Dollar General

That company caused my wife and I some major stress and uncalled for bs. Wrongfully accused us of stealing.. We went in that store almost daily or even more spending our money! Thry told us we are not allowed back on the property thry said the cops told them it would be considered trespassing.. Guess what?! We asked the cop and the name she gave wasn't even the cop on the call that day lol no lie. He said he has no rigjt to tell us that. There wasn't even any charges filed cause the cop reviewed the tape and said my wife clearly picked a cheap Trac phone up off end of checkout counter thinking it was hers. Ten dollar phone. Exact same! I said.. Oh crap baby, you left your phone laying there.. It was no secret.. No sneaking.. It was an innocent mistake and the police said that was obvious. Well the cashier at that time was is also asst. Manager and she still sticks to her story of us being thieves. Wow.. Just wow! Unbelievable.. Anyway, she also told the cop that we are not allowed back in the store ever again.. Funny cause she told her boss the cop (wrong cop.. Mind you.. That wasn't even there at all lol) told her.. We are not allowed back. Hahaha friggin unreal. We are a married lesbian couple.. This store is up the street from us in a very small town.. Newell, WV. It caused the cops to later show up at my wife's place of employment.. In front if several people.. Her name being broadcasted over the police scanner that my parents listen to and was asking us about. Our neighbors told us that the police were beating in their doors asking if they knew my wife and where she lives, also her whereabouts.. Even told the one woman "don't lie to me" as if she is a frigging hardened criminal! WTH?! She has no record of any sort! And certainly no theft charges against her in her lifetime my lawd! It just keeps getting better and better all darn day, ya know! I get home later on.. My mailbox is wide open.. No joke! . Mail messed up inside. Funny how at the end of my driveway the officer was hounding and treating to arrest if not told info of my wife's whereabouts as if she just killed someone in a public place with several witnesses.. Lmao. Pretty sure that officer decided he'd commit a federal offense and look to see if her name was on the mail inside the box matching the address. I took a picture to text to a couple of people because I was just so shocked over all of these events unfolding alllll say long.. All over a simple mistake.. We gave the phone back.. Never turned it off or altered anything.. We didn't steal a darn cheapy ten dollar Trac phone that my wife already owns lol get real! I'm thinking either this dg lady is either a mentally ill fruitloop. Or a homophobe! Either way.. She needs to lose her job! Oh yeah.. We keep calling to infirm her boss that the cop never told her we couldn't go there ever again. No one will answer.. It rings once and goes right to voice-mail every day now during business hours.. I swear to you!

i was let go today because i refused to work nights which isnt fair do to someothers never worked a night since they started i was told if i gave up my postionas 3rd key it would be fine i guess not due to now i have no job and was told i had to remove myself from the property i didnt do anything wrong. Then to here that my boss heather beardsley was plotting with the other employees what todo about this whole thing to top it all off she came in on her day off in the middle of her shift todo this when i was giving the postion of 3rd key i was garented 30hrs i only get 10hrs

I have been with Dollar General for going four years I started out at as temporary setting a store up in north carolina i was hired on as permanant and worked my way up from a cashier to an asst. manager but i had a manager who knew what it meant for someone to work hard and get compensated for it. I moved to Iowa about nine months ago and my old manager put in a word for me and i got my own store the first month or two i spent cleaning it up and getting it to where it was supposed to be, Once i got into the store i found out that this store had went through a few managers before me so got to wondering if it was the ones over the manager or the employess driving the managers out i realized it was a little of both. About a month and a half i approached a few of them to make sure they were alright working with a gay person they seemed fine with it. I'm a gay woman and proud of it, but when evryone found out i was gay trouble started i got suspended once for saying damn i got suspended again for a statement that was wrote up by one of the employees which was told to me by employee that she only wrote what the district manager told her to write, went back then an employee went and wrote a statement because she was mad at me because her hours got cut they were cut because payroll was cut but seems corporate wants to listen to petty part time emloyees or a district manager that is trying to run you out. I was terminated yesterday for not following company policy and again all started when they found out i was gay

dear sirs, I recently applied for a job at your company and took the test and PASSED. The manager at this particular store denied me a job due to personal choices. She claimed that I did'nt pass the test in which I later found out was a lie. Her name is Dusty and I THINK SHE SHOULD BE TERMINATED. I have 20 years experience in retail and I believe that I have been discriminated against. FURTHER ACTION SHALL TAKE PLACE AGAINST THIS PARTICULAR STORE.

