Texas, Y’all Ready for a $7 Dollar Tree? Here’s the Lowdown!

Texas shoppers, hold onto your wallets! Dollar Tree is switchin’ things up, upgrading stores and raising prices on some items—some even hittin’ $7! And if that ain’t enough, they’re droppin’ Family Dollar like a bad habit, selling it off for $1 billion to focus on their main brand.

What’s the Damage for Texas?

Stores Gettin’ a Facelift (But Not for Free) – Some Texas Dollar Tree spots, especially old 99 Cents Only Stores, are gettin’ a serious glow-up. But with that comes higher prices.  More Dollar Trees Poppin’ Up – They’re fixin’ to open 300 new stores across the U.S. in 2025.

Family Dollar? Gone Like Yesterday’s News – Private equity firms Brigade Capital Management and Macellum Capital Management are takin’ over Family Dollar, leavin’ Dollar Tree to focus on its own game.

Why the Shake-Up?
Dollar Tree ain’t just doin’ this for fun—they’re strugglin’ to keep up with Walmart, Amazon, Shein, and Temu. Family Dollar was holdin’ ‘em back with product recalls and warehouse drama, so they’re finally cuttin’ ties.

Prices Still Climbin’?
Dollar Tree swears they’re tryin’ to keep things affordable, but tariffs on stuff from Mexico and Canada might push prices even higher. If y’all love those prayer candles from Mexico, don’t be shocked if they start costin’ more.
