“I like dollar general it's simple and mostly cheaper than other places. Not always the cleanest but okay most of the time. Staff is nice and helpful they do their best to get you checked out pretty fast.”
“The ladies who work here are very friendly, salt-of-the-earth folks. It's always a very welcoming place. They're also really good about calling checkout help to the front if there's a line. Like most dollar stores, it is rather messy, with a lot of carts and boxes of unpacked product out in the aisles. But this is the place to come for affordable cleaning supplies, kitchen utensils, plastic organizers, toiletries, and other little household things that are often 2-3x more expensive elsewhere. I generally steer clear of the foodstuffs, but every now and then I find a deal on a quality item (like name brand A1 sauce).”
“My toddler and I, Were helped by a phenomenal employee. I had my hands full, and my daughter in the other. As we were leaving she opened the door for me and walked my bags ALL the way to the car, despite the pouring rain and it being freezing out, such a sweet soul. Fantastic staff!!!!”