I complained that only men were being promoted and i wasnt getting a chance to be considered. I was fired a week later.

i fully understand every one of these, i was a store manager, and i walked... they treat managers and employees like pure ###. after i walked of course i was put in non rehire status. but if the company wouldnt accuse employees of stealing all the time.too many voids, they stealing, low baskets, they stealing etc... i respected my employees and felt sorry for them, they work their ### off, not only being cashiers, but stocking and everything in between. and the district managers treat the managers like dogs. i know i worked 60 to 80 hours a week in my store, and and as long as you got your district manager his or her bonuses, you was awesome, but god forbid if you didnt do something right, they give store little hours to work with, cashiers has bills to pay also, they cant live on a 10 hour a week job, just because corp, dont want to spend the money, or making them work in stores with none or little air.. i couldnt take it no more as a manager and seeing all of this. right now im involved in a law suit against dollar general. over pay and people working way over 48 hours as managers and not being paid for it. i think all the higher ups should be made to work in one of these stores to see what it is like as employees. i bet they would change their attitudes, but it is also up to employees to use the open door policy, , go over their heads, take your fight higher. it is your right to do that, dont be scared of the ones over you. and this comes from a ex manager... give them hell dg employees...

The Company wide policy is that SHRINK is caused by EMPLOYEES. Just ask anyone who has been through the "Shrink Class". So basically the Corporate Office calls all its 1st line employees and Managers thieves. Let that sink in. This is their Corporate Viewpoint. This is what they think of their employees. If there is shrink in a store, it must be the employees doing it. Nice huh? Now lets look a little further into this. Keep in mind this has been the viewpoint of the Corporation for many many years. Lets look at their INVENTORY CONTROL system. OR Better yet their overall LACK OF AN INVENTORY CONTROL SYSTEM. For many years, they based their store inventory figures on what the WHAREHOUSE SAID THEY SHIPPED THEM, less the amount sold as reported from the stores registers to the home office. In a perfect world, this works some of the time, but IS FAR FROM ACCURATE. In the last few years they have tried to PIECEMEAL IMPLEMENT an inventory control system that is STILL BASED UPON WHAT THE WHAREHOUSE SAYS THEY SHIPPED TO THE STORE. Think about that. "What the Warehouse Said they shipped to the store" NOT "What the store received from the Warehouse" Anyone else see an inherent problem with the way they are still doing things? The Store Managers and employees are ARE NOT GIVEN ANY CONTROL OVER verification of what comes into the store from the warehouse, but yet they are the first ones accused of stealing when there is shrinkage. WTF? This is just pain WRONG. You can not hold a set of employees responsible for another set of employees possible actions or in-actions, or for that matter the shipping company and their personnel. As long as there is a doubt as to whether a store is actually receiving the inventory it is responsible for, NO ONE has the right to point a finger of accusation at these people. BTW, DOLLAR GENERAL HOME OFFICE - just out of morbid curiosity, how much is your average SHRINK PERCENTAGE on products that have to be scanned in from vendors by a Store Manager or Assistant? Yeah, I bet its way lower than what comes out of your friggin Warehouse. Think about it. EVEN BETTER FIX IT. And while your fixing it, think of how many employees lives you've effected with this shoddy half assed approach to INVENTORY CONTROL.

While if she told you you failed a drug test and you didn't, I don't support her actions. But if she said you just failed the application process, then you must realize that she can deny you employment for almost any reason. The field for retail is flooded right now with a lot of over-qualified people.

