Dollar General Out of stock items

Countless times, meaning on a weekly basis, i have found that any inexpensive items I may be looking for are put of stock. If this was an occasional event no problem. But every single time regardless of how often I check, weekly, daily or otherwise.

I firmly believe that there isn’t a run on inexpensive denture adhesives or kitchen drain stoppers. Additionally I also adhere to the belief that this is done deliberately in order to push customers to purchase more expensive alternatives.

Just like the scanning cheats; this is attempt to force customers to pay more and fatten the bottom line

Desired outcome: Restock inexpensive items that are shown on app or website

Dollar General Rude service, not the first time

I was in the store today to only exchange a rug and pillow that I bought 4 days ago. I was going to have to pay 5 plus dollars extra. They would not do it. I did not have the receipt, but tags were still on them both. But they would in Batesville. Tell me what is wrong with the dollar general on hwy 6 across from the neighborhood that I live in which is Wildwood Subdivision. As you can look up this community, they fought for the location of this Dollar General. They signed all these petitions. As you can look up and see I didn't sign it. That would be me, Jeanne Hopper. Now, I have had the pleasure of seeing the blond manager and extremely unhappy with her job. All I wanted to do was exchange. I will be calling the district manager on Monday morning. Yes, I have been a manager before. As of now, I am a teacher. I have been the only one in this community that has supported this store. This is not the first time I have been treated ugly at this store and both times the blond manager has been there. I would like to hear from someone about this matter immediately. [protected] They asked me to walk around the store with the rug and pillow and I asked if I could just lay it down behind the counter and I said I would be right back. I don't know if this is why they were both rude to me but like I said I went to another store, and they said it was crazy. I know I

of another incident with this manager. I would like a phone call please.

Desired outcome: replace rude employees period. I have been in there and there are a lot of nice employees there.
