My Dollar Tree couponing experiment

I didn't find everything on my list, but at least I did find some deals. I bought $18 worth of merchandise and paid $7.70+ tax. It is a little slow because the cashier has to manually enter each coupon. Dollar Tree does not carry very many name brand items, so I'm wondering why they decided to accept coupons.  I decided to shop at a bigger Dollar Tree with the refrigerated/frozen section. I do think these stores keep a better stock of items we can use coupons on.

Dollar Tree 9/2
