Dollar Tree

"Terrible experience! I was only looking for big gallon jugs of water and didn't see any in the store, so I peeked in the backroom(yes, I know I shouldn't have done that, but I dislike bothering workers when they seem busy.) The manager, her name tag said Beatrice, started yelling at me to stay out of the backroom. I explained I just wanted the gallon jugs of water, two big 6-packs of them, but she wasn't having any of it and proceeded to tell me off until I left. I eventually found a kind employee name Tori and asked her if she could please help me and she was very quick to oblige. I brought my cart and was willing to help carry, but she insisted on doing it herself and used my cart to hold the door open to make it easier. As she's carrying jugs from the backroom to my cart, the same manager comes over and gets all mad that I'm at the door again, before I can say anything, Tori quickly explains that she is helping me shop. The manager leaves and I soon have my water. As I am shopping, I hear Tori be called for over the loudspeaker to go to the office and the next time i see her, she's in tears. Is the really how we should be treating the good workers? I felt terrible for her and blame myself for whatever trouble she got in. I will not be returning to this store for the foreseeable future. We need more workers like Tori and less workers like Beatrice. I'd report the harassment if I were her."

"My experience in this dingy store, very unorganized and messy. The old lady cashier is rude and tired, I greeted her very respectfully and she then proceeded to be rude and nasty. Will never return…"

"This is the WORST store in Connecticut and that’s facts! Every time I go there is a line down the isles. I have never waited that long in line besides at Yankee Stadium. The usual wait is at least 15 minutes at most 30 minutes which I had to wait at my most recent visit to Dollar Tree in Hamden plaza. They do not have enough employees probably because of the minimum wage pay. Major Corporations make a lot of money but yet the people doing the jobs are paid nothing!!"

"Dollar Tree is a great place to find a good bargain on many different types of merchandise, and this branch is no exception! There are so many unique things you'll find here! The store is quiet and spacious, and the staff are polite & courteous. I noticed that there are sometimes boxes, the occasional hand truck, and some merchandise scattered on the floor or around the shelving. This is a common thing I have seen across many Dollar Tree branches, but here I couldn't find a part of the store that was unnavigable despite floor clutter. Overall, it's a great store with some amazing finds that get rotated out regularly! You'll definitely have many opportunities to save money here!"
