WITH Christmas quickly approaching, shoppers across the country are preparing their homes with festive decor.
Dollar Tree has tons of Christmas decorations at a fraction of the cost.
In fact, the discount retailer is selling a wreath that looks just like one from Pottery Barn.
The Decorative Christmas Wreath is just $5 each and come in three different styles.
Dollar Tree bosses said: “A tasteful wreath makes an elegant addition to any style of decor. These wreaths are adorable, affordable, and assorted among three beautiful styles.
“They are a great way to welcome guests and help make the season BERRY and bright without breaking the bank.”
Alternatively, the Faux Lit Mixed Berries Wreath from Pottery Barn will set you back $69.
The main difference between the wreaths is that the Pottery Barn version comes with lights.
However, you could easily add in some battery powered string lights, which you can buy for as little as $4 on Amazon if you don’t have any to hand.
The festive wreaths aren’t the only reason to get down to Dollar Tree before Christmas though.
FESTIVE BUYS
The budget-friendly store left Christmas fans in awe when they spotted an LED Lighted Ceramic Tree.
The cute ornament is from the Dollar Tree Plus section where customers see items in the $3 and $5 price range.
Kim Nuzzolo (@kimnuzzolo) first revealed the find on a recent Dollar Tree run and posted a TikTok saying its “vintage look” is the cutest ever.
Nuzzolo shared the tree was $5 and urged shoppers to run to their local store to scoop one up before it’s too late.
The tree measures 4.9 x 8.7 x 4.9 inches and is available in three colors: white, green, and gold.
It’s powered by 2 AAA batteries and does not come with the tree.
Dollar Tree pricing
Despite the name of the store, Dollar Tree recently added items that cost more than $1 to its inventory.
Most items at the store cost no more than $1.25, but items in the Dollar Tree Plus section cost up to $5.
Dollar Tree introduced Plus aisles to 100 locations in 2019 as part of an effort to diversify its products.
By 2022, Dollar Tree had added the items to over 1,500 locations.
“We believe testing additional price points above $1 for Dollar Tree products will enable us over time to expand our assortments, introduce new products and meet more of our customers’ everyday needs,” president and CEO Michael Witynski said in a statement.
“Our brand promise is that customers get great value for what they spend at Dollar Tree. We will continue to be fiercely protective of that promise, regardless of the price point.”
DOLLAR TREE CHANGES
Dollar Tree Plus is a section with in all of its 5,000 locations that provide shoppers with deals at the $3 and $5 price points.
Last year, Dollar Tree announced it would add frozen foods, bread, and other merchandise for $3, $4, and $5.
Shortly after, the company revealed the maximum price of any product at Dollar Tree would be increased to $7.
The CEO explained that the price structure would allow stores to have an “expanded assortment” of products.
However, most merchandise will still cost the entry-level price of $1.25.
In addition to a newer price model, the discount retailer has combined spaces with sister brand Family Dollar.
