Dollar Tree Will Raise Prices Up to $7 in Stores
by Anthony Scott Mar. 27, 2024 11:00 am

Discount chain Dollar Tree has announced it will raise its price cap to $7 for some store items.

During a recent fourth-quarter earnings call, CEO of Dollar Tree Rick Dreiling shared, “This year, across 3,000 stores, we expect to expand our multi-price assortment by over 300 items at price points ranging from $1.50 to $7.”

Due to the ongoing inflation under the Biden administration, Dollar Tree was previously forced to raise their prices from $1 to $1.25 in 2021.

The $7 price cap will be implemented in the fourth quarter, and at the beginning of June, a $5 price cap will be temporarily set.

Dollar Tree’s announcement comes just weeks after the discount chain announced it would close up to 1,000 stores of its sister chain, Family Dollar.

Seven Dollar Tree just doesn't have the same ring to it.

So they've gone from $1 - $7???  Then it is not worth stepping inside.

I normally buy their plastic food storage containers but the other day, I went into Target and for the same price I found food storage containers for the same price and the quality was better.

They will disappear.  I buy greeting cards, gift wrap and gift bags.  If they raise the price to $7 -- I'll go to Hallmark and purchase those items; much better quality, and as a Hallmark member I'll rack up points and get $$ off on other Hallmark products.

I never really got the whole dollar store thing because when you do some quick calculating you quickly figure out you are paying more per ounce on almost every small portion item they sell. Also dollar stores are like Harbor Freight, Ok if you just need some cheap stuff to get by.

Here in Californication there are things to really get upset about with the new fast food minimum wage, took my wife to a Dr appt. and we decided to get a couple of burgers at In-N-Out and the price for a hamburger jumped up over a $1  9999hair out0000 That's friggin insane. I haven't been a regular visitor to any fast food restaurant since I quit Mickey D's over 25 years ago but In-N-Out was about it....or they used to be. Congrats Californication democrats for putting even more people out of work.
