“Old CVS Building” Becoming Frankfort’s Second Dollar Tree

18,000 cars and trucks pass daily by the former CVS building on West Walnut Street in Frankfort across from Susan Kaspar State Farm Insurance Agency.  Observant drivers on 28 already noticed new lines on a new parking lot in front of the grey building.

Frankfort can expect to see a second Dollar Tree store by April in the renovated “CVS building”, which is already undergoing interior work.  Nicole Troup will be the new manager of the Frankfort West store and Patty Tash will remain manager of the Frankfort East store.  Four more Dollar Tree stores are entering into the Greater Lafayette Market, making Dollar Tree soon available in 9 locations in the Greater Lafayette market.

Dollar Tree’s niche features items for $1.25 and now a few isles with “Dollar Tree Plus” items for $3 and $5.
