        December 15, 2005, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of
        Dollar Tree Stores, Inc. approved the acceleration of the vesting date of
        all
        previously issued, outstanding and unvested options under all current stock
        option plans, including the 1995 Stock Incentive Plan, the 2003 Equity Incentive
        Plan and the 2004 Executive Officer Equity Plan, effective as of December
        15,
        2005. </font></div>
      <div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.3; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><br></div>
      <div style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN-LEFT: 0pt; TEXT-INDENT: 0pt; LINE-HEIGHT: 1.3; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0pt" align="left"><font style="DISPLAY: inline; FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Times New Roman">The
        Company believes that the decision to accelerate the vesting of these options,
        almost all of which have exercise prices that are higher than our current
        stock
        price, will give employees increased performance incentives and will enhance
        current retention. The Company also implemented the acceleration program
        to
        eliminate non-cash compensation expense that would have been recorded in
        future
        periods following the Company&#8217;s adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board
        Statement No. 123, &#8220;Share Based Payment (revised 2004)&#8221;, (FAS 123R) in the first
        quarter of fiscal 2006. FAS 123R requires recognizing compensation cost for
        any
        unvested stock options at the date of adoption over the remaining requisite
        service period of the options. Currently, the Company accounts for options
        using
        the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles
        Board Opinion No. 25, &#8220;Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees&#8221; and provides
        footnote disclosure of the compensation expense associated with stock options.
        The future expense that will be eliminated as a result of the option
        acceleration program is estimated to be approximately $15.0 million (before
        tax)
        over a period of four years during which the options would have vested. This
        determination is based on the estimated number of options presently outstanding
        subject to the acceleration program and is net of an adjustment for estimated
        forfeiture of certain (in the money) options, for which the company expects
        to
        take an immediate charge of approximately $125,000. </font></div>

        WARNING
        ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: This Form 8-K contains "forward-looking
        statements" as that term is used in the Private Securities Litigation Reform
        Act
        of 1995. Forward-looking statements address future events, developments or
        results and typically use words such as believe, anticipate, expect, intend,
        plan, forecast, or estimate. For example, the Company&#8217;s forward-looking
        statements include statements regarding its expectation for how the decision
        to
        accelerate option vesting will affect future earnings and how it affects
        employee performance incentives and retention. For a discussion of the risks,
        uncertainties and assumptions that could affect our future events, developments
        or results, you should carefully review the "Risk Factors," "Business," and
        "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
        of
        Operations" sections in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed April 14, 2005
        and
        the &#8220;Management&#8217;s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
        Operations&#8221; section of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed December 8, 2005.
        Also, carefully review "Risk Factors" in our most recent prospectuses filed
        November 15, 2000 and August 3, 2000. In light of these risks and uncertainties,
        the future events, developments or results described by our forward-looking
        statements in this document could turn out to be materially and adversely
        different from those we discuss or imply. We are not obligated to release
        publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements contained in this
        press
        release to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of this
        report and you should not expect us to do so.</font></div>
