“A bit cluttered, and always short staffed but cashiers always friendly and helpful, and store well stocked . Love the large selection of greeting cards!! Hope the road construction crew get the road finished SOON, as it is very difficult to enter and exit parking lot right now”

“This store has so much stuff in here. It's literally a "General" store as it says it is. Just don't come here if you are claustrophobic. You will probably have a panic attack at some point, especially if there are other people shopping in the aisles with you. There is not much room to move do to the amount of inventory in here.I stopped in today looking for some specific containers to fit my collectibles for traveling, and the cashier was super nice and let me bring a couple to the counter and even bring my collectibles inside to check and see if they would fit before buying them instead of wasting my money on something that wouldn't work and having to return them. That was extremely nice of her. I didn't get her name, but she was working today at the Altoona store at around 3:30pm...So if you read this, Thank you very much for your help, I really appreciated it.”

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 absolutely love this Dollar general they treat me like family and I'm not just saying that. Couple times I went in there looking for a last minute mask to pick up my kids from daycare in and they were nice enough just to hand me one from behind the counter. They are always so nice when I come in and super nice when I leave. The environment is probably the main reason that I keep going in there. Love this place.”

“I enjoy going to Dollar tree cuz I'm doing crafting right now and they have a lot of interesting things. My one Downfall with them and I have contacted the company and spoke to the several square managers they sell bottled products and charge you the money for the deposit and get their not accepting of the cans back in their stories that I don't think is right. No one has replied as of yet”

“Seriously, let’s remember that it’s Dollar Tree . I didn’t see anyone prepping a red carpet for me and I’m pretty sure they don’t need to cater to any one of us with white gloves. That said-this location rocks my socks!! Best one I’ve been to for size and selection (the only one in this area with crafters corner AND a $5+ section y’all). I thought it was pretty tidy considering and the employees were nice. I’m honestly not sure anymore about what some people expect when they are out in actual reality these days >:}”

“You never know what u are going to find there. But like every store you just have to watch what you buy. Most times everything you buy there is more than the price you pay. I love this store.”

“I’m not always happy with this particular store. Usually staff issues. Today however a staff member really went out of their way to help, checked for something in the back room when I couldn’t find it and noticed they had new freight they were working on. Found my items and brought them up. Very nice lady. Customer service is really everything. Thank you.”

“Store was better than most when it comes to clutter, sometimes I feel like you can't even breath because there is Soo many items in store. It's like they need a bigger store front in order to sell what they have to offer. On the bright side though, the ladies are great with helping you find what you are wanting!”

“I had a good shopping experience at this Family Dollar as I always do when I go into a Family Dollar. The prices are competitive as is to be with any store, when it comes to house decoration you can find some unique items for affordable prices which I like. The only thing that I have an issue with which seems to be an issue at all Family Dollars, is the fact that there Overstock is always in the center of the aisles which makes it difficult for shopper's what carts to navigate the store. This also makes the store look cluttered or unorganized which I know is not the case. I would and will continue to shop at Family Dollar even if its just to run in and grab a quick bag of chips or to spend some time and see what they have new.”
