

Week after week, season after season, video after video, I live in envy of Kathryn's DollarTree stores. Same goes for most of the other DollarTree haul and DT crafting channels on TH-cam. As I watch them, I make a wish list of things to look out for when I shop but am usually not able to find half of what they have in their videos because my local DTs aren't nearly as well stocked. Sigh. Oh, well. I do still wish they hadn't bumped the price of their everyday items from a dollar. I find myself shopping there less as a result.

    I used to love Dollartree, but when they put the price up to $1.25 (folks that is a 25% increase) and to add fuel to the fire, all the $1.25 items started getting smaller, weigh less or come in half sizes, so you were totally getting the short end of the stick. I check everything with Walmart, and Aldi, and sometimes you get a way better deal at Walmart or Aldi than you do at Dollartree. Pays to know your prices AND you item size. One store had green tea 40 bags right next to the green tea (same label) that had 100 bags. Duh...... Olives that were 8 oz. are now 6 oz. Everything is smaller for more money.
