Who doesn’t love a Dollar Tree? It’s easy to get lost in the aisles of endless deals and it’s not hard to find at least five things that you need during your trip to the discount store. But, while the store is perfect for getting items in a pinch, not all of those items come recommended and experts are advising shoppers to avoid putting the following ten items in your cart.
Electronics. If you are looking for quality electronic devices and tools, you’re better off going to Target or Best Buy because they are likely to have a very limited life. The average lifespan of headphones, chargers, and speakers purchased from the chain store is under a month.

Spray bottles. Sure, they do the trick if you only need them for five minutes but in most cases, these bottles break after a few spritzes.
Cleaning supplies with nozzles. Similar to the lifespan of the spray bottles, cleaning supply nozzles will break off in a matter of minutes.
Utensils. When we set out to purchase forks, knives, and spoons, we are typically hoping to find something that lasts more than a few weeks, which is why you should focus on stores that sell quality utensils. The Dollar Tree is not one of those stores.
Batteries. Batteries have become crazy expensive over the years, which has given us reason to shop for deals on the much-needed item, but you are better off paying a high price for them if you want them to last long.
