There are more dollar stores to come
Dollar stores are everywhere, and their number is constantly growing at a fast pace. In 2016, there were 30.000 such stores across the US territory and it is predicted that their number will rise to more than 34,000 by 2020.
Dollar stores outnumber drug stores, given that Family Dollar for example, opens more than one store a day. Also, there are more dollar stores than the six most-important US retailers Walmart, Kroger, Costco, Home Depot, CVS and Walgreens combined.

I like Dollar Tree where EVERYTHING is $1. Some things are great buys,as others can be hardly worth a filler. You have to be a smart shopper. Well worth going there.
Some times it’s not the cost of what you are buying, it’s the aggravation you have to put up with from the store management. IE You park your vehicle at the North end of the building, at a certain time, they lock the doors at the south end of the building, then guess what? the only check out counter that is open, you guessed it the one on the south end of the building, Now your done shopping in the food dept, which is at the North end of the building, you have to travel all the way to the South end of the building to check out, after you are checked out now you have to travel back to the North end of the building to get to where you parked your vehicle!! This is Walmart management way of thinking.
I recently heard that the dollar stores cannot survive and are going to be raising their prices.
FOR me it has never ever been a choice for shopping…I find their greeting cards..(awful) sometimes gift bags are GOOD?? never ever do I buy food there. FEEL bad for the employees..but not for the owners..probably worth a LOT OF MONEY… ARE they chains?? franchises? or privately owned?
Everyone Stay SAFE…shop wherever it makes YOU Happy…
Some of the comments just drip condescension.
at 1.25 a lot of items are less expensive elsewhere
