A photo of a Dollar Tree store, with the meme caption “A Buck And A Fuck”

Meme explanation: Dollar Tree products are no longer a dollar, they’re a minimum of $1.25, and up.

    The freezer section had a $1 fridge, a $2 fridge, a $4 fridge and a $5 fridge.

    Dunno where $3 was and didn’t realize because I thought I saw my favorite ice cream for a buck but it was really $5 and overpriced.

    While everyone has been fucking us over on inflation (my rent went up $500 in one year), I’ll actually give them this one. Things have been $1 there for literally decades. Raising it to $1.25 really is actually a more reasonable change for that long of a time period to begin with.

    And no, it’s not “$1.25 and up”. It’s $1.25 and under. You’re thinking of places like Dollar General where they lied about being a $1 store to begin with and are actually way more expensive than that. Dollar General is not and was notna true dollar store.

    Don’t get me wrong. Dollar Tree isn’t exactly a wholesome company. But of all the things happening recently it’s actually a more reasonable change.