I know exactly what you are talking about. I am an assistant manager and I have worked for the company for five years. I never worked for a company who do not give a damn about their employees. They are always accusing us of stealing their merchandise, when they let the whole city come in and get what they want. The work load is too heavy for the amount of payroll hours that they give out. I feel that a company should stand by their employees, not always accuse them of stealing. Maybe if they were to treat them better they wouldn't have to accuse us of stealing. Dollar General only cares about the money they make. They have taken all of our holidays except for Christmas and they have also pushed closing time on x-mas eve from six o'clock to eight o'clock. Even Wal-Mart closes at six on X-mas Eve! Even with the basket sizes. I work in an area that is mostly shopped by the people in the neighborhood. Most of the time they are buying household items that are only dollar items, so you can not make people spend what they do not want to spend. Even referring to the literacy fund. If the same people are shopping in your store everyday, they are not going to give their change, everyday. I don't knock the literacy fund, but if you're a multimillion dollar corporation like DG, then why don't you all donate money to different schools? Why make people spend money in your store and expect you to donate your change too. And they also have a $20 a day minimum. How do you feel that you are going to make $20 a day? A donation is what it is a donation no matter how much it is. Also this company has a very bad turnover rate. Since I have been employed with them, I have seen so many people come and go. I think they really need to re-evaluate things. The corporate people don't know too much about working in a store because they get to sit behind a desk. If they could only come in the stores and work, they would understand.

My girlfriend, who is African American, works at the local Dollar General and frequently complains to me about her manager, who sometimes calls her VERY inappropriate names and makes racist remarks all the time, but sometimes the manager will flirt with her, and make her very uncomfortable. One time, my girlfriend texted me to go down there because he was acting strange towards her. I went to the store and he appeared to be high on some sort of drugs, I proceeded to threaten to kick his a** for being mean to my girlfriend and being racist. Later that week my girlfriend quit her job at Dollar General.

The Woman manager at D.G. On Shiloh rd. and wells highway in Seneca S.C. Is prejudiced and profiles people by the way they look, I am an American Indian and she called me a Mexican to my face and accused me of stealing, and told me she watches the video cameras everytime i come in but NEVER could find a reason to ban me. I am a very quiet keep to myself polite person that minds my own business. I have NEVER done anything to make this manager hate me or want to ban me. Until one day, this manager got into my and my husbands personal business, and pulled him into the back and told him abunch of bad things about me all untrue, about an argument between my husband and i. This woman stuck her nose in and asked my husband ( whom was mad at me and she said i wish I could ban her for something, but I can get anything on her, and told him how she watches me on camera EVERYTIME I come in ... From that my husband told her something i had told him that had happen to me years ago when I was about 16 years old, that i am bad about picking up pens and lighters and forgetting i have them ( even at home, work etc) and he told her that I had stolen a pen at target. Completely by accident i promise you. And she banned me for that i guess. I still don't understand what gives this manager the right to racially insult me by calling me a maxi can, I told her i wAs not Mexican but Indian, her reply was well, "what's the diffrence, u all steal. Also i went in to ask her why I was banned and she used alot of profanity and told me to leave or she would call the police, also what gives her the right to pull MY HUSBAND into the back for employees only area, and question him about my personal life. I have been so hurt and insulted by this manager Angie? That it has scared me...I don't know if she had a thing for my husband (which it seems so) as he was allowed to shop there but I was not. This Angie needs to be turned in. Oh also, I heard her tell one of her workers, to " Watch that ###" she whispered it, not knowing i was behind her. This woman does not need to be in a management position, as she is running GOOD PAYING CUSTOMERS off ! No matter what color the skin, our money is green, and I used to spend $50 to $75 dollars a day in there, as it is the only dollar store near me, also i believe Dollar General management NEEDS TO KNOW, what's going on in their stores, before people like Angie gets them sued for racial discrimination. As it stands she has banned me, my husband and 9 other we know of. She instigates with personal information, Is VERY RUDE, and when u say something back, she bans you... I think Dollar General needs to know about her banning and discriminating against people of color. Please talk to her about lifting the ban, As i have decided to get an attorney to look into this matter, i live I block from DG and i cannot even shop there is very rediculous, not to mention humiliating to me being a 50 yr old woman that has to drive 15 miles to Walmart to get a loaf of bread...it's just rediculous and im fed up with this woman. We live in a small town and everybody in Seneca hates shopping at the SHILOH Rd. Dollar General because of this Manager woman named Angie (i think) because she doesn't wear a name tag

