Exterior of a Dollar Tree
As Dollar Tree starts to offer more-expensive items, some shoppers say they'd rather shop at other stores such as Walmart.
  • Dollar Tree customers say they'll shop at Walmart and elsewhere as the store adds more expensive items.
  • The retailer said in March that some items would cost up to $7. 
  • Despite some higher-income shoppers, many dollar-store customers are still on a tight budget.

Dollar Tree is adding items with prices as high as $7, causing customers to question whether shopping at the dollar store is even worth it anymore.
