Charges
I shopped in Dollar General in Bethel NC on 2-7-22. I was charged more than shelf label for several items. Dr. Pepper 4 for 10. Charged 4.25 each. Baby butt paste 2.25. Charged 2.80. ONYX foot scrapper 5.00. Charged 6.00. This is all the time in this store. I am always told the price went up and I just let it be. But I am getting really tired of this. I was a retail manager for many years. Someone needs to get the price changes caught up. How hard is it to put up new shelf labels? Items are not priced so that would solve the problem.
Desired outcome: I just want the price labels to be correct. When I shop I expect to pay what the label is marked. I have been very patient with this issue for the last couple of years. Please fix it.
Store at 2530 Birch St. Eau Claire, WI
Smoking indoors. Usually I use this store for my shopping as it is the neatest one around. Not all messed up and empty half the time. Prepandemic even.
On 2.4.22 I went in to find a product, had to leave. I'm allergic to cigarette smoke, causes me significant breathing issues. The smoke odor was all over the space but strongest in the front. Seemingly coming from the office located behind the registers. It had to have been going on for quite some time due to the proliferation of the smell.
I understand it's been cold outside, but it seems that this issue goes along with many other complaints of this kind at DG. So I will take my business elsewhere.
Desired outcome: No one should have to be exposed to this. Its illegal to smoke in public space like that in our state. In order to correct this apparently long standing tolerance for this behavior, fines should be leveled at Corporate level.
Employees smoking at front door
Nearly every time I go in store # 14402, 21290 Hwy 603, Kiln,Ms at least one employee is standing right beside the front door smoking. There is no way to get in the store without inhaling smoke. I’m very allergic to any smoke, so this is not a good situation. It’s also just smelly around the front door all of the time. I’m sure they could go around the building with no parking area so as not to pollute the customers. It’s a very nice, recently remodeled store. Thank you for any help!
Desired outcome: I would like for there to be no smoking in front of the store or in the parking area.
Heartland Farms-Dollar General
Bought the Heartland Farms Munchy Sticks from Dollar General. Our 3 large dogs each had ONE. All three dogs had a rash by the next day. Ingredients are very misleading as I bought them because they only listed beefhide, porkhide, and rice flour as the primary ingredients. I'm not interested in a refund and I've never complained online about a product. This product should not be sold.
Desired outcome: Stop selling these
Attitude
Went to DG on Blake in Pine Bluff looking for a sale item. It wasn't properly marked, and when I tried to ask the cashier, she ignored me. I left there, went to the store on 270 in White Hall. They were out of the item I was looking for. I tried to ask THAT cashier when there might be another delivery, and SHE ignored me. Both were black, and I'm a white woman. I can't help but feel this was a racially motivated snub!

Does an employer have to pay me I got injured at work?
I was injured at work on nov 1st, i'm being evaluated and pending further testing. And a doctor has me remain out of work until testing is complete. The company I work for has not paid me for the whole time I have been out of work.
The company put me on schedule knowing I have to remain out of work. So went to work, so I won't get fired. So after working my head back to a hurting, and dizziness got worse since then. What happened falling object hit the back of my head and lost hearing in my right year. They are unfair to me, I have no income. I'm struggling and hurt bad. Just not my fault I got hurt, it's their ladder that fills on me.
Manager
I was in and bought 3 -$5.00 games and other stuff. Well, after I got home and discovered that I only had 2 games. I went back in and the girl that checked me out said she knows for sure that she gave it too me. That I probably dropped it somewhere, because it wasn't there. And that tuff for my luck, so I ask for manager and she said she was the manager...

This store in Deatsville al is complete garbage. Nothing was in place. Carts with merchandise rolled in every aisle. Shelves completely inadequate. Boxes of ice cream left in boxes placed in coolers. It was like walking into a hoarders house of crap.
Desired outcome: Shut it down or clean it up
Salesperson cheated me out of $10.00
I have shopped at Dollar Generals for many years and many states, today shopping at DG store #02508 In Guntersville, AL the sales girl shorted me $10, I know I gave her a $20 but she insisted it was a ten. She took her drawer to the back and came back saying it was a ten I gave her, how was I to know what transpired in the back room. She continued to say I gave her a ten. She even pulled up a video which I was able to watch but there was no proof that I gave her a ten. I know I gave her a twenty because when I took out my wallet to pay her, I had two one dollar bills and My bill was $5.64, I thought to myself, I hate to give her a twenty but besides the two ones that was all I had. Maybe she needed the ten more than I did but it is the principle of the transaction. First problem I have ever had with Dollar General, actually it was not with the store but with the Salesgirl and I believe her #is 9272.
Best Regards, Barbara Saulsbury
Service
Ok, So I visited Dollar General @4978 E. Busch Blvd Tampa, Fl, on January 8th 2022 @ about almost 4:30pm. Ok first off the customer service sucks, as always. The shelves are never stocked, looks like the store is going out of business. Then when I get up to the register, the manager in charge there was very rude and unfriendly. She was so busy concerned...

On Jan 1 at 8:53pm I let my wife out at door she needed 2 items so had to hurry. I parked & entered at 8:56 I didn't see her at register yet so I looked down a couple aisles.

Unethical behavior

I checked out all of my products and then scanned the hard copy coupon for $5.00 off. The register only took off $1.85. The other woman who was stocking product near the...

I have been going to our Dollar General here in Coalinga, Calif. And I can honestly say its filthy and dirty inside and a very unproductive store Manager that is so rude to the people that work for him. I was appalled that the courtesy of this manager has no concept of being professional in front of customers. If there is a issue with a worker he should pull them off the floor. And should worry about cleaning the inside of his store. Or bring in a new manager!
Desired outcome: Clean inside of the store

Read full complaintScanning of drivers license.
I visited my local Dollar General and was asked and then informed that they needed to scan my drivers license for age verification.
I refused and then explained why and the dangers of information collecting that can transpire by doing so.
They then refused to sell me my cigarettes which leads me to believe that what DG is doing is highly unethical and most likely introduced to actually collect any information they can from the bar code of the drivers license.
We are a small community and we communicate with each other on a daily basis. I personally will educate my community on why they should not allow this invasion of privacy to all that will listen and collect signatures to eventually come up with a cease and desist writ to present to Dollar General officially.
Desired outcome: Stop with the drivers license scanning immediately. It is unlawful and nefarious.
it’s not unlawful. don’t like it? don’t go there.
OP the rules and regulations for the sale of tobacco products differ state by state. it is though in majority of states and companies required you be 18 years old for tobacco and 21 for alcohol. i had some co workers back in 2015 when i worked for a summer camp that where only 15 years old that looked like they were in their 20s. there are also cases where a 21 year old looks young enough to be below 18 years old due to genetics. By asking for ID they are meeting the rules for being permitted to sell tobacco or alcohol in their store. they can only see your age when they scan it. not sure how useful that is unless they spent a long time coping down right in front of you all your ID info in plane sight.
