Dollar Tree

"Seemed to have been short-handed when I first arrived, but then while l was waiting in the only open checkout line, I looked up and noticed 3 other crew members just standing there talking..."

"Not many things here are a dollar anymore. More or less a Dollar General which this town has plenty of. Probably won’t last too long which is unfortunate."

"Their stock is inconsistent on certain things ,but other then that it's a solid store. Nice staff ,nice Management, hard workers. Fun place to shop ,love getting drinks and snacks from there."

"I need to preface by saying I love love Dollar Tree!! This by far is one of favorite stores to shop at. Anytime I travel whether it’s KC, NYC, Orlando, OKC I will stop and spend money. However, here in Pittsburg, it’s hard to shop for anything when the shelves are not stocked. It would be one thing if it was the first time…or the second, or the third…….and if it was only one shelf or so. But this is a recurring issue. I would say for about the last like 6-8 months I’ve gone in and about 40% of the store is empty. Today I talked out loud and said the shelves are always empty. Theresa responded letting me know this is a high volume store. No Theresa, Joplin is a high volume store, Kansas City , NYC is a high volume store. This is a lack of restocking and planning appropriately. All the stores I mentioned do not have this problem. Those shelves are always stocked by the way. I hate what this store has become because it used to be a great place to come. The staff are almost always very nice and helpful (Angelica and one other girl with dark hair that had dyed bangs were super sweet and nice). But I guess I’ll start shopping in Joplin or Dollar General because that seems to be the only way I’m going to be able to get the stuff I need."

"I understand I was shopping on Christmas Eve Eve (12/22/18). I have to say I was totally shocked to see the shape the store was in. It was in complete disarray! The shelves were empty on every isle. You could barely get up or down the aisles because of all of the merchandise from the shelves being on the floor. I don't blame the employees for that as there are a lot of people that let their children run free while they shop, to get into things without consequences, then never take responsibility for what their children did such as picking up what they drug off of the shelves or offering to pay for things their children may have damaged. I managed to find a few things I was wanting to purchase. Upon checkout the clerk was not cordial at all. I finally greeted her first by saying "Hello" and merely asking how her evening was going. She seemed put off that she was even at the register checking out my merchandise. I'm sure it has been an extremely busy holiday season. I'm sure they are probably under staffed. I'm sure they have probably been yelled at by a customer more than once in any given day. But with all of that taken into consideration it still is not an excuse to have a store that is so messy, and dirty with the shelves bare and to have unfriendly clerks. Let me say this. I have worked in retail for many, many years. I was the manager at a retail store in the Customer Service Department. So trust me when I say I have seen, and heard it all. I truly hope things will change for this store as this is not the first time of many times I have been here and things were pretty much the same as they were tonight. Soon I will decide to just not do business here anymore. As it is not worth the aggravation."
