“I come here multiple times a week most of the time. The store is always clean, well stocked, and staff is always friendly and available! But the main reason I wanted to review is to give a shout out to their employee, Cliff! I came towards the end of the evening to get blue Gatorade. Unfortunately once coming to the register I realized I left my card at home in my purse. While trying to figure out if my phone had Apple Pay, cliff went above and beyond and paid for the Gatorade for me. What cliff didn’t know is there’s a reason I come to the store so often for Gatorade! It is all my autistic child will drink and she burns through them like gas. I had a long hard day with her when coming to the store and was feeling so down and exhausted, dreading the idea of driving all the way back home to get my card, and that small act of kindness from Cliff turned my day around. He didn’t have to do that but he did! Great store and employees! The young lady that works there is incredibly sweet too! And cliff I will be back tomorrow with the 8 bucks I now owe you!”
“Great little store. Great dollar store (they do sell a few things over $1.25 BUT they are in a designated area with signage so that you are aware it is OVER $1.25 which is awesome). Awesome staff. And quick checkout too.”
“This Dollar General is absolutely amazing!! My sister made a quick trip and I forgot to have her grab Fairlife Chocolate Milk. I called her phone only to realize she had forgotten it. I called Dollar General and Sandy answered the phone. She was slightly taken aback (understandably) by my request but she came through for me!! She told me that she’d relay the message to the cashier and she definitely did. My sister came home with the chocolate milk and I couldn’t have been happier.What seems to be a small gesture is huge to someone else. Thank you to the workers at DG!”
“I cannot believe how good the deals were and how much stuff I found… As a girl with an unusual shape it’s usually really hard for me to find things that fit. I walked out with two huge bags And I am ecstatic! I will be back tomorrow!”
“I go there several times of the year when at the Cardinal Center... always nice service an staff... last year at the end of August.. they closed at 3:30 PM... pretty sad... people do not want to work... and as much as people want to shop... hopefully 2024 will be different... I liked their produce dept. and selection... in the store...”
“I go here all the time. One big thing that drives me nuts is customers re- arranging the shelves. There's only 5 employees. They can't do anything about it sometimes. People always complain about the availability; you know what? Then drive to Marion to Walmart. It's a cheap convinant store what do you expect?”
“First time at this Dollar Tree. Was looking for the Snickers and Twix iced coffee drinks. Unfortunately they didn't have any, so I decided to try the Cinnamon Toast Crunch ones. I'm keeping my fingers crossed they are as good as the others.”
“I came in a hurry looking for super glue and asked the clerk Bethany were it was...She walked me right to it! Bethany is definitely a go-getter and a great asset to Dollar general thanks again Bethany”
Burlington Stores is giving its locations a major makeover. The off-price retailer has already transformed about half of its 1,115 stores and plans to complete the redesign across its entire fleet by the end of 2026. The company calls this makeover "Store Experience 2.0." Gone are the cramped aisles and confusing layouts that once defined discount shopping. Instead, Burlington is creating wider walkways, organized sections, and clearer signs to help shoppers find what they need.
Dollar General is adding more of its private label food offerings to stores, following similar moves by big retailers like Walmart and Amazon as store brands keep growing in popularity. The store is launching new items under its own labels, including ice cream, cinnamon rolls, coffee syrups, and salad dressings. The move comes as store brand sales reached $271 billion in 2024, up nearly 4% from 2023.
Daiso, the beloved Japanese retailer known for its variety of affordable household goods, is expanding further in the U.S. market. This week, the company is celebrating the grand openings of three new stores in Texas and California. On Saturday, Aug. 10, Daiso debuted an 8,000-sq.-ft. location in Beaumont, Texas, at Dowlen Towne Center, as well as two Southern California stores - a 6,319-sq.-ft. space in Van Nuys at Mid Valley Marketplace and a 5,200-sq.-ft. store in Westminster at Westminster Center.
Dollar Tree is moving into 170 former 99 Cents Only stores, marking a big shift in the discount retail landscape. The company announced Wednesday it's taking over leases in Arizona, California, Nevada, and Texas, with plans to reopen the stores under its own brand as early as fall 2024.
Ollie's Bargain Outlet just landed a great deal of its own, winning a $14.6 million bankruptcy auction for 11 former 99 Cents Only store locations across Texas. The discount retail chain pounced after 99 Cents Only abruptly went out of business in March, shuttering all 371 of its stores in California, Arizona, Texas, and Nevada. Ollie's quickly made an opening "stalking horse bid" to grab over a dozen of the empty properties.
