Dollarama
Reviews and Complaints

Amen agreed they do sell defective merchandise that do not work and yes they are scammers and yes they do treat their employees like [censored]!

USB memory stick does not work. Paid $3 and expected it to work because that is the average price for a 1GB USB. Many other items at this stors, though cheap, do their jobs around the household. But if you need a USB, buy it elsewhere.

Dollarama is the biggest scam in Canadian marketplace. They sell junk, don't take it back and make 100's of millions of dollars doing that. They should be ashamed of themselves.

Mine doesn't work either, ...rip off, ...just plastic junk.

3 dollar for a 1gb is the full normal price for a USB and you must expect a good product. This dollarama USB flash drive garbage is not worth more than 50 cents, it should be 2 for one dollar or at most two for $1.25 plus tax. Dollarama became very rich with all kinds of garbage scams that people ignored because it was less than a dollar for a item, but today to be scammed for 3 dollars for a small s hit it is a big deal, and government are crooks too because Dollarama collect tax for them after they, Dollarama scam people.

Don't buy the plastic garden edging. I bought 20 and didn't notice that they broke as the cashier put them in a bag till I got home. I spent $33 + on garbage ! The ones that didn't break when put in the bag, broke when I tried to gently put them in the ground even after softening the soil.
These should be better quality even for a dollar store. They are selling them for the same price as can tire. I only went to dollar store for more variety in colour. Sigh... And all of you that are saying items are only a dollar. Yes well some or those items are only a dollar at other places too. And a dollar is a dollar and when you spend $30 on the items and they are all crap well that's not just a dollar is it?!
I agree you get what you pay for but still they shouldn't break after you pay and before you leave the store.

This is a new complain regarding Dollarama in Hanover Ontario. Nothing to do with the product but here's what happened. I purchased $70. worth of product, for my office and for personal use. I paid and I left. It was fairly busy, but not overwhelming for the cashiers by any means. When I arrived at home, I discovered that a lportion of my purchase was missing. Obviously, I had not received the second bag. So, naturally I called the store to report the lost bag.

The person who answered the phone, said she did not have the bag. She passed me to the manager. The manager was rude and displayed such an attitude that I actually asked her if she thought I was lying. After several minutes of explanation, I could tell she was anxious for me to just hang up and forget about it.

I had to ask HER myself if she would take my number and name in case someone turned the bag in. I thought that she should have suggested this.

I said to her that the cashier may have accidentally given the bag to the next customer. She said that didn't happen although how she knew for certain I am not sure. I asked her if this happened a lot. She said "only once before and the customer found the bag in the trunk of her car." She said it with such vehemence, that I was sure she meant that I had left it in my car as well. I didn't expect a lot from her, but I frankly, she was abrupt and showed no interest in my problem at all.

I own a business of my own. If I treated my customers this way, I would be unemployed. I didn't expect her to give me the $30. of lost items, but she might have at least offered to look under the cash counter. I will never shop at Dollarama again. A blessing in disguise, perhaps. Janice Macdonald

firstly, not all dollarama stores put out bad items or do they know that some items are going to be defective. Dollarama has a recall policy and head office tells them to take the poorly product off the shelves. It is not always the stores issue, Customers come into the dollarama and rip packaging open, open sealed boxes, destroy items simply because it is the dollarama and they feel they have the right to destroy the place. The no return no exchange policy is appropriate for a dollarama. Not all dollarama employees are nasty and mean many are nice and pleasant, it is usually the destruction of their hard work and the ignorance customers give them that turn them sour and eventually quit because of it. So next time you feel like shooting off at the lips about the dollarama think how hard those people work and how terrible they are treated and disrespected by customers. Get over yourself and move on.

****buy*****

Well OP you were stupid enough to by something that reads "Made in China"

I was Dollarama looking around staying there at some things that to long they were asking me still there

I through they made mistake my receipts tonight

I have tried phoning and leaving messages over and over . This bar has a piece of plastic in it and it lodged in my mouth, and make me choke . I spit it into a bag with the butter I took it in and the other piece of the bar. Someone needs to contact me before someone chokes on it .

If you're going here, good luck finding a parking space. The older cashier with grey hair is extremely rude but no where near as rude as the manager who blatantly harass, abuse and steals from their customers. They sell broken, and faulty products that don't do what they say they will do.

My husband bit into a snickers bar that I purchased at your Angus location yesterday and bit into a pin. I have notified location and police! Police are on their way to my home now.

Angus Ontario not USA

I had dropped some money "$50" and one of the employees had seen who had taken it and refused to do anything about it and asked for the camera's to be checked and why they thought it was funny and trying to make me seem like a liar and just got treated poorly and i'm Emotional hurt by this, I didn't deserve to be treated the way I did.

They are terrible .
They are from China but no mention of that on the tin .
Your merchandise is fine but no way will I buy food products, other than name brand chocolate bars, from you .
Low prices doesn't have to equate to deceptive marketing practices .

Without going into a tirade with this Mac pr1c4, not all stores have bathrooms for customers. It's unfortunate but true.

Remember that if you have a condition, the condition is not written on a big board hovering over your head. You have to ask politely to use the bathroom. If that doesn't work you then can FYI them of your condition -- subtly! Causing a scene does not get your needs across and only further damages the other disabled people who need the kindness, understanding and tactfullness of others when faced with a bathroom emergency.

And developing acting skills really works wonders. I'm glad I practiced looking desperate. It comes in handy even when you just have to pee.

Reading these comments is literally the best thing ever. My stomach is hurting from laughing at this MAC guy. 😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣
