In a Sea of Discount Retailers, New Dollar Tree Store Opening Soon in Mays Landing, NJ
Yet another dollar store is opening soon in Atlantic County, this time in a bit of an unlikely spot.
Where? On the property of a decades-old shopping mall (but not actually in the mall).
Popping Up Everywhere
Within the past few weeks, we got a look at a new Dollar Tree store opening soon on Tilton Road in Northfield — which is near Dollar Tree off of the old Cardiff Circle in EHT — and now another Dollar Tree is opening about ten minutes away.
Interestingly enough, to get to that new Dollar Tree, you'll have to pass another Dollar Tree in Egg Harbor Township.
One step further, this new Dollar Tree is practically next to an existing Dollar Tree, however, it is not yet known if two stores will remain open or the new one will replace the existing.
Newest Store
The new(est) Dollar Tree coming to Atlantic County will be located behind Hamilton Mall in Mays Landing in what is often called the "convenience center," a small strip of stores between the old race track and the former Sears store, where Bob's Furniture and Planet Fitness are located.
The old storefront was formerly home to Flyers Academy Gymnastics, which left some time ago.
Interesting Dollar Tree Facts
- The company's first store opened in 1953; the "Dollar Tree" name debuted in 1989

The store is obviously several weeks away from opening
