These are good stores, particularly Dollar Tree.

I LOVE Dollar Tree, I just don’t tell anyone.

These are probably the 390 stores with the largest numbers of armed robberies in recent years.

Dollar Tree is the place to go for greeting cards and for reading glasses. Pretty good reading glasses for $1 per pair.

Family Dollar is a bit overpriced for everything. It is more like shopping at a 7-11.

Dollar General is a good store, sort of positioning itself halfway between Dollar Tree and Family Dollar.

Yeah, but they are often too close together.

Yup.

Dollar Tree still has reading glasses (that I use) for one dollar while everywhere else they're six dollars or more.

My Dollar Trees are great stores for inexpensive household items from Batteries to Cleaners, trading cards to candy bars, and Halloween decorations.

Family Dollar was a cheap imitation and there was no reason for it.

I love Dollar Tree, though the one closest to me is not well-managed.

In the small town where I live, we have a small grocery store (high prices but I try to shop there occasionally just to help keep them open), a small local drugstore (way too high priced), a convenience store/gas station (I’ll get gas there from time to time but never go inside as you come out smelling like a fried burrito) and a Family Dollar.

I go to Family Dollar on a pretty regular basis, mostly to do my part in keeping them open.

I have to drive 15 miles to get to Wal-Mart, Dollar Tree, or a Dollar General. The Dollar General which is most convenient is in poor repair, dirty, and extremely cluttered.

I like the dollar stores, myself. I loved the Dime Store (I don’t know what it’s actual name was) when I was a child and that seems to have carried over.
