Dollar Tree marks discontinued items down to $0.01 in corporate “penny” events. Unlike Dollar General, Dollar Tree penny pricing is nationwide — when an item pennies, it pennies at every store at once. These are clearance pulls, not a sale: stores are told to remove the items from shelves, so whether your local store still has one is luck of the draw. The list below shows items that recently pennied, newest first, refreshed a few times a week.
How Dollar Tree penny shopping works
- Pricing is national — every item below rings up $0.01 chainwide. The catch is finding one still on the shelf.
- Check shelves, clearance sections and back endcaps — stores are supposed to pull penny items, but many get missed.
- Ring it up at self-checkout or the register: if it scans $0.01, it’s a penny item. Don’t ask staff to price-check — they may pull it.

Full guide: how Dollar Tree penny items work
- What a penny event is. When Dollar Tree discontinues an item, corporate drops its price to $0.01 nationwide — typically activating on Mondays. These were regular $1.25–$5 items the day before.
- The list is national. Unlike Dollar General, there’s no store-by-store variation in pricing — every item below is $0.01 at every Dollar Tree. What varies is whether your store has already pulled it from the shelf.
- Bring the SKU. Most penny items vanish from the website, so save the SKU/UPC from this list to match items in store — names on the shelf tag can differ from the internal name we list.
- Verify at the register or self-checkout. Dollar Tree has no shelf-price scanner app — the only reliable check is scanning it at checkout. If it rings up $0.01, it’s a penny item.
- Don’t ask employees to price-check. Penny items are flagged for removal; asking gives staff a chance to pull it before you can buy. Some stores may decline penny sales at their discretion — that’s the trade-off with penny shopping.
Availability is not guaranteed at any location. Penny lists are clearance pulls — an item may already be gone from your store even though the penny price is national. Happy hunting.
