No. Although Dollar Tree and Family Dollar are owned by the same company, it doesn't mean the two stores have connectivity like Old Navy and Gap.

15. Can you exchange items you bought at Family Dollar with a coupon?
Yes, but beware.
Family Dollar accepts manufacturer coupons — both printable and newspaper. You can use one manufacturer coupon per item in store.
If you decide you don't want an item you bought with a coupon, Family Dollar won't stop you from returning or exchanging it. But just know that it's technically coupon fraud against the manufacturer.
If at some point you've absolutely got to return an item and there's no way to retrieve your coupon, it's up to you, but we don't recommend making this a practice.
