If you frequent Dollar Tree, be sure to leave these items out of your cart.

Dollar Tree is a tempting place for deals, but experts caution against buying ten items there.

Electronics like headphones and chargers have a short lifespan. Spray bottles and cleaning supply nozzles tend to break quickly. Utensils, batteries, and crayons are also of low quality. Plastic kitchen tools might be useful for one-time use but not for durability. Canned goods aren’t always cheaper at Dollar Tree. Hair and skin care products lack quality ingredients. Gum packaging can be deceiving, with smaller portions than they appear. To avoid disappointment, focus on quality items at other stores for electronics, utensils, batteries, crayons, kitchen tools, canned food, beauty products, and gum.