Yesterday, on March 11, 2015, my wife followed me into a Dollar General on Shiloh Road in Seneca, SC. My wife was banned fron there years ago for what amounts to the female store manager dislikes her race (native american). My wife asked to be allowed back in, as I go in an spend 100-250 usd a week there. Upon leaving, I was pulled into the middle of it. Finally, the manager told me, You Dont Have To Come Here Either! I was pissed! I cursed her out and left. Dollar General, look for our lawsuit soon! garyls68@yahoo.com.

i too was a manager for good old d.g. i was injured on the job, got fired, now i am splat inthe middle of a workers comp. case...they are terrible towork for. but, i guess i should thank them for 1 thing, if i wasn't injured and they didn't fire me because of it, then i would not have gone back to schhol to get my bachelors...

I"m so sorry to hear that. I've heard of several cases of people being injured and good ol' DG not doing a darn thing for them. Sadly I work there, for lack of anything else. But I don't like it.

I worked for dollar general, and they fired me last week, for takeing a break and looking at an old magazine.I was fired the next day, not only did i have a 45 minute drive there but they let me drive there, clock in and then fire me. Dollar General is crap and they do treat there management like ###. I dont think its right but i do believe they did me a favor, that place is a headache. It makes you sick to your stomache. Rural Hall, NC

I forgot my email, feel free to contact me at jeangreeno2010@yahoo.com

Thanks again

Amazing? I was a DG manager for over 6 years. I have been doing payroll the exact same way the entire time. I filed a complaint with the EEOC as well and guess what? Yep I was fired for payroll edits within 3 days of DG receiving my EEOC complaint. Furthermore, I had video's in my store and could prove that the payroll edits were valid edits. Guess what again? they fired me and erased the video... Go figure. I have filed a lawsuit in Michigan, if I win I am sure it will give presedence in your state. If you would like to send me a statement so that my chances would improve in court please do, Just be honest, I know I have always been but with DG most of the time, truth really doesn't matter...

brenda,
payroll editing is sometimes a have too. when employees dont clock in or out. i dont know what thier problem is but i had a girl tht was working a non dollar general person in the store and they didnt fire her. i had proof i burned a cd and got statements. but to no good. now i dont have a job. something has to be done. they cant go on treating people like this.

i had the same thing happen to me fired for payroll editing no training didn' e t even know what i was doing was wrong my old manager is doing the same thing to this day why is he still employed .Brenda Polidori store 10237 Gloversville N.y

Hello, i wasnt fired for payroll edits, but i had a dm who wanted to get rid of me after a stay in the hospital. she told another store manager that she was going to find a way to get rid of me. and she did. i honored a sale price. she got me disqualified from unemployment saying she had talked to me about the situation and had warned me not to do the transaction and i never even told her about the transaction or when it was done. it flagged on emt because it was a large order. my problem is no training and no guidance. could you write me a letter stating about your complaints with no guidance no time to sat and read sop cause of cutting hours. tednjane@embarqmail.com. the store manager that kept me informed still works for her and dont want her name involved. i also signed the lawsuit paperwork but it was after i was terminated. dollar general is full of vindictive dm and others who eventually are going to get shoved out anyways even if they follow policy and procedures. thanks jane

Dollar General doesn't care about their employees. Injuries happen all the time and do not get reported. Key holders are forced to remain on Dollar General property during unpaid meal breaks, as well as, work while off the clock because there is no other way and Dollar General has yet to fix the problem.

This is horrifying. Have you taken your complaint higher up? I don't know...maybe like a work commision office of some sort., a lawyer that specializes in worker's compensation or have a consultation with a lawyer to see if you have grounds to sue the B--tards. Many companies get away with such things because they know that most employess will live with unfair treatment that is done to them. Research...find out what your rights are and fight back...they are counting on you not fighting back at all. That's how many companies get away with this sort of thing all the time.

