Why You Should Never Buy Kraft Mac & Cheese From Dollar Tree

According to MarketWatch, it seems that Dollar Tree’s dollar status isn’t quite as reliable as it used to be. While most of the store’s inventory was once only one dollar now costs $1.25 due to the store’s “transformation plan” of offering a wider range of items. In other words, Dollar Tree is no longer selling most of its merchandise for one dollar.

We know this may be hard to believe, but you’re actually spending more money buying one package of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese at Dollar Tree than at most other grocery stores. According to Yahoo, a 7.25-ounce box of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese costs $1.25 at Dollar Tree but a respective $1 at Walmart. This may not seem like a big difference to you, but when considering buying in bulk and multiple boxes at a time, then that 25 cents difference does add up quite a bit.
