You get what you pay for. Most of the stuff in Dollar Tree has always been cheap junk.

Ours is always busy. (SW Wisconsin) Hope it stays. I have a number of NON-CHINA items that I buy there on a regular basis.

Not long ago, everything at 99 Cents Only stores cost $.99. Now, very few items can be had for that price.

INFLATION - A technique to manipulate the value of currency that is used by our government to steal wealth from us.
Who remembers the Five and Dime stores like Woolwoth and Kesge?
Items that are $5.00 today were 5¢ and 10¢ back in the 1950s.

Pretty soon there won’t be any places left to loot...except private residences.

Little Caesars standard Pizza was $5.00 for many years.
Now, in the FJB Biden era, the price has gone up 60% to $8.00 or more.
But the Feral government says we are only experiencing minor inflation in the low single digits.

The value of the Dollar is what has changed, not the value of the goods. The silver value in three 1964 90% silver dimes will still buy a gallon of gas, just like the face value of those same dimes would in 1964. We have a currency whose value floats with the whims of politicians.

What do you expect for a dollar? It’s cheap! They sell a lot of the same stuff you’d find at Walmart, only in reduced sized packages. I know Frito Lay maintained a smaller, Dollar Tree only, package back when I was in the business.

Meanwhile Dolgencorp (Dollar General) just keeps building more and more stores. One was just constructed right across the Susquehanna River from another, and a bridge within a mile of both stores.

I wonder if the Levine family is completely out of the Family Dollar business? Leon Levine lived in a huge house on Sharon Road in Charlotte. Guess the family still owns the property as I read about him passing recently. I met him once, told him I owned some Family Dollar stock. I mentioned it was down. He said “Time to buy some more”. Eventually sold it at a gain. He was right.