I am one who never fought back but, last year we had a flood because of faulty pipes in my apartment. We had to spend close to $1000.00 to stay at a motel for a week because the management refused to put us up in one of the empty apartments until repairs were done in our apartment. Someone told me this happens because no one makes a fuss...so I did. I called and wrote to the company that owned the apartment complex and told them what was happening and how I knew what my righte were and would like to settle this without having to go to claims court but, would do so if I did not get my problem resolved. The very next day I got a letter telling me that they were waiving rent and water for the month. I did not get my money back but, all my bills were paid by them for the amount of the 1000.00 I spent on hotel and food costs.

Companies should really take care of their employees better. Good employee care reaps it's rewards in, better attendance, willingness to help and all around good work attitude.

I really think you should take this higher. This type of treatment is appalling to say the least!

Just my 2 cents worth.

I'm a Asst. Manager and we would have called the cops. I NEVER accuse anyone of stealing unless I see it with my eyes. Not all Dollar General's are like that. Ours is like a family. with our customers. Get them out. Dollar General has strict rules and DO NOT put up with people being rude to customers. So sorry this happened.

Thank you Zar, the truth comes out.

I agree with the OP, they do treat employees unfairly, but surely as the mother of the employee your opinion is biased. Also if I found out my mother/father wrote a letter to my place of work I would be embarassed.

I don't know which Dollar General mami2004 has been working at, but they do tend to treat their employees badly. I have worked there for 3 years before I quit. As for those saying that her boyfriend was not allowed inside after closing you are correct. It clearly states this in the employee handbook that family members are not allowed inside the store after the store is closed and if they are allowed in it can lead to displinary action. This is the same handbook given to all the stores so even before you say it, this rule applies to your store Mami. Perhaps you should have read the hand book they gave you when you were hired.

Judging from the comment that you left Mami2004, perhaps it is your rudeness and attitude which got you fired?

"I WASNT REPLYING TO YOU ANYWAYS ITS NOT YOUR ARTICLE! I DIDNT GET A BRAKE BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOUR GOING THRU MENAPAUSE! GERT OVER YOURSELF!"

Who cares whose article it is, this is not your article yet you choose to reply. Irish and everyone has every right to reply as you do. Just because they don't share your opinion does not give you a right to tell them that they can't post since this is not their article.

" 24 yearls old. i wasnt rude until she got nasty with me. i"
That is the same excuse that five year olds use. But instead of saying "she started it" "she did it first" so basically you are no better than her.

Also just because you don't know about the no customers after store closes does not mean you did nothing wrong. Try telling a police officer you did not know what you did was illegal when he arrests you. Won't allow that excuse and that won't stand in court. You claim that you are 24 years old but you don't act that way.

Just so you know most companies don't allow customers after the store closes. Perhaps if you were a more decent person they would have let it slide, but my guess is that you are as rude as you are online when you are face to face with real people. They used that as an excuse to fire you. They obviously fired you for a reason, you may not be honest about the real reason, but I am sure they gave you a reason. You claim that you have a new job and that makes you a better person than you were before. If this is true than you must have been a real terrible person since your improved self is not that good of a person. However I doubt from your attitude that you are a better person just by reading your rude response. You may find my response rude, well sometimes the truth needs to be told that way and sometings the truth hurts.

if she wasnt replying to me why did she say mami2004 thats my screen name? or isnt it?

okay im 24 yearls old. i wasnt rude until she got nasty with me. i didnt pay attention to her age for real.

mateers fact irish I DID IN FACT HAVE MY DRIVERS LICENSE MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP. AND HE WAS ALLOWED IN THE STORE! IM A SECURITY OFFICER NOW SO IT IS BETTER.. YOU ARE KIND OF RUDE BY THE WAY KEEP YOUR NASTY COMMENTS TO YOURSELF I WASNT REPLYING TO YOU ANYWAYS ITS NOT YOUR ARTICLE! I DIDNT GET A BRAKE BUT IT LOOKS LIKE YOUR GOING THRU MENAPAUSE! GERT OVER YOURSELF!

