Record Inflation Forces Dollar Store to Raise Prices

Inflation has reached its highest point in three decades, and it’s beginning to hurt. This hidden tax on middle and low-income families has made things so tight that Dollar Tree has announced it can no longer just sell stuff for one dollar.

 

[CEO Michael] Witynski said this week that Dollar Tree is a “test-and-learn” company, and they’ll be watching how customers react.

The company had already begun testing higher prices at several hundred of its nearly 8,000 locations in a section of the store called “Dollar Tree Plus” with items that can go for as much as $5. Items that can go for $1.25 to $1.50 will soon be found in the mix at some locations amid the typical assortment of $1 products.

 

And it’s not just Dollar Tree. The price of gas, food, just about everything has been impacted under the muddled gaze of Borderless Taliban Joe Biden, and his band of left-wing whoever is actually running things in the White House.

They are also working hard to add a few trillion more to the national debt to pay off their pals – a plan that will raise taxes on top of the shadow taxes of inflation and rising energy costs. None of which will make America any of those things on that lawn signed that begins ‘In My America.’

In your America, gas doubles in price because they want to price you out of being mobile or comfortable. Healthy food is too expensive, so you have to buy junk. Borders don’t exist, and illegals don’t need a vaccine passport. Laws are for little people. The government can and will force medical procedures on you even if you don’t want or need them…

And the dollar store can no longer afford to sell everything for a dollar.
