“This is the first time I've been to this Dollar Tree and it was great! So many cool things on the shelves especially being Halloween season. And the employees are wonderful! Especially Mark! He greeted everyone as they walked in and a smile never left his face. He asked me my name and used my name as he spoke to me. So personable and kind. He deserves a raise! It's not often you get a wonderful employee who goes above and beyond for their customers. Thank you Mark for making this first trip to your Dollar tree a memorable one!!”

“Nice staff, clean and neat, but doesn’t have much stuff. I see a project someone made with Dollar Tree items, go to this store and I might end up with 1 item and they don’t carry the rest.”

“This Dollar General has a bit of a problem keeping employees. I've made several attempts to shop here and they had closed the store because "no one wanted to work" is what the male manager told me. He said their cashier had walked out and they had no one to run the registers. This has happened about 3 or 4 different times that I'm aware of. Other than that happening the only other issue I had when I was able to shop was the lack of products but I understand they don't really have control over that situation, all grocery stores are having trouble with distribution. This location is kept clean and has always been able to keep prices down making it one of the cheapest places to buy groceries. The female manager at this location has been here for many years, she's always been very helpful and knowledgeable about the products. She's always friendly to the customers making the experience pleasant. She's the whole reason I shop at this location. She works hard and many hours. I personally saw her pick up the slack of one of the cashiers, keeping the line moving during a really busy time.They have competitive prices and for a dollar store, they have a decent selection. I give them 5 stars because as far as everything they can control or do, they do and make the shopping experience smooth and fast. Employees are trained to do their best but that's entirely up to them if they manage to do it, not the store of their manager.”

Since this store has been in service the customer service has always been outstanding the staff changes a lot but the choices of employees have been in line with the people who shop. I have to go back soon staff had an awesome selection of music playing!”

“Many things that can be found elsewhere but for only a dollar. 4 stars because almost Everytime I've gone to check out, the cashier's seem to not want to be there at all.”

“It was great. Mark at the register was so awesome. He greeted everyone as they came in and thanked them for shopping. Dawn who works there helped me find what I was looking for and loaded it in my cart for me. Mark, checked me out with my returns and it was smooth as can be. This store is so nice. I recommend it to everyone.”

“The staff is very nice and hard working.They sometimes have to perform several tasks at once but pull if off seamlessly. I think they have a wide variety of items and not the same old stuff you see at other dollar-type stores. The store is clean and the aisles are not blocked and cluttered like other stores. So let's applaud them for their strengths and not minor misgivings. no,I am not related to anyone there,I live in the neighborhood,go there all the time and happy they are there.”

“I could spend all my money here. There's so many things I didn't imagine they would have, especially make-up. I got a call and I had to leave, otherwise, I wouldn't have minded waiting in line and it was a long line. I'll come back when I have more time. ?”

“This city has many Dollar General locations. Customer service is always excellent. They do not always have full stock or availability of weekly specials and also general merchandise that other locations have. It is a very clean location.”

“Yesterday, i witnessed an irate customer yelling and arguing with the manager on staff about a return. The manager was wonderful at explaining the issue and rules that she has to follow even with this customer yelling at her. The manager was polite and professional during the whole debacle.”

“If you asked me weeks ago about family dollar I’d say no way I’ll go somewhere else but recently I ran in there for pop and was amazed at how clean&different the store looked before you’d go in there’d be boxes to the ceiling,the shelves were bare customers digging thru boxes trying to find what they needed and the clothes was a disaster now I went in there about 3 days ago and OMG!!! no boxes stacked up,shelves are stocked,the clothes are neat and the store just looks cleaner I give the new employees lots of credit bc that store was a disaster and with their hard work it’s done a 360 definitely will go back??????”

I got a dozen new outfits and a couple dresses for less than 100 bucks. I can't express enough how much you should check this place out!!”

“Awww! The young female behind the counter was very helpful. They didn't carry my lawn bags that I was searching for, but she directed me to where I would find some. And as usual, the items that I did purchase were less expensive and same quality as I would have found at a higher brand store. This is a great store that actually carries a lot of product in a small space. Easy parking too.”

“Quick and easy shopping.... Dropped my change didn't know it and the employee chased us down to hand us the $18 back... The area ain't so good but definitely a good environment inside the store.”

“This Dollar Store had a lot more products than I imagined they had. Lots of items that I pictured being more than a dollar and 25 cents. The back wall of the store even has refrigerator items. I and several other people all decided to check out at the same time so it was a long line. As soon as an employee noticed the line they had others jump on a register and had everyone through the lines in just a few minutes. Great store for a dollar store. They have a little of everything there. Party items, crafts, kids' toys, shelved foods, snacks, electronics, refrigerator foods, gardening supplies, holiday items, and a lot more.”