Iworked at dollar general for 2 years as an assistant manager and it was really really bad they only paid me $6.25 an hours that was pretty low of dollar general. I locked up the store and my friend cane to pick me up because i didnt have a car. so i let him in because this dollar general was in a bad area and they fired me the next day. it was better for me because i didnt do anything wrong. But it just made me a better person and i love my new job!

I went into D.G. a couple of times and there's this worker who is very rude in Woodworth, LA. She leaves you waiting, she does not speak to the customers when you enter, and she pokes you in the hand to hand you your change back without saying thank you. I complained to the manager but this situation has not changed. I want to know how to report her to the district manager or whom every, would do something about this problem. Because if she does not want to work, then step down from her position and allow someone else to have the job that needs to work and knows how to handle the public with a smile, knowing that without the customers she does not have a check coming in. Thank you Jim,

This sounds just like the problem in the Helena, Alabama store.So called assistant mgr makes her own schedule at one point worked about 3 days in 6 weeks.When Janice returned all she did was tell everybody how bad the store was.My wife has worked for DG for about 10 yrs. but as of tomorrow THANK THE LORD she's letting them have it all.Even contacted DM and he must be DEAF, DUMB AND BLIND.IT'S ALL YOURS (WITCH-JANICE)

he could have been fired for giving you a discontinued product. would you like to see that happen just so you can get a crappy shirt

Worked for them back in the 90's. Idiots run the chain, idiots work in the chain. Should change the name to Idiots General.

You're still the idiot.

PAPER PLATES ARE NOT A HUGE PURCHASE. WHOS THE IDIOT NOW .DUH PAPER PLATES.$2.75 YOU LOOK STUPID .REALY

Your spelling errors and capitalization of the whole paragraph makes me laugh. Maybe next time you go grocery shopping, we all know you were doing that, go to a grocery store or wholesale store. Dollar Stores are not meant for huge purchases. I worked at one for a year. I know the exact customer that you are. You're the lady that yelled at me because the sign in back said "All Chicken $1.50" and i had to charge you $2.00 for the extra large bag. The managers are always mean there. They have no real bosses to answer to themselves to they make up the rules as they go on. You're an idiot. Stop grocery shopping in a dollar store.

By the way a "Dollar General" shouldn't be in the airlines section.

EVERYONE HAS RIGHTS. YOU NEED TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION OR THE HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION.

Look up your state laws about businesses - some states do not need to have a "right to fire" policy. I live in Arizona and we do not have a "right to fire" policy. That gives any company any right to pay you what they want (even if under minimum wage) and gives them the rights to fire you with or without a notice of why they fired you. I would assume given the example you've given this rule would also apply to your state.

Call the corporate office. Also you can ask to talk to the regional manager, where the store is located. I would also call labor relations in your state. Believe me Dollar General makes a lot of mistakes. I use to be a manager at one.

Does everyone who applies for a job get a hiring package, fill out a w4 and direct deposit information and take a drug test all before they are even hired? This is what my daughter is being told three weeks after filling out the hiring package. Now the manager is saying she was not hired even after she was told to come in for training. They put off the training for 2 weeks and now she finds out she isn't hired. I can't believe the company would pay for a drug test for everyone that applies for a job because that's what the manager is telling her. The manager said the DM didn't want her to hire my daughter because she was seasonal hel which the manager knew this information at the time she was "hired". Would have been nice to know this before buying uniforms for her to wear and turning down other jobs that have since been filled. Not a bet impressed with this outfit. I have never heard of such disrespect towards employees. She was happy to work there.

my complaint comes out of effingham illinois. i jus quit dollar general cuz of my MG... when i was hired on i told him i could only work days cuz i have only one car and my husband works 7pm to 7am and he told me that was fine and i said i would work a night shift if someone called in ... he continuously scheduled me nights every week and i had to figure out somehow to be there and to get home... i live bout 20 mins outside of town so it was hard... but he can leave when ever he wants cuz he is on salary and he dose all the time and jus dosnt seem to care... he works everyone else like dogs cuz he can and somehow he gets away with it... i can only hope that the new GM can see what i have seen in the 3 months i was there. if every DG employee did things the way he dose there would be no one to work there

