“I just wanna share that I have a DoorDash or I came into the Dollar General today for an order and I was having difficulty finding some items but very quickly did Bobby the manager as well as her associate help me out they were very, very helpful and welcoming and it might be one of the best locations that I have experienced of in Dollar General”

“I'm so happy with the service I received today at this location! I walked in and needed balloons... Now normally I just go to the section that has ones already blown up and just pick a few from there so as to not bother anyone, but I had a specific theme I was looking for today. The women there were so sweet and helpful and DEFINITELY made me feel valued. sometimes when I go into a store, especially if you're asking for help with something that requires a little bit of extra effort, I often feel like I'm a burden or that the worker is put out by helping me, but today was the complete opposite! Both of them were the sweetest, happy to blow up the specific balloons for me and absolutely made my day! Great job to the staff at the South Delaware location in Ankeny! I'm thoroughly pleased!”

“The best place to buy a lot of things! I go there for balloons, cards, toiletries, faux flowers often.

Many locations around Des Moines to choose from. Some are better kept than others, but always a good selection.”

“I don't normally take the time to write reviews but I had to make the time today!
The cashier Thomas was outstanding. From the moment we came into the store, til he got to us: he heard him greeting and going out of his way to help customers that crossed his path. I must say this was by far the most pleasant experiences I've ever had at a Dollar tree. Definitely made our day. Keep up the great work Thomas, you're awesome!”

“The cashier today was SO sweet as I paid with coins and counted them out to deposit into cash app. She reassured me no one was behind me and didn’t want me to feel badly for it. Very endearing energy.”

“I do not know what the two girls names were that were working there this morning but I want to give them a two thumbs up. They greeted me as I walked through the door. They asked me if there was anything they could help me with and then proceeded to carry on a conversation with me two different times which I greatly appreciated. I don't think I've been into any kind that has ever had two nicer employees.”

“I'm only giving it 4 instead of 3 because of the young man who had to deal with the long line of customers after the female, I'm assuming who was on break, came to her register, making a few people think she was opening up then instead just walked away. I get that it's a break but if there's a long line, and you don't want to come back to work, don't look like you're going to jump in and help then simply ignore the line of people, who also assumed you were coming back, and left them hanging. The young man just took it all in stride, he was professional and efficient.”

“I didn't go inside the store. I pulled in their parking lot to sit out a severe storm. I couldn't see the road because it was raining so hard. Thanks for a safe place to sit out a storm. I made it home safely! ?”

“I go in this store almost every day. I have zero complaints. Workers are always very polite. Even on my worst days going to this store always cheers me up. This store is my happy place. People like to complain about the bathrooms etc.. then maybe they should come in and fix the stuff that’s broken because the employees are doing what they can. Especially when the customers are constantly stealing the keys. Try working the job they do before running mouths. I swear all the complaints on here are ridiculous. A bunch of Karen’s in my opinion. I’ve never once seen any of the workers at this DG be rude in any way or form. Just saying. This store is awesome. My children and husband love this store as well. Very welcoming and loving. I’d even go as far to say it’s my home away from home. lol. Love this store. Deserves 100 stars if I could give that.”

“I would have given a 5 but the one Hubbell down from Guthrie has a very rude cashier I was getting a gift card and I handed her my old license instead of new one. So it wouldn't go thru i.ask her.if she would run it thru again with the right license that wasn't expired she wouldn't do it. We argued and she says we'll you.dont have to come back..FINE I WONT YOUR RUDE AS HELL.. And I haven't been back to that one since”

“On my way to the airport, stopped in to grab a couple things for my flight. This is not a typical Dollar General! Clean, organized, and the three workers that were there, which is odd for Dollar General, the one guy working said 'oh it's truck day, so you see more of us at once!' made me laugh. The one lady with the tattoos, when I got to the checkout was making everyone laugh whether they were 80 or 8. She asked me 'oh you must be going on a trip somewhere with these items' I was like yeah, how do you know? She laughed and said well...either common sense, or my almost 30 years of retail, do the math kiddo...and she's younger than me! HA!

Everyone seems to want to complain about stuff, but I want people to know that this place is so cool!

Next time I am back in Des Moines, will stop here for any thing I need!”

“Laura was very kind and helpful. Offered me a coupon and helped with my bags. Lady in front of her accused her of making a racially profiled comment which was not true. Laura is amazing and I hope her day is very good.”

“Always really cute stuff for home decor here. I forget about this store alot.Why is it always dead silent in DG stores though? For real.This one is cramped....really messy and dirty out front. Bout time they installed self check out with how short staffed they have been becoming. But on the other hand... if they keeping they're employees stocking the store, then it should look nicer. This store is a messsssss.”

“I like the store, but the website bites. I logged in to add a shopping list. Just keeps saying add a store even after choosing 3 different locations and logging in and out twice. Useless...”
