Dollar Tree — Local services in Aberdeen

Full disclosure I did show up five minutes before closing (very uncommon of me but I NEEDED batteries) I walk in at 9:55 P.M. and the cashier greets me by saying, “hey we’re trying to close” (again it’s 9:55 P.M.) and I said OK I understand is it okay if I can please get a pack of batteries. (When he said they were trying to close I figured they meant I wasn’t supposed to start shopping around and grabbing a bunch of thing which is understandable five minutes before closing but I wanted just one item) the batteries were less than 2 feet away from me. Not even one second after I finished asking my question about getting the batteries I hear a lady behind him snap with as much attitude as she could muster up and say “No we are trying to close”. I couldn’t help my self. I had to check my phone because I knew it wasn’t after 10 P.M. yet so I then try to inform her that it is 9:57 P.M. it is still three minutes before it says they close on google but before I can even say, “it’s only” she was already walking away as rudely as possible. I swore I had more batteries this afternoon but I was wrong and I raced out of my house as fast as I could to try and get the batteries because my kids have a hard time falling asleep without their white noise machine (that’s what the batteries where for) and I understand it’s my fault for not planning ahead but I still made it there five minutes before it says they close on google. I’m understanding especially when it comes to retail but the way those employees decided to handle the situation was very unprofessional and very unkind. I didn’t realize how much of a burden a signal pack a batteries would be. And I definitely learned my lesson, If a person is going to show up to the dollar tree Close to closing they better not expect to be treated with respect or even regular civilized kindness. I can’t even imagine walking into any other store that would turn down a customer during regular business hours. I feel sorry for the next person that has to go through that kind of disrespect at this...

Usually the cashier's are super friendly. But the lines are long. Need more cashier's.

So, yesterday we went there. Upon checking out the cashier was the most rude and unkept individual I've ever seen anywhere in business! He didn't have on his name tag so I can't say who it was but I can discribe him.... Very large man, wearing a face shield, unwashed and uncombed matted up hair and greasy. When it was our turn to check out, he didn't even look at us or say hello. My husband said hello and asked "How are you today?" The cashier didn't even smile, look at him or respond. So my husband said, "What? No hello today?" Still nothing.... So I moved over and asked "How are you doing today?" Nothin..... I thought maybe he was hard of hearing so my husband said loudly, "Having a bad day? No greeting?" The guy said, "Leave me alone."

Needless to say, this cashier needs to be taught personal hygiene and customer service skills. I've worked in customer service my whole life. Never would I be allowed to keep my job if I showed up for work looking like this guy and I'd be fired for sure if I had such poor people skills. We...

March 2023. I love shopping here and usually go in for a few things and leave with 3 or 4 bagfuls!! They have so many new products I love to see everything they offer. The latest new products were metal mesh sheets about 10 or 12 in square. They have connectors so you can make cubes or whatever. They also had backboard squares made of plastic you can combine for holding a variety of things. Also there are MANY new food products to check out. The price is now $1.25 or more instead of a dollar, but the selection and quality is much better as well. I DEFINITELY recommend d the Aberdeen dollar store and there's a new one by the Walmart and ROSS off the main road. You'll find so many things at a...
