Lol It's one of the newer stores along with the one on 50th in West Des Moines... The selection is smaller than the one on 22nd St in West Des Moines, but it's also not near the sh!t show the 22nd St location is... The 86th St location is clean and organized comparatively speaking. Staff is always polite and the parking is pretty good. Getting out of the lot and back onto 86th or Douglas can be challenging depending on which way you want to turn, but there are a couple of frontage roads and nearby roads exiting at lights you can use which make it simpler. Like any Dollar Tree it would be nice if they wouldn't let the line at checkout get quite so long before calling in a 2nd checker to help.

This location has a better selection than 86th and 50th when items are in stock... I'm not sure if it's distribution issues or staffing issues but the shelves are consistently bare. It seems to have gotten worse since the pricing went to $1.25 and higher price points under the new model... The discount bread racks here though...that is a shining star for this location. Sara Lee and Ballpark as well as other name brands are often available for $1.25. A definite plus.

Pros: * Vast array of products... a little bit of everything…read morefor $1.25/ea. * Cheapest cleaning products anywhere, all will get the job done. * Quality of most kitchen utensils is decent. They won't last forever, but will get you through a year. * Plates, bowls, mugs & glasses are a great value with many style options & colors. Inventory changes periodically. * Decent selection of seasonal decorations & items. * Many beauty products are good (hair, skin & nails) & if you just need a quick nail polish, eye shadow, compact or lipstick, you'll find something acceptable that will do in a pinch. * Good quality & quantity of greeting cards. * Convenient location: Behind Wells Fargo, next to Goodwill & Fareway. * Nice staff: Always, always pleasant & helpful. Cons: * I don't eat processed food, whether canned or frozen, but check expiration dates carefully. Pardon my bluntness, but most food is "junk food" with no nutritional value. Most items don't look appetizing to me, but that might be bias as I don't eat junk food anyway. Comment: I just feel the need to write this as our world has changed & can be an inconvenience to everyone. To the review stating that the store closed 8-min early, at 8:52pm one evening & wouldn't allow her in, I understand both sides as a consumer & former store mngr of multiple, varying types of stores. My doors were often locked 15-min prior to closing as that's when robbery is more likely to occur, end of evening with full cash registers. We would assess customers if they tried to enter... sometimes we let them in, other times we did not. With safety in mind, especially today's smash & grab & you're on your own culture (police not offering much help to store employees), I'd never visit a store even 30-min prior to closing & if I were a mngr today, I'd be more concerned with the safety of my staff than offending a 8:52pm customer. In addition, this store is in a strip mall, set way back from the main road (you can't see it from the main road) & all nearby businesses & stores are closed late evenings. It's a little eerie. This customer aside, latecomers normally are strange, under the influence or have ulterior motives for visiting, in my experience as a mngr, especially if the staff is majority female or young. So, yep, if the door were locked for any reason (registers shut down early due to malfunctioning, which isn't uncommon or a previous encounter that evening with a strange shopper, which also isn't uncommon), at best I'd unlock the door to tell the customer we're closing in 8-min, if she knew exactly what she wanted & didn't need help, she could run in & quickly check out. If she seemed strange, I'd smile & wave, telling her we closed early, sorry for the inconvenience but come back tomorrow. Most folks don't shop late evenings, especially at Dollar Tree & stores like it... there are always heightened fears after then... sorry, but that's just fact. And, please remember 9pm shoppers, most employees have been there for 12+ hours, have another 30-min+ left to clean, cash out & get a deposit ready & the "I just need one item" shoppers often don't & now we're all closing late & the customer is inconveniencing multiple employees. A tip: If you need to shop late hours, for example, due to your late work schedule, call the store first & alert them that you're coming... depending on store, I guarantee, they may ask what you want & have it ready for you at the register when you arrive. We did it all the time & were happy to do so. Customers really appreciate it, especially in inclement weather. Some are just not doing their jobs, sure, but our world is different now with lax local laws. Please shop 30-min prior to closing in stores with late-night hours or give them a head's up that you're coming so everyone can be happy. Some will say the store should be open, if the hours are posted. I get it & you're right. But, owners don't care about the safety of their staff & don't pay them well which proves it... the mngr & employees know the environmental climate, so if a mngr feels it's best to close up early, s/he should. I always acquiesce to them, even as a shopper. Overall 5* out of 5.
