I wonder if Dollar Tree, Dollar Store and Dollar General will change their names?

Don't you just love Biden and all this inflation?

Once it goes up, it will stay up.



I shop there occasionally and find some good things for 1 buck. During this inflation time , I will most likely go there more often. Good place to stock up on various items.

With Biden in office and if this multi Trillion bill is passed they will have to change their name to the $2 Tree.

Even with these modest increases it's still a great value. I always turned my nose up to dollar stores but went into the Dollar Tree by me recently and was very surprised. Sure, some of the stuff is super sketchy (it would have to be a zombie apocalypse for me to eat a dollar store steak) but a lot of other stuff, particularly their seasonal items, are surprisingly good quality for the price.

When Biden gets done slamming a wrecking ball through the economy, it will be the $100 tree. Crazy times, brought to you by crazy democrats.

One of their execs spoke at a university my Godson attended for his MBA under 6 years ago, and said Tree was committed to $1 max.

UGH. Thanks (sar), Biden.

Not with open borders (another gift from democrats)... Also expect more whining and complaining from employers saying they can't find American workers to hire, which necessitates more h1b visas and such.


Most fast food places are paying $15/hr now though. That's about as good of a career one can expect in Biden's America.

Still some deals…sure, but who wants to spend more when you’re already spending more on everything else? A little more here and there adds up to a good chunk of money.
