What are some tips for shopping at Dollar Tree?

If you want to be a successful shopper, you can’t just go in and browse blindly. You should always know what to expect and have a strategy that allows you to stock up on the items that give you the most value for your buck. Here are some tips for saving money on your next Dollar Tree visit:

Browse the online store

The majority of products offered on the Dollar Tree store website are bulk offerings, so focus on the things you really want to stock up on. Don’t worry though, you’ll still be able to browse a small selection of items that are sold by individual units. 

Know the coupon policy

There’s no such thing as traditional Dollar Tree coupons, but they do have weekly offers, and you can still use manufacturer’s coupons when shopping in their stores, although you can't use them online. When you’re shopping online, you’re likely to find bulk deals you wouldn’t otherwise get in stores, so the opportunity for extra discounts generally evens out.

Goodie bags galore

If you’re planning a kid’s birthday, things like Dollar Tree Pokémon cards are perfect to add to any goodie bag, and they’re sold at a fraction of the price when compared to retailers like Target and Walmart! Dollar tree candy is also great to buy in bulk for Halloween or birthday parties. Just make sure you check the expiration date before giving anything away!

Understand the return policy

Before making any online purchases, you should be familiar with the Dollar Tree return policy. If you get something delivered and notice that it’s expired or something is amiss, you’ll want to know what your options are.

When you shop online at Dollar Tree, all sales are final—except if your items arrive damaged or incomplete. Their website doesn’t disclose any policy regarding expiration dates, but there’s a good chance that might be considered a “damaged” item.

For in-store purchases, you can’t refund items for the original payment method, but you are free to exchange any unopened items, as long as you can present a receipt.

Conclusion

At the end of the day, bargain shopping is meant to be an enjoyable experience, not something that feels daunting. When you’re aware of the Dollar Tree policies and know what to expect when you shop both in-store and online, you can feel more confident in your purchases and always feel prepared.

Regardless of what you’re shopping for, Dollar Tree always has something in stock for everyone. Whether you need party supplies, household items, seasonal décor, or something else, it’s always worth it to visit their online store and check out what they have to offer. Don’t forget to subscribe to Mulberry Unlimited so you can get coverage for all your purchases under the same product protection plan!
