Dollar Tree is a store known for having a wide variety of items, including last-minute wrapping supplies, small items for goodie bags, and seasonal goods, all at very low prices. Many customers find it an excellent store for these needs. The staff are frequently described as friendly, sweet, and very helpful. However, the location has some noted drawbacks. The atmosphere is often described as sketchy or ghetto, with a dirty environment. The parking lot and surrounding area are reported to be messy, with litter and a noticeable presence of homeless people, which can make some visitors feel uncomfortable. Inside the store, aisles can be cluttered with boxes, obstructing movement. Additionally, while traditionally a dollar store, it now stocks items priced at $3 or $5, and former $1 items have increased to $1.25. Some customers feel that while the price increase is small, it adds up, and not all items represent the best value.
