Dollar Tree's Family Dollar closures
On one hand, Dollar Tree bought Family Dollar in 2015, but the brand has struggled due to various issues such as rat infestations and public safety concerns.
On the other, budget-conscious shoppers now have more shopping options with the rise of online shopping and low-cost supermarkets like Aldi and Trader Joe's.
How to make the most of liquidation sales
- Check the prices: Use price comparison apps to ensure you're getting the best deal.
- Check the sell-by dates: Be cautious of product freshness during liquidation sales.
- Plan your shopping: Make a list of items you need to avoid impulsive purchases.
- Use up any gift cards: Spend any remaining Family Dollar gift cards before the closure.
Bottom line: The closure of Family Dollar stores could significantly impact local communities with both drawbacks and potential benefits for consumers seeking bargains.
