This is thee cleanest, most organized Dollar General I have ever been to! And I have been to many... Texas, California, Connecticut & New York! The staff is highly professional, kind, upbeat, helpful and very pleasant. I always find everything I am looking for. Five +++ STARS ALL THE WAY!!!Don’t pay attention to the negative reviews because they’re all written by people who work at other Dollar Stores or Dollar General Stores nearby. These are jealous haters who simply post one or two star reviews as means to draw buyers away from this location with the hope that they’ll take this stores business to them. Pathetic losers need to get a life!

The dollar store is the dollar store but the girl working the Sunday after Christmas was awesome. Made sure I had everything needed, was patient while I went over my order, and I ended up staying a few minutes to continue to chat with her because she was so friendly and relatable. I dont remember her name but we discussed the perils of children and slime as I bought gifts for the kids.

The manager is so sweet. Love shopping in this store. Will never go to another dollar general. Store is clean and workers are polite and know what they are talking about.

The place was not clean. The workers were busy. However, the workers are very friendly and helpful. But the company needs to invest more in hiring a cleaning crew.

I am so grateful for the Dollar General in our neighborhood. The ladies that work there, along with the manager (male) are helpful and personable in a professional manner. The store is always clean and organized.

Clean and stocked but the line to cash out is way to slow to cash out. You have a line down the side and only only cashier ???? Come on. Get ur line down. They are waiting to give you money but we have to wait 20 to 30 minutes smh. Get more cashiers or call for help from the other employees

Prices are relatively inexpensive and usually have most items in stock. Store is in need of straightening and stocking of shelves with merchandise.

I’m giving 2 stars because during this Covid19 pandemic this Dollar General Store has those hard to find items in stock.The reason I’m writing this review is because today I did my usual biweekly shopping hunt for necessities. While at this Dollar General Store this trip the cashier was not very pleasant & quite punitive. While shopping the gentleman stocking in the aisle told me I can find sanitizer, disinfectant spray & disinfecting wipes behind the register counter at checkout. When I asked if there were any of these products behind the register counter the cashier looked me up & down then passively said I don’t have sanitizer, I do have wipes & spray. I said ok that’s great. Before I can ask her to give me one of each she then starts telling me the price of each. I then told her the price wasn’t my concern. I was just happy you have both - May I have one of each. At this point she says I can only choose either the container of wipes or the can of spray. She continued on saying she was there all day open to close & won’t sell me the latter should I come back to make the purchase. I asked her if she thought her responses were punitive & I only need one. She replied that the spray was her last one & the Cooperate Dollar General Office wont let her sell me the one disinfectant spray.So to the cooperate office, don’t you think it’s hard enough dealing with this pandemic & trying to stay safe & healthy is a challenge on its own to then be told you cannot buy the one item you need?? I ask, how about you tell the stores to go ahead & sell one item of each product they may need. I understand controlling the sell of purchases that are in large quantities. Simply allowing one item purchase doesn’t render fair to the person trying to buy what they need within reason.

The word dollar has more power then general good for quick (need this? That?) HOWEVER its generally overpriced to me. Spagettios cost less at a grocery store. But that word dollar makes it feel like a deal? = Dont go shopping, grab and go. Lots of stuff to run up a bill Dollar tree!

Review №31

I save money on a lot of items here, and I also save time and gas driving here because this store is near my house. Some name brand items are even cheaper here than walmart or any other store but you have to know your prices, make sure you know the price of the item before you go then see if it is comparable or better pricing here. Employees are also very nice and helpful here. 👍🏻

Dollar General is the commander of the dollar store forces. It offers a solid array of both basic and seasonal merchandise. You may not find many items selling for a single dollar but you will find much budget friendly merchandise of good value.

Customer Service First...Frozen food can wait 10 minutes... Went to the store on East Main Street today at 5:30 p.m.. Went to pay and had 16 people in front of me with one cashier working and she was trying as hard as possible to keep the line moving. There was a second girl working at the store, saw the line, made a comment that the frozen food had been sitting out to long and she couldnt help to do the line. Needless to say many people walked out of the store without buying anything. Poor customer service on the young girls part. Customers come 1st, frozen food can wait 10 minutes to get the line moving.

Gets very busy for the amount of cashiers/cash registers available. Customers can be obnoxious as well.

Review №38

Horrible experience here. The cashier wasnt nice and made it seem like I was a bother. Do not work customer service if you cannot be nice to people. Latisha seemed very annoyed by me and as a customer it hurts me. Scott, the general manager was ok. Every time I go in no one EVER seems like they want to help. I bet if the district manager was there, things would change up. Maybe employees need more training on what it really means to work in customer service. If it wasnt for customers, there would be no jobs.

Poor!!! There was an incident with a disabled customer and the employees were rude, snatched products out of the childrens hand, then continued to discuss the incident after the customer left... It was very unprofessional to discuss the matter while other customers were present..

A few coolers were broken and figures the drink that i want is in one of them and im not about to buy a hot energy drink. And the smell coming from them wasnt pleasant either. And then one of the employees was complaining about how she had to work longer, sucking her teeth and sighing over n over, while i was shopping and during checkout
