This is November 30, 2023. I just made a trip to our Dollar General in Belle, MO 65013. I picked up two pieces of merchandise in the store and proceeded to the self check out. The time was approximately 8:20 in the evening. I saw no one in the store. No customers, no store personnel. My first item wouldn't ring up. I pushed the help button on the screen...

My name is Ashley Morgan. I was hired at the Dollar General Store #12585 by "OMAR". I was never on the schedule to begin my job. Then I received a "OPEN ENROLLMENT' October23-November3 form. Then I received a 'INSTRUNCTIONS FOR CLAIMING UNPLOYMENT BENEFITS' form on November 7,2023. I called [protected], talked to 'James' who gave me #0814709 to fix this oversight. He even said he will inform Mr. KIAH the D.M. I would like to understand/resolve this ASAP.

While in the Minier, IL DG (61759) I witnessed the manager, Paula, reprimanding an employee on the sales floor around other customers. It sounded like a matter that should have been private. Treatment of employees by upper management on the sales floor should not be tolerated. Because of this I will now drive 7 minutes to a neighboring DG. This is sad...

Yesterday I went into the store for milk and bread. As I was walking to the checkout counter, there was a lady that was finishing up checking out. As she walked out with her bags, I went to the counter being the next to checkout. The manager (Nikki as I was told) was the one running the cash register. As I approached the counter, she looked at me, placed...

Dollar General digital coupons

I was shopping in Dollar general and wanted to load a couple of digital coupons that I saw advertised in the stores. I had preloaded several other coupons before entering the store. I tried to load but all I got was the spinning DG. When I approached the clerk , she said you have to go outside because we don’t have a connection in here. I went outside and tried for 10 minutes unsuccessfully. I re entered the store and ask the clerk if they had something they could do at checkout to give me the digital coupons since I was unable to connect. She said no because the company offering the coupons is not affiliated with Dollar General and they have no control over it. As a result, I left my full cart and exited the store. I had over $50 worth of stuff that was not sold solely because of a poor digital coupon system. You might want to review the coupon procedure. Also, I have seen digital coupons offered in the flyer but when I go to my account to load, they are not there.

Dollar General store number 403

Store manager refused to allow double bagging of items and packed bags to heavily! Three bags broke open caring them into the house damaging merchandise that was bough. Had to throw away purchased items due to damage (can of biscuits burst open all over the drive way ,juice container cracked open and split open and yogurts split damaging 2 of six! Manager claims dm told them they could not double bag due to flint mi stores being short bags! If managers can order properly for their stores it should not be the customers problem. Will be spreading the

word and telling others not to waste their money shopping there!

At Dollar General on Peach Orchard Road, address 3036, there are 3 female employees, and one of them is the manager. Lying about their sales. They put things high up, so customers can't reach them. When I saw a ladder and tried to use it, she snatched the ladder then refused to get the item for me. When I get to the register, I watched a lady ring up the...

Dollar General Store conditions

The store located at 8891 Nc Highway 14 Eden NC 27288 is deplorable! There is trash on the floors, receipts, boxes ever where. The refrigerator section has boxes in it full of unpacked items. The workers drinking in the store at the register and smoking in the doorway.

I am uncomfortable returning to the store. I didn't even want to get food for my dogs let alone food items for me.
