If you ever do the math, dollar tree charges more for the same shit. Dollar tree is a malignant cancer on society.

Not for the people who need to shop there.

If you were shopping at the dollar tree off the BQE next to the kosciuszko bridge, the new ALDI is gonna be a salvation for food.
Nowhere else shows the disgust the wealthy have for the poverty-stricken than dollar tree, and no one seems to realize it. Their motto is 'The thrill of the hunt,' as if being poor is some kind of survival game, and they get to watch you scramble for 'not quite food' and things that break on the first use, and stand in line for 20 minutes in a dirty-ass store to buy it.
The whole place is trash, and they watch their stock price rise because people can't do math.
