From household items and toys to snacks and hygiene products, Dollar Tree was a go to store that made living on low wages easier.

Now, this has changed as the prices at Dollar Tree have been synonymous with the rest of the world as inflation has taken a toll on everyone. Dollar Tree is no longer a legit dollar store as everything in the store now cost $1.25 instead of just $1.
