Dollar Store situation

So Ive been excited to go to the dollar store all day to load up. (this would be my first time)

I get there, I search the correct aisle mutlipe times. Nothing. I search the whole store and check behind the registers. Nothing.

I ask the girl at the register. She goes yeah we have them here, Im like great. They are out at her register and just unloaded the truck (I immediately think that you girls must of hit the stores b/c I dont think that non lif girls know dollar store brand is good). Anyway, point is, 4 people had to be called. She ends up giving me 1 test. Chat Icon I swallow my dignity and say, can i have 12 more please. She nicely laughs, goes through the other workers and says, she needs 12 more. And then nicely tells me she will double the bag.

I didnt have the guts to ask where the he l l the opks where. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: Dollar Store situation

I think all of the TTCers have been clearing the shelves at my dollar tree! I went into the aisle - NOTHING not even 1 lonely one.

Went to all of the registers and thankfully saw 5. I grabbed em up quick!
No OPT to be seen at all.

Asking the young girls behind the register is beyond agitating.
