Oh my... Well, lets start by mentioning that this location is not handicap accessible.πŸš«β™ΏπŸš«None of the aisles are ever cleared out enough to safely get through. No wheelchairs will be able to fit down the aisles.Also, this is purely speculation, but Im pretty sure that over half of their backstock is currently being stored in the aisles and packing the hallway by the bathrooms.Alot of the shelves are depleted, so finding items easily will not be an option. Youll also be lucky if you even find what you came for.The place is just mayhem.No order whatsoever.I had a manager try to help with a botched transaction, and she was using profanity because she couldnt figure out how to fix it.I thought it was actually pretty funny really, but there are alot of customers who would have been offended.This place looks like someone just threw merch in the back door, and if it landed on the shelves, why thats just coincidence.It REALLY is as if this Dollar General store was plucked from the ghetto of Detroit.I must say, I still go there. I will continue to go there because there are no other affordable choices outside of Walmarts labyrinthine abyss.I personally dont think its that bad. You will find some good deals. Its just hit or miss if youre looking for an exact item, and dont count on any help.

This store has always been dirty & stuff in aisle ways. Only go there if I have to. Today there were several young men there hustling & stocking the shelves. Looked better than Ive seen it since it was new.

I quit going to this store years ago because it is always a mess! Carts of products packed in every isle. Empty shelves. The shelves that arent empty are very disorganized. Well, I went in tonight because Ive heard they had new management and there has been no improvement. It is still a disaster. I normally love dollar generals but this one is consistently in poor shape. I dont know if theyre just always understaffed or what. But I do know if I was the store manager or district manager Id be very embarrassed to call this store mine.

Review β„–18

Lately, it seems as though everytime I shop there are blank spaces where a lot of the sale items are missing. Dodging metal carts with product on them that needs to be stocked. I only see 2-3 employees (usually 2) working on different tasks. One of those employees has to run the cash register and stock.I have to say that any time I have asked for help, usually to find something, whichever employee that I approach helps me without a problem and shows me where the item is located.Customer service is exceptional. The employees take that extra minute to make the customers feel at home. Greeting regulars by name, or remembering the cigarettes that you smoke. Sometimes giving you ideas in how to save on shopping.Dollar Generals digital coupons are wonderful. If an item is on sale but also has a manufacturers coupon, the savings are great. They do not limit, as far as I know, the amount if coupons you can download to your account. They have their competitors beat in that respect. Plus, you get a coupon at checkout for the coming .Saturday, where if you spend a certain amount, I believe its around $10, you get $5 off your purchase.I suggest that management should consider extra employees to stock shelves after deliveries, and before and after rush times to keep sale items stocked.All around, the customer service and digital coupons make shopping there a very pleasant experience.

The Dollar General store here used to be great. Now it is messy and not stocked properly. They also very under staffed. When I visited this store the other day there was rack after rack of new unopened stock in the aisles. It was pushed against the shelves. If you needed something that was located behind the racks of unopened new stock you were just out of luck. Please Dollar General dont be so cheap. Hire some more help and get your groove back.

The store needs to be cleaner. More organized. They also do not need to smoke outside the front doors. They need to move the smoke area down around the building.

Staff is friendly and helpful. But it always seems like they need more staff since there are constantly boxes and stocking carts in the way of the tiny aisles. Always has empty shelves in areas like laundry detergent/cleaning supplies where I assume coupon people have wiped it out.

They have just about anything you need or want under one roof without walking through a superstore and have a fair selection and low prices. I love their cleaning products and household needs like bathroom towels, washcloths, kitchen towels and pot holders and oven mitts. Also sandals & flip flops & sport shoes for kids & they have plenty of seasonal toys, games, and puzzles.

My experience today was definitely NOT a positive. I have had the Dollar General digital coupon app for quite some time now. Recently, I got a new telephone number on my cell. Upon attempting to utilize the coupons I had chosen, the machine would not accept my new number. When I tried the old number, the machine continued to fail to download. I asked the cashier if she could somehow input the coupons from my phone. She continued ringing up the purchases that the digital coupons were meant for without so much as a polite response. She simply said that the number would not download and charged the price before the coupons. My cousin and I shop at Dollar General for several different products things a few times a month. due to the bargains and coupons. We both subsist on Social Security, so every penny counts. This may seem a petty greivance to many, but to those of us with such limited budgets, we have to watch our dimes and nickels. I knew that she could check my purchases against the list of coupons marked on my phone. Another clerk had done it for me a previous time when to machine failed to download. When I asked her again, she said it was too late, we would have to pay the higher price. She then refused to answer any additional questions and turned her attention away from us to the mouthy man behind us in line. I was appalled. She acted as if we didnt matter. I am sure your company knows that without your most loyal customers, your workforce becomes obsolete. I dont think I will be a customer there any longer.

This store is not that bad. The staff tries and tries and stocks constantly but when you go there and they don’t have what you need, you call them lazy and call the store disguising. If the costumers didn’t leave fast food drink cups or empty packages of things they’ve stolen, throw the stuff in their basket on the floor because they are β€œupset”. The costumers who go to this store act like it is so much worse than it is. It is not β€œdisgusting” it is just unorganized. I don’t understand why we all just can’t have a little respect when we go to the store and not throw a fit like a two year old because they didn’t get to con the cashier into risking his job to mark down something that was placed in a wrong spot because a costumer decided they didn’t want it after they walked halfway threw the store. I watched a women grab a box of ice cream, give two to her kids and than proceed to place the box on a random shelf. The costumers are the reason the store is so bad. The staff does its job. Some people were just not raised with respect for other people’s property.

I dont know what happened to the Urbana store. For the last 9 months the store has been a mess. Empty shelves. I complained about things not being stocked and shelves being empty and the reply I got was must be a computer error cause we dont do the ordering the register does. Well you must have some thevies then cause your shelves are very empty. Ive been coming to this store for over 20 years and here lately I have to go to Walmart cause you dont have in stock what I need. About to cut Dollar General out all together. Poor staffing and management...

Decent pieces, friendly staff, however they do not have a good store layout, they do not keep their parking lots clean in the winter during snow and ice, and the isles are so cluttered and congested that you cant get through them. Oh and not to mention that two carts cant even pass each other because the isles are too narrow

Every time I come into this location, it smells like cigarette smoke. Im not sure if the employees smoke in the back or what, but I dont want to smell cigarettes in a store. Also, the shopping basket were so filthy and black, I wouldnt even touch one. There are always boxes and carts blocking aisles. Absolutely disgusting.

This place was filthy. Floors had trash and dirt every where. Product and boxes on floors in every isle. Unorganized and empty shelves. Freight on carts in isles making.it very difficult to shop. This not only is unacceptable its very dangerous and is a safety hazard not on the someone disabled as myself but anyone in general. I was so disgusted I asked to speak with the manager on duty about this problem. She assured me there is a team coming in for help them this week to get it cleaned up and they are also hiring more associates.Lets hope so because next time I will be calling corporate.
