“I have been in this particular Dollar General several times. It is a great place for stocking stuffers, movie candy and odd and ends that you need in a hurry for a low price. My review is to focus on Vinny. He is an employee usually behind the register. Great personality. He remembered my name after my first visit. Vinny was friendly, professional and was very engaging in conversation. He has a strong handshake and looks you in the eye when he speaks. A fantastic quality in only a handful of young men his age. He is an asset to the Dollar General team. Great job Vinny. Sincerely, your friend Mark.”
“Public service announcement: DO NOT come to this Dollar Tree for Pokémon cards if you actually want to get Pokémon cards.
They do get them. That’s the wild part. They absolutely exist here… for about 3.7 seconds. By the time you walk in, blink, and head toward the toy aisle, they’re already gone like a rare spawn that despawned the moment you logged in.
Store itself? Totally fine. Clean, stocked, classic Dollar Tree experience. Just understand this is not the place for Pokémon card optimism. Come for snacks and party supplies, not packs.
Verdict: 4 stars. Great store. Terrible odds.”*”

“This is my third Dollar Tree location, and overall it’s solid. The store is clean, aisles are mostly organized, and it’s easy to get in and out without feeling overwhelmed. You can tell there’s effort being put into keeping the place presentable.
Not quite perfect, but definitely one of the better Dollar Tree experiences.
Verdict: 4 stars. Clean, convenient, and dependable.”*”

“I have been going in looking for Dumplings for a few weeks. Every time I came in Nicholas Lardieri was there smiling, and willing to help anyone that walked in the door. Always a warm smile and friendly tone. He even told me about something similar to Dumplings to hold my kids over. Without his input I would not have known about the other toy that made my kids equally happy.”

“I love this store. So many different style curtains to look at. This is a hidden gem. Also not expensive. Beautiful Christmas items at a great price. And also clothes at a very good price. Like I said hidden gem. I go their mainly for the curtains. Different styles and colors. Where else can you go to look and decide what kind of window curtains you like? To see and feel texture. Nowhere but here?”
“In spite of the prices going up lately on certain items, I definitely still like going to the store pick up a lot of things for home and also from my job scrub, brushes or Ziploc bags. I'm a painter so I definitely use some of the stuff that's in there but I've been going there for years and I highly recommend it”
“I called beforehand and Terry made sure to hold my items for me. He was super polite and one of the nicest employees I've have an encounter with, would definitely shop again just for that experience with Terry.”
“So missed job lot! But now there is ocean state job lot!! Love it! Get some great buys in things I needed and also on thing I didn't know I needed!! Worth the drive! Oh and the staff is so friendly and helpful!!”

“They have so much to choose from. I love their seasonal items. It's a great place to shop for household items too. I purchase all my cleaning supplies here. Everything is at a reasonable price.”
“The staff in this location are incredible ,friendly always there to help a customer in so many ways. If you need help locating an item or if you have previously purchased but no longer see it they will assist you to try different methods to locate/find it. They are never to busy to stop what they are doing to help you. The produce is always fresh and well priced .i love that you can find a variety of ethnic rices and side dishes. It very much reminds me of an old school neighborhood grocery store.”

“I walked into this Dollar Store today and was completely impressed with the organization and cleanliness. I asked for and spoke with the store manager and staff and commended them on how nice it was to walk into this particular store and see the effort.
This store definitely puts other dollar stores I have been in to shame !!!”

“Great place for party supplies, gift wrap and bags.. an excellent selection of cards at unbeatable prices. The owner is a lovely woman who is always willing to assist customers!”
“One of the best dollar general around there is nothing I can say bad about it Staff is amazing and friendly and they also have an amazing selection of product I know some nights they close 10 minutes early especially if they were dead the last hour or so which I can't blame them they gotta clean the store sweet and all that don't worry dollar general your killing it!”
“I have a theory. A conspiracy, if you will. Every time I walk into this Dollar General, the shelves are stocked with everything EXCEPT Pokémon cards and Hot Wheels. Coincidence? I think not.
I’m starting to believe there’s a secret underground operation where the employees get first dibs, crack packs in the back room, and race Hot Wheels down the aisles after hours. Again—no proof. Just vibes. STRONG vibes.
Store itself? Clean, convenient, gets the job done. But until I witness a single Pokémon blister pack in the wild, I will remain suspicious.
Verdict: 4 stars. Solid Dollar General, but I’m watching you… and so is my inner child.”*”
“Dollar General always has some great HIDDEN deals! You just have to know how to find them. I have been going to this store since I moved to south Jersey from north Jersey where I lived my entire life. I think this DG is better than the DG stores in north Jersey ”

“This particular Dollar General is located just outside my neighborhood so it's convenient for me to go to this one. However, it's very messy and not very well stocked. The employees are overworked and dragging through their day. I've had a few vent to me about working 70+ hrs a week, every new employee they higher quits within the 1st few days. I see the same 2 women employees working daily. It's quite obvious that the brunt of this store's operation is on their shoulders. They are unable to keep up with the daily tasks with it just being them. You can see that the store is taking a big hit and is becoming run down. It's a mess.. plastic on the floors, many palettes of merchandise are taking up the floors every which way you turn. Something needs to he done.”
“I just wanted to give this store a review they deserve. I've been to a lot of dollar trees and have never received the most friendly atmosphere as I did in this location. From the minute I walked in, I was greeted with an energetic hello. I came in with a mission to see if there were any items marked down. As I was walking down the aisles, I saw another employee ( whom Id come to find out was the store manager, Deninse) I complimented on how beautiful her store was and the merchandising made shopping an ease. When I tell you every single item was lined up perfectly, I am not kidding. she asked how I was doing, chatted about the weather and asked what brought me in. We then began chatting about how I am always out looking for sale items to donate ( a women's shelter, and a senior communities food pantry). It was night and day from the interactions that I literally receive from 99% of other locations. I was a store manager for 20 years and I live about 39 mins from this store, but I will be driving to this location to do my shopping.”
“I really like the Forked River Family Dollar the workers are very on point and professional especially the man that's been there for a long time He's tall and I forgot his name it's a shame I did I'm getting older so things I am forgetting lol you have great items for great prices you wouldn't believe it go check it out on Lacey road right off the parkway next to the super Wawa ???☃️??⚽⚾?? ? ??️✏️??️?️?????? you name it they got it from holidays to food products as well as home items always in stock”
