Dollar Tree was founded in 1986 by Macon Brock, Doug Perry, and Ray Compton. They started with a chain of five stores called "Only $1.00," which was the original name for the company that would later become Dollar Tree. This initial concept of selling everything for a single, low price proved successful and eventually grew into the nationwide retail giant we know today.

Dollar Tree Plus Coffee?

Pretty much every town in New Jersey now has a Dollar Tree location, and in some of the larger municipalities, they may even have more than one.

I know this article is a bit "tongue in cheek," but I can't remember a Dollar Tree basically in the same building as a coffee shop. This location is in Ocean County, in Little Egg Harbor, and although I have not confirmed it, the popular rumor is that a Dunkin' will go into the building.

As I said, the "popular rumor" is that this new storefront is for a new Dunkin'. The Top coffee chain brands in the U.S. are:

  • Starbucks: It's impossible to talk about coffee in America without mentioning Starbucks.
  • Dunkin': Known for being a quick and affordable option, Dunkin' has a strong and dedicated fan base.
  • Dutch Bros Coffee: This is a rapidly growing chain, particularly in the western and southern U.S.
