Family Dollar offers a wide variety of items that customers may be looking for, although it does not carry everything found in larger stores like Wal-Mart. The store itself is well-regarded, but some customers have noted that a few workers can be rude. Despite this, many shoppers choose to remain positive and not let rudeness affect their experience. Customers appreciate that the store usually has what they need but are advised to be cautious of "fake sale" items, as some stores have faced issues with misleading prices.
