A DOLLAR TREE fan has raved about a kitchen essential that costs less than $2 and is over four times cheaper than a similar Amazon product.

The mug can be bought for just $1.25 and is allegedly a famous Dollar Tree item.

The Mason Jar Glass Coffee Mug has “become synonymous with Dollar Tree,” according to YouTuber Matt Granite, known as The Deal Guy (@thedealguy).

Granite reviewed the popular product in a video on his channel and praised its affordable price, explaining that four jars could be purchased for just $5.

These mugs “are a huge value,” he said.

He compared the mason jars to a similar item on Amazon, noting that the Dollar Tree product is much cheaper.

Amazon sells a four-pack of mason jars for $21.99 – a much higher price tag than the Dollar Tree dupe.

“The dollar tree version which I know and love can hold its own against the Amazon one,” Granite said.

“If you do need a lid, however, they’re only included with the Amazon version.”

He explained that this was the only difference between the two products.

“That would be the only reason to support that higher price,” he argued, speaking about the Amazon mason jars.

The U.S. Sun contacted the YouTuber for comment.

Dollar Tree shoppers have continuously raved about the store’s wide range of affordable dupes.

From beauty products to cleaning items, videos on YouTube and TikTok have flooded social media with rave reviews about the discount retailer’s products.

Recent popular Dollar Tree items have included facecloths, household fall decor, and stain-removing wipes.

The retailer’s microfiber cloths have been a staple in some shoppers’ beauty routines.

“I guarantee if the packaging was changed and placed in a high-end store with a $15 price on it, people would swear it’s the best quality microfiber they’ve ever come across,” one fan said.

Dollar Tree dupes

Savvy shoppers have scoured Dollar Tree to find dupes of their favorite products

Shoppers found a perfect replica of a $150 set of Pottery Barn plates and bowls. Plus, Dollar Tree has matching mugs.

Dollar Tree also had dupes for the viral Starbucks tumblers.

Customers found dupes for Home Depot’s $39 outdoor solar lights.

Dollar Tree has a dupe for The Pink Stuff cleaning paste, too.

Another shopper praised Dollar Tree’s Autumn Maple Leaf Tree and said it was an essential fall accessory for the home.

The tree costs $26.75 and is much cheaper than a similar item from Pottery Barn, which is a whopping $299.

And finally, another Dollar Tree fan raved about its Stain Remover Wipes which cost just $1.25.

Meanwhile, shoppers have been outraged after Dollar Tree’s announcement that it would increase its price cap from $1.50 to $7 in March 2025 in some stores.

But Dollar Tree CEO Rick Dreiling said he was encouraged by the price hikes taking place across 1,600 stores.

“We are encouraged by the continuous progress we are making in the transformation underway at Dollar Tree and Family Dollar, despite immense pressures from a challenging macro environment,” he said in a statement after the company’s second fiscal quarter results were released.
