“They have a really good meat department. Some of the sales can't be beat, $1.99 a pound chicken wings and pork chops but there's some regular groceries they are missing. Do all my meat shopping here but regular groceries at Aldi's”
“Dollar General is a perfect miniature Wal Mart in my opinion. I based this on the 1st time I saw & went to a Wal Mart was in Sandusky, OH before we went to Cedar Point in the late 80's early 90's, Wal-Mart was the size of Dollar General but more like a Kmart but a bigger variety of products, not manufacturers, & better price. A great place instead of your convenience store, to purchase household & other products even a frozen food section, most importantly most prices are lower than Wal-Mart's & you are in & out”
“I love the variety of the food items and non-food items! There are so many different cool things! There was shrimp there! I feel it's a great place to shop! The sales team is very nice and made me feel welcomed! Dollar General Stores rock!”
“on rt 19 north it a best than 19 south 19 north has everything what happen on 19 south everything empty nothing to buy what need not like as before was good now it sucks! I will go on rt 19 north better be good for long time”
“Again I give the Dollar General store credit in this time of need they have gone over and Beyond what they need to do to make sure all of their customers are satisfied”
“The employees at this location were exceptionally kind, attentive, and professional from the moment we walked in. I was especially impressed with how efficient and composed our cashier was. While we were waiting in line, there was a gentleman loudly complaining about the pace of the checkout process, as if he were the only customer in the entire store and the staff, or better yet the WORLD, should somehow bend time to accommodate him. Despite his negativity, the woman working the register handled the situation with remarkable patience, courtesy, and professionalism. The way she maintained her composure and treated him with respect was genuinely jaw-dropping; I can say with absolute honesty that I wouldn’t have had the patience she demonstrated. She truly embodied what great customer service looks like!!! Beyond the outstanding staff, the store itself was clean, organized, and easy to navigate. Shelves were well-stocked and there were so many bargains that made it hard to *only* get what we came for. Every visit feels like a grocery surprise haul, and the experience with their staff only made us appreciate Ollie’s even more. We’ve always loved coming to Ollie’s, and after that, we’re confident we’ll be loyal customers for a very long time!”
“Good place to make a quick stop at for milk, or toilet paper or whatever it might be instead of having to go into town. The is a lot more dollar general's on the east coast then the west coast.”
“The workers are always so helpful and so nice. If you need anything they will try to help you find it or even put it in your car/truck. The crew is the best!!! They work so hard i always feel bad having them stop stocking or doing whatever they are doing to check me out but also greatful they do cause they are so friendly and kind no matter what. Just great staff and store altogether.”
“Love this place. Great stuff for amazingly cheap and you can buy in bulk. Not to mention i love the mystery boxes. Just to bad they are always sold out before i get one of the electronic ones. 10/10 highly recommend”
“Newly renovated and so much more spacious and clean. As soon as I walked in they asked me if there was anything I’m looking for and I told him…point me out to the section needed. Vey friendly and helpful. Though the item wasn’t there for me, did find a few other items that appeared to catch my eyes. Overall I like this place and will be back again soon. Roscoe ~ Pics4yinz”
“I love going to Gabes there is always good deals on all kind of things from. Men's womens, kids clothing, shoes and accessories. Also toys & games and household items at great prices . I love going an finding some great values at this store an the staff is helpful.”
“Great prices, it you watch the price per unit. I always get great holiday and craft items here. Cashiers are pleasant and helpful. Aisles are a bit tight, though, it someone wants to walk past your cart.”
“I gotta get my coffee creamer here, it's the only place I have found it, save for ordering it through Amazon. Prices are a bit higher but that's because of Biden. Meats can be a little sketchy”
“My favorite Dollar General.. Very clean, well stocked (when ppl aren't panic shopping) .. the staff are very friendly and helpful and the Manager Jess is a doll .. thank you for helping me the other day”
“Just like any other D.G. store as far as merchandize but this one (Croton ave) is very clean and have friendly workers and every time I go there isn't a bunch of people in there which helps with my anxiety. I'd recommend going to this one before any other one in New Castle, Pa.”
“I been coming to this store for years close to my house and always nice people working there till today .I don't know if the young girl is having a bad day or what . But she needs to learn how to talk to customers.”
“This dollar general is one of the good ones. Friendly employees but I do have to give a shoutout to the very pretty and nice girl working the register. Her name is Bri, I went in there one day trying to load money on my card and she was very helpful about it, gave me some recommendations, yesterday I went in there to just buy something for dinner and she remembered me, we talked for a little bit and I had told her that one day she is off she needs to order something at bills (on account of I work there and she remembers my bills shirt I had on ?) she is a very helpful, pretty, and hard working lady. Somebody give that girl a raise!! ?”
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.

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.
