Dollar Tree Starts Taking Coupons Sunday; Free Purchases May Ensue

Beginning Sunday, Dollar Tree stores nationwide will begin accepting manufacturer coupons.

Everything at the Dollar Tree is $1 or less already, so coupons for a dollar or more off can result in free items. 

Elk Grove has two Dollar Tree stores: . and .

Dollar Tree has performed well in the recession, according to Bloomberg: "Net sales increased 10.5 percent to $1.7 billion from $1.54 billion a year ago. Sales at stores open at least one year increased 4.5 percent, a key measurement of a retailer's health." 

Dollar Tree carries items like wrapping paper and party supplies, 14-ounce frozen chicken thighs and drumsticks, 18-ounce bags of frozen vegetables, half-dozen cartons of eggs, Halloween decorations, large birthday balloons, and a huge variety of everyday items and school supplies.

Here are a few printable coupons. 

"Dollar Tree's coupon policy will be posted in all stores on Sunday morning, and employees have been trained on how to accept them," said Vice President of Investor Relations Timothy Reid. 

Note: They will not accept coupons from other retailers; just coupons issued by the manufacturer. The coupon guidelines are below.
