Spending Dollars

Money may not grow on trees, but that didn't stop Dollar Tree from spending a few bucks to upgrade its in-plant.

The whole idea of going to a Dollar Tree store is to save money. But sometimes you have to spend a few dollars now to save money down the road.

With that in mind, Dollar Tree recently spent more than $500,000 to completely upgrade its 11-employee in-house graphics department, based in Chesapeake, Va.
