Did you hear about the possibility of Dollar Tree raising prices?! I really hope this doesn’t end up affecting how much I love Dollar Tree!!
{Be sure to check out my lists of 25 Things to Buy at Dollar Tree and 5 Things You Should NOT Buy at Dollar Tree!}
Not everything will be $1 at Dollar Tree anymore!
Wait…what?! Isn’t that the whole point of Dollar Tree?
I was super disappointed to see that Dollar Tree recently announced they’re introducing multiple price points on some of their merchandise. These items will be called Dollar Tree Plus! multi-price point products.
It looks like for now, this will only be tested in select stores across the country to see how it goes. Have you noticed if this is being tested at your store yet?
Nothing is official quite yet, because depending on how consumers respond to the test, they may or may not keep this multi-pricing model.
Does that mean Dollar Tree is raising prices?
Well, not technically!
The good news is that during this testing phase, they will not raise prices on their current assortment of products that are already priced at $1.
(Though I’m skeptical that if the model passes the test phase, we may see a future increase in Dollar Tree prices as a result. I’m crossing my fingers that doesn’t happen, though!)
Why I love Dollar Tree so much
The main reason I love Dollar Tree so much is that I know I can go into the store and expect everything to be $1 or less! That’s the beauty of it!
I really hope this doesn’t affect the great $1 value items you can currently get at Dollar Tree.
I also wonder if I’ll eventually have to update my list of what NOT to buy at Dollar Tree. We’ll have to see!
What do you think? How do you feel about this potential change?
What are your thoughts on Dollar Tree raising prices? I’d love to hear in the comments!
