Dollar Tree Moves Closer to Opening in Wheaton

Back in July we let you know that Dollar Tree is coming to 2321 University Blvd W in Wheaton, the former site of CVS (next to Max’s, which closed in July). CVS closed this location back in December 2019.  Neighboring businesses let us know that the opening is likely coming very soon and a peek inside shows that construction is nearly complete with the store currently looking like it only needs to be stocked before being ready to open (photos below).

Dollar Tree has undergone several big changes over the past year.  In January 2021, the company raised the price of all items in its stores from $1 to $1.25.  At the time, Dollar Tree said the higher prices were not a result of inflation, but rather to allow the company to offer a wider range of merchandise. In April the chain added “Dollar Tree Plus” sections to area stores, with items priced $3 and $5.  The higher priced items include cookware, headphones, chargers, and t-shirts (Baby Yoda, Lilo & Stich, etc.)  similar to those found at FiveBelow.
