“Always clean . Stocked . The staff is wonderful have not went to any other dollar general since my first experience here . I spend over half my earnings at this store .”
“Most of the workers here are friendly and helpful. However, this is the worst DG in the area with all the empty shelves. Currently there is NO dry cat food whatsoever. None! They are constantly out of everything and the selection sucks. There is never, ever any Arizona green tea. It seems like the other stores in the area have better stocked shelves and better selections of products.”
“Got exactly what I needed. This store always has a great selection and is fully stocked. I frequent this store when I'm working in the area and it's one of the best.”
“Absolutely love shopping at this dollar general. Super easy to get in and out of..always have everything I need..most of the employees are so friendly..the manager Cynthia is always so helpful when I ask questions”
“So happy Big Lots is coming back. Always been one of my favorite spots. Staff was very friendly, store was clean and organized, it was very cold inside as i think the heat isn’t working yet but not anyone’s fault.”
“It's a Dollar General ... Aisles blocked with carts of boxes waiting to be put on shelves, a produce section that could be mistaken for my composting pile ... Still, pleasant staff, lower prices than competitors, convenient. I'll keep shopping here.”
“I love shopping at this store.The manager Chad is fantastic and his employees are wonderful people to have at his store.Kind and very much helpful. Just love this these people ❤️ ? ?”
“Dear Valued Customers, On behalf of our entire store team, I want to sincerely apologize for the extended closure of our Main Street location over the past several weeks. We understand how frustrating and inconvenient it has been to arrive at our doors and find them closed, especially without clear updates or communication. Our store has now been closed for more than three weeks, and we recognize the impact this has had on your daily routines and household needs. Please know that your local store management team has been actively seeking answers and updates throughout this process. Unfortunately, communication delays and a lack of timely information from higher levels within the company left us without clear details to share. The absence of updates has been just as difficult for us as it has been for you. We have continuously advocated for clarity so we could provide accurate information to our customers. At times, the limited responses we received left us feeling unheard and discouraged. However, our commitment to you and this community has never wavered. This store is more than a retail location — it is a part of our neighborhood. We know many of you rely on us for affordable essentials, convenience, and the welcoming atmosphere our team works hard to create every single day. Your loyalty and patience mean more to us than we can express. We truly appreciate your understanding during this challenging period. As soon as we receive confirmed information regarding reopening, we will make every effort to communicate that promptly. Thank you for standing by us. We look forward to welcoming you back soon — with the same smiles and warm greetings you have come to expect. With gratitude, Your Main Street Dollar General Store Team Bloomsburg, PA”
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.
