A retail chain running about nine thousand U.S. stores plus hundreds in Canada, Dollar Tree stocks household goods, food, health items, seasonal decor, and party supplies at low prices, with same-day delivery via Instacart and Uber Eats. The chain began in 1986, when former toy-store executives Macon Brock, Doug Perry, and Ray Compton opened their first "Only $1.00" stores in Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee. It took the Dollar Tree name in 1993 — partly to keep future pricing flexible — and the ever-changing shelves are often described as a "treasure hunt."
