This review was chosen algorithmically as the most valued customer feedback.

I had an experience the day before yesterday in martell california. My husband, myself, & 3 year old son went to the store to shop. we were shopping quietly, not bothering anyone. The store has several balloons all over the place, so my 3 year old son decided to hold one by the string, not harming it, just holding it, and he was with my husband at the time. A lady claiming to be the store manager by the name of TAMMY came over and grabbed my sons hand, yanked the a balloon out of his hand and told him he can't hold a balloon, he has to put it back! My husband started to react right away and told her she has no right to talk or touch our son. she continued to argue with my husband while i stood in complete shock. I urge everyone in the jackson, martell, sutter creek, California area not to shop at the martell dollar tree!

Store manager has a nasty attitude besides the fact she's always leaving or is never there. She needs an attitude adjustment. She's very rude and always roll her eyes

The one cashier allowed the line to go half way down the aisle while the other employees stood around talking. Where was management? This is a habit for this store on Saturday afternoon. It is rare to see more than one person working the floor. The one person is cashiering. This happened at the store located 3355 yarbrough in el paso texas.

Your store at 1562 Fulton St. Brooklyn New York is unacceptable if the head of this corporation deem what's on this video acceptable I will be spending my money else where and prompt others to do the same. Please attend to this matter asap, thank you.

I purchased items from the Cedar Springs store, and presented a roll of quarters as payment. The woman weighed it, and claimed I had only $8.50 in it. I took it home, and weighed it, and it was a half of a pound. What it should weigh. Not going in there again.

Apparently, a scale is more accurate, than unrolling a roll of quarters, and actually counting them!

This is the worst dollar tree store I've ever been to. They always only have one register open. I guess that's why the customer service is so bad. You never see a Manager. If you look at the store reviews everyone has the same complaint. That's a reflection on Management.

There's a lesbian that works in the store which is very aggressive with me. I've asked her to back off but the name calling flirty actions and requests for hugs continue. I reported her to management today. I'm not even comfortable going into the store anymore. This is happening at the dollar tree store on Pontchartrain Dr in Slidell la.

Manager Christine in Barnesville, Ga is the rudest, nastiest manager .the store is beautiful and the cashiers are so friendly. She is rude to the customers and the cashiers. You should look into the store management and make a change or more employees will quit and store will decline in customers.

I was at your store on Pat Booker, Universal City, TX. At the store was without air conditioning and was told it's been off and on for almost 3 weeks. Your employees working in that heat with one single fan blowing on them to keep them cool in this 100+ degree temperatures we have been having is ridiculous. Hope the situation can be rectified soon

Your cashier at your Jacksonville store on St Augustine Rd and University
Blvd is ripping you off. She saw I had two dollar bills in my hand and some change. She rang up one item and sweetly said that will 2.14. Cash register opened and total on register screen read 1.07. If she does that a couple times an hour, that's a nice pay raise.

On Sunday July 15 the store hours posted was supposed to be 9:00 am to 9:00 pm. The store employees were waiting outside. This is ridiculous. At one point 15 customers were waiting. The Store is located at 3754 S. High St Columbus Ohio 43207. This is poor customer service.

I was shopping today when I overheard two female employees (saw one name badge as I walked by. Laura) talking about another employee there. They were speaking in Spanish thinking no one would understand them . Well I'm fluent in Spanish and am applaud on their behavoir. Never had I heard grown women speak so ugly about another employee like that.

also did she even ask if they were buying it because she reacted in a stupid manner- they may have been thinking of buying it. I guess we should all get our hands hit for touching anything in the store- according to you

Dollar tree should have customer policy. Never leave your child unattended ...over the past system you should be allowed to say there is an unattended child on isle 4 . Your child will be waiting at front with our staff for your child's safety ...have dollar tree customers ever Flippen heard of kidnapping pedafiles, bad people, people that just want a kid. Lol I would never pick one from a dollar tree cause them is bad kids anyways. Just saying.

This is the common type of disregard most dollar tree customers show. Never seen so much merchandise damaged out due to careless parents. And somehow it will be the staffs fault. What happened to morals, if your kid let go 50 balloons you being a decent human should pay for them. Why should the store suck up the cost of your bad parenting.

Yeah, we have to keep an eye on the balloons so they don't get sucked up into the vents in the ceiling, its REALLY annoying, and I love how this lady had to try to justify her family by completely exaggerating the story so that she doesn't look like she's wrong, this is how innocent, caring people [like Tammy] get in trouble for just doing their jobs and people like that anger me to no end. If you're really going to take the time to complain make sure that its for something that the employees did wrong, not you, your obnoxious husband and your crazy balloon obsessed child!

Well Henry...in most countries, even the one's where you are allowed to beat your wife, it's still not ok to use bad language towards any person.

And this is another instance as to why it should be illegal to give out employee names. Apparently everyone knows who this employee is and she has a lot of supporters (yay!) but you posting her name shows how disrespectful you are Kim.

I have to believe that if this employee actually did this, you would have filed a police report just like everybody else. If you felt that she was such a threat to children that is. If the case were true she would then have to undergo screening and get a clrearance to work where she may encounter any children.

And, it sounds like your husband should have undergone this clearance process because anyone using profanity in front of a child would not have passed and for example, would never be allowed to adopt a child. I guess you are lucky the government has yet to pass out clearances to people who are allowed to breed.