Back in the 90's, I had a DG dist mgr tell me Wal mart was behind the times when he interviewed me in GA .After I stopped laughing, I got hired by another company. Later DG was invesigated by the SEC for cooking the books to make their stock look more favorable to the stock market. This company is for someone looking for temp employement. Hardly anybody retires with them. DG doesn't want you to. LOL

My complaint is about the dollar general store in Henderson la. store number 847 there are the most rudes cashier every to work in this store.If you are a routine customer they seem to look down on you which I am, this was the final straw for me on Aug.09, 2011 I went in to return an item the cashier told me I needed my receipt, which I did not have, I only wanted the same item I previously brought but just in a different color, the price was the same.She refuse to accept my item than went get the manager which she had a chance to counsel in the back before they came to the front.The manager when on an agree with the cashier. I than left there store and went to a different dollar general which accepted my item, then I ask them about there return policy and she stated without a receipt you can get something else in the store are a gift card.So I explain what happen at the other store she then advice me that it seems to be a personal matter against me and that cashier that giving me a hard time, becauxse she said it is really up to the manager to agree for the return and clearly the cashier that does not like me got to the manager.What makes this so inconvenient is that this dollar general is 2 miles from my house so now on I will have to travel 7 miles to the nearest family dollar store.

Hi my name is Rosemary Rankin and I do not have a complaint but a praise.I would like to say I live in Sayre, Ok and I take my buissiness to Dollar General Store in Elk City, Ok store #03239 cause the manager I thank her name is Gillian is so sweet and freindly needless to say very helpful.I hope ya'll will never conceder to get reid of her are she nevers quites I love to go when she is there.

Thank You For Your Time

my problem is with Flora, MS Dollar general address 117 Progress Drive P.o. Box 288 phone number601 879 8843. i am a I very displeased customer and will choose Frde instead of Dollar General from now on. I had fone on Dollar general website to print coupons the night before i shopped and used my ink and paper which cost money to print coupons. And little to my knowledge that when i went to the register they would NOT accept their own coupons even though i got them from their website! i was furious! i then left the store and called back to talk with the manager and he told me over the phone as well that even though they say dollar general and i printed them from their webste and the register scanned the dcoupons they had to remove it because they don't accept internet coupons from their website! my question is why do they even have the option online at all. I will not spend my money there anymore! i am going all the way to the top with this i am going to call corporate until i get answers. wsre have familes out here struggling to make ends meet and trying to save a buck on items that offer coupons so we can pay for this high rising priced gas and they kick you in the butt!

ive ran into same problem at the gaston, south carolina.store

my complaint is against store manger in gaston south carolina.she is never in the store the other girles, working, cant do a return without suprv permission.this causes jam at checkout .i have had to leave a buggy fill of merchadise more than once..i have been told, by some of her co-workers that she goes home on booty-calls with various delivery drivers..that puts, , stuff out back door for friends to pick up. wish dollar general would do something about this manager, she is driving customers away

SHE SHOULD FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE HUMAN RIGHTS COMMISSION OR THE EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION AND THE LABOR BOARD.

your not kidding... i was terminated for same kind of thing

well you know the change to being an openly traded stock does have that effect on retailers ruralshopper.

I have shopped at Dollar General for 40 years. I live in a small town/rural area. It used to be a store that would save you money. Not any more. They continue to jack up the prices and put the raised price in such small font that many do not notice until they pay the bill. I have also noticed that the food items that are there for the Mexican patrons are way over priced. The Dollar Store should not gouge the migrant workers.

Their customer service is almost a thing of the past it seems. Today I stopped at the dollar store and spent about $26.00. I had intended to ask for change $1.00 in quarters for the news paper machine. I went back inside, stood in line a long time and they refused to give me change, saying that I had to make a purchase. I already had told the cashier that I just made a purchase. If I wanted to get change I would have to make another purchase.

I think that I will save money if I shop at Fred's. It seems that Dollar General is pricing themselves out of the money saving category. Dollar Tree stores have many of the same items and only cost one dollar per item.

Dollar General has many, many stores and they are big enough to still offer money saving deals on all of their items. They have just gotten greedy.
