The Dollar Tree
The Dollar Tree is a rare tree found in
- Bill Gates' backyard
- The White House
- Kentuckistan
- Sims 2
It will grow you FREE money. On occasion, it will grow crappy merchandise such as plastic food. The seeds will be found in certain parts of Ireland. How do you think leprechauns get so many pots of gold? Yeah... Dollar Trees.
It is also our administration's clever solution to the 850 billion dollar deficit. It was patented by George Dubya Bush, along with his brilliant "boomerang grenade" that helped win the war in Iraq, "powdered water", the newest improvement to those tasty treats, the MREs, and the "submarine screen door", now installed in all US military submarines, allowing fresh air to flow in and visibility, but protecting you from mosquitoes and violent chipmunks.
Dollar Tree Stores, Inc. (NASDAQ: DLTR) is an American chain of retail stores headquartered in Chesapeake, Virginia. Every item sold in the stores is offered for either $1.00 or less, thus making it a true dollar store.
Dollar Tree competes in the dollar store and low-end retail markets with the national chains Family Dollar, Big Lots and Dollar General together with regional chains such as 99 Cents Only Stores, Fred's and many independent dollar stores nationwide.
Dollar Tree has recently expanded into the grocery business further with the addition of frozen foods and dairy at some stores. Products include milk, punch, pizza, ice cream, frozen dinners and pre-made baked goods.
As of February 3, 2007, Dollar Tree operates 3,219 stores in the 48 contiguous states.[1]
Dollar Tree traces its history back to 1953 when company founder K.R. Perry opened a Ben Franklin store. Along with Doug Perry, Macon Brock and Ray Compton, he eventually turned the store into K&K 5&10, a five and dime. A number of additional K&K stores were opened. By the 1970s and 1980s, the chain came to concentrate on toys.
In 1986, the company opened its first Dollar Tree store in Dalton, Georgia. By 1991, the company decided to focus exclusively on the Dollar Tree line and sold the K&K stores to KB Toys. The company came to be known as Dollar Tree Stores, and by 1995 was traded on NASDAQ.
Since that time the company has focused on expanding its presence nationwide. In 1996, Dollar Tree bought the Dollar Bill$ chain, which were predominantly in Illinois and Missouri (while the stores retained their original names, they were stocked with Dollar Tree items). In 1999, Dollar Tree merged with the Only $One stores based in New York state. In 2001, Dollar Tree acquired Dollar Express, with 136 stores in six Mid-Atlantic states. In 2003, Dollar Tree bought Greenbacks All-A-Dollar stores. In 2006, Dollar Tree bought Deal$ stores (previously owned by Save-A-Lot). The Company's stores operate under the names of Dollar Tree, Deal$, Dollar Bills and Dollar Express.
