Dollar Tree — Local services in Aston Township

Accused of Stealing. Racial profiling, I am not sure, but they were dead wrong and failed to apologize. Black and Brown folx BEWARE! If you have an exchange, you MUST bring your receipt, or who knows what will happen! As a classroom teacher, I typically begin my school year, stocking up at the dollar store. I visited the one at this location b/c it stays open later than others. Pacing myself, I decided to grab bins (for notebooks), socks, wash rags for my classroom, and deodorizing spray (I teach Middle School). I initially came to check out their picture frames just in case I wanted to make an exchange (I purchased six picture frames at another dollar tree nearby just minutes earlier). After collecting all the items mentioned above, and six different picture frames I liked better than the one I originally had, I gave my un-purchased items to my daughters so they could hold them for me while I grabbed the frames I wanted to exchange from the car. However, once I walked by their notebook section, I saw a clipboard, then a folder that matched the clipboard, then my daughter showed me a cup holder that matched the folder and clipboard, then, and then, and then. We were having a decent time finding other matching items , until someone who seemed like the store manager came to me and asked if I purchased my items. Confused, I said, "No", because I have yet to purchase all the items I had with me. The manager then says, "Well then why are you putting them in your bag?" I certainly was not placing items in my bag, and this verbal exchange ended with me showing them my receipt for ALL the items that were in the bag. However, after humiliating me in front of my children and accusing me of wrongdoing, there was NO APOLOGY. I am not sure what it was about my interaction with my daughters that made them think that I or we were stealing, for I/we have shopped at this same Dollar Tree, at this hour COUNTLESS times before (did I say I am a school teacher?). Was it my locked hair? The natural hair of my children? What was it? The only thing that was different this time was 1) the cashier, Lauren, who I think alerted the manager, and 2) the manager (I did not catch her name, but will tomorrow- (African-American, medium build, with her hair styled in two cornrows, and a few tattoos on her neck). At the time this interaction took place, I was so shocked and stunned that I allowed the manager to view my receipt and check my bag of picture frames. Instead, I should have immediately demanded they call the police. I don't think there will be a next time... this store has shown me what they think of me and my two children. Black and Brown folx BEWARE! If you have an exchange, you MUST bring your receipt, or who knows what will happen! I have contacted the Family Dollar Human Resources Contact Center to share my experience and will place a review on...

I rely on the Dollar Tree for so many of my household and crafting projects, as well as seasonal items and things for me kids. I know the inventory and layout like the back of my hand. This store can be a bit messy depending on the time of the week you get there, with unopened boxes down the aisles, but those are generally out of the way so I don't mind. I'm posting, however, because I got there tonight at 8:42, only to be told that they close at 8:45pm, even though the sign outside and the website says 9pm. I don't mind stores having early closing times, but having inaccurate information posted is a waste of my time. The man who asked me to leave was polite enough, but if you say you will be open to a certain time, then you should stand by it. I will have to come back to finish my shopping list another time. Closing 15 minutes early might not seem like a lot to some people, but it will take me a lot longer than that to find time for a shopping trip on another day. Please update your...
