“I havent checked it out yet but it has my girlfriend and I's initials. That's very cute. I know we celebrate it everytime we pass by from our roadtrips to Missouri”
“Ciose to the house. They've got snacks, paper products, cleaning supplies and lots more at a great price. I'm there almost every day. The freindly staff is a bonus!”
“The rise of dollar stores in this country over the past couple of decades is likely a concept that will be studied in business schools for generations to come; after all, for us GEN Xers and older, who grew up with Pic N Save, Big Lots, Kmart, and other large discount stores, the concept is not exactly new even if the square footage and floor plan is novel. But I suppose I'm getting a little academic, and probably ahead of myself for the firstreview that yet exists for this little Dollar General store in the northeastern parts of Arkansas. We stopped nearby to top off our diesel tanks and a couple of cans, and hunt around for DEF (I'm still not used to that extra expense, but I guess it just comes with the territory...) since the truck and trailer were already stopped next-door, we wandered over here to look for snacks and drinks, and found plenty inside. As it turned out, the smaller Dollar General had a pretty substantial display of chips, sweet treats, soft drinks, and some shelf stable food. It kind of made me wonder if this DG, like so many other that have sprung up in small towns across the United States... At least as much as our road trips have shown us... Is the primary source of food for some of the local residents. I may never know that, but in the simplest of terms, this is sort of a one stop shopping spot for your essentials, that is if your expectations for variety are not too high, and you don't use fancy shampoo. A cursory inspection of the store showed that it was well-stocked, well-maintained, and the folks running the place are the usual kind of kind you come to expect when you get away from the big cities of this nation. Country hospitality and kindness have not failed me yet in more than 40 years of traveling around. I can't imagine when we will be back through this little neck of the woods, but like so many other places we've visited, good people are where are you find them, and a quaint little store that can meet your basic needs at a bargain price is always welcome in my life, whether I'm on vacation, working, or whatever that thing is that I do sort of between the two.”
“Pleasantly surprised to find this hidden gem with a hot food deli in the back. Sure glad I ordered; this is a burger only Jesus could have led me to. It was made fast and fresh, and the quality was 100% right. Keep doing what you're doing, I'll be back for more. And who knew you can even buy plumbing parts here?”
“I absolutely love this Dollar General. They have the most helpful and friendly staff out of any up the other dollar generals I have been to. The store was not only a well organized but also it was very clean. Although it is a dollar store their prices can still be a little higher then you would expect. With that said they are still the most efficient place to shop in my opinion.”
“Stopped at this DG on the way to Missouri. The store was relatively clean although they had some stuff in aisles due to restocking. They had everything I came for in-stock and it was easy to get in and out of the store and back on the highway. Good store for a quick stop.”
“Very convenient location, the only one around. They seem to be a bit under construction inside, but thats great for them to update. They had a great amount of hot food choices, which hit the spot, actually. Very friendly staff!”
Walmart wants your groceries at the door before the ice cream softens. On May 29, the retailer said its 30-minute-or-less delivery had reached 33 U.S. markets, adding a wave of new cities across the Northeast. Shoppers in those areas can order from more than 100,000 items, everything from fresh produce and baby formula to pet food, electronics, cold medicine, and prescriptions. Behind the scenes, the service leans on Walmart's store network and an algorithm that factors in order size, available drivers, and distance from the store.
Trader Joe's keeps adding stores, and shoppers keep showing up. The California grocer has marked nine more locations as "opening soon," pushing its expansion into new corners of the country.

Kroger broke ground on the Canal Winchester location on March 19 at the southeast corner of Diley Road and Greengate Boulevard.
