Dollar General in Helen is a small town store with friendly staff and a welcoming atmosphere. Customers appreciate the kindness of the team, who help find items like towels and are generally sweet and helpful. The store has recently implemented an AI-powered automatic payment system that greets customers and processes transactions efficiently. However, some customers find the store poorly organized, with shelves often blocked by carts and shelves not fully stocked, making it difficult to find items. Cashiers are rarely visible on the aisles, and shoppers often have to self-checkout. Despite these issues, customers recognize the effort to stock shelves during store hours and appreciate the friendly service, though some feel more organization would improve the shopping experience.
The guy who works here is super friendly and lively for dollar general.

Before you come here, make sure you call and see if they’re open, ran by here at 7:50 st night and the lady told me, and a bunch of other folks that she’s close, no signs on doors indicating different closing times or anything.

We went into Helen this weekend for tubing from Decatur Georgia. Diane Galloway and the whole team was so very friendly and welcoming! She helped us find towels and her team is so sweet and kind. Can’t wait to visit Helen again!
