I've been in Dollar General stores in 3 states yesterday, Tennessee, Missouri, and Arkansas looking for a supplement ! Those shelves are never stocked, the little stock you have is in the wrong bin or it's on a palate blocking the isle!
In every store, boxes are piled In almost every isle, most of them blocking isles. It's like trying to walk a maze!
Someone in your organization should teach organizational skills, facings that are in the correct place and safety procedures to keep people from falling.

DG in Birch tree mo store #15530 management (Alton) will not give customers a receipt saying that the store is his and he will run it the way he see fit and if we can't get a receipt then we can not report the mess that the store is in. It all started with him having the cashiers marking out the survey numbers but when that didn't work he just decided we didn't get a receipt at all!
The women that work there are GREAT but that man needs to go. And what is the deal with him following all the women, not only is the store a complete mess you have a pervert running it! Not a happy customer and at church yesterday the subject was him and that store you have a problem.

The new supervisor that they have at Dollar General is NOT friendly AT ALL. The employees are outstanding, but SHE is so rude! I was so dissatisfied when I shopped there! (Store # 09694 in Homestead, PA.) And this is not the first time. I am to the point where I'd rather do my shopping somewhere else. Tess, on the other hand (the white manager) is a FANTASTIC asset to Dollar General! She really cared about the people and the community. I don't know WHY she hired this lady! She is not at all friendly, helpful or courteous. They really need to get rid of her and go back to having Tess!

I had a digital coupon for Right Guard deodorant which expires 10/9/21 for $2.00 off that did not come off at register. Also, there was no digital coupon for the Irish Spring body wash but there was a sign for a dollar off. I asked cashier and showed picture of deal but that did not come off my bill either. I know times are tough and the store is struggling to find employees, but I do clip my coupons and expect them to come off total. I don't have time to go back and forth disputing the total.
One more thing: have the $5 off coupon valid for the whole week instead of just Saturdays. They never unpack products and the isles are jammed with carts full of boxed products.

The buggies from the Dollar General Store (09724) rolled into the road and hit my truck. I called the police the officer made the statement that myself and the store manager should settle this. I contact the empolyer on duty she referred me to the store manager Leslie Etienne. She did a customer incident report. She scan and sent the incident form via STOREnet to Risk Management immediately. This was September 9, 2021 aprox 11:00 am, no one has notified me. The manager stated that someone would be contacting me. I went back to the store on Oct. 5, 2021 to see what was taking the process so long. The manager stated I needed to go to my insurance company. I left went to my insurance company immediately, the advised me that they couldn't do anything because I wasn't at fault. I then called the number on the incident report and spoke with someone. He took my social security number and stated that I wasn't in the system. I went back to the store the store manager re did the incident report called District Manager Rhonda Schabert. She told her to go to another store to scan the incident report because theirs didn't work.

I was walking through the dollar general store on 10/5/21 at 3:30 pm.and I found a store receipt from frito-lay laying on the floor.This receipt should not have been laying on the floor.It is a sales receipt that shows year to date sales, tax exemption number, The store number is 11852 here in Dayton oh.the employees name on the receipt is Raymond Williams.What should I do with this receipt?

This is a pretty new store, and a shame that it looks like it has been there for 10 years. You can never shop in the store unobstructed, there is always carts full of product, in the aisles. I understand on truck day it may be a little crowded, but it is 7 days a week. But the shelves are empty. I have seen many customers shopping off the carts to get what they want. I also understand staffing issues, but, this store just consistently looks bad. There is a family dollar downtown, that is always clean, they get the product up on the shelves, quickly, and the store is clean and the staff is friendly. I have stopped shopping at dollar general, and drive the extra miles to dollar store.

The complaint is on Carrie in your 16111 store in clarion. Complaint on her my wife was at your store (9/30/2021) approx. 7:30 P.M. and there was a line of 12 people and the other cashier yell for her help and she just looked up and kept on stocking shelves. including my wife and another girl walked out and both said they won't be back as long as she is their. I heard alot of people saying they will not go back as long as she is their. I fixed the problem by boycotting your store and will suggest to others to do the same. People i already talked to said they already did. BOYCOTT. when you try to take something back they say we don't take returns. More but to much to write. Your losing business. shopped their every day for something. no more. they never run both registers at once even if there are 2 employees their. She also needs an attitude adjustment. Sorry more then i was planning on sending to you but disgussed.

I just left the Dollar General at 4017 Yanceyville St. In Greensboro, NC. That is one of the nastiest stores I have ever been in. The floors have nasty spots all over them. They have never seen a mop. Trash pushed under the counters and the aisles sitting full of unopened merchandise while the shelves are empty. The stuff on the shelves is thrown up there "willy nilly". This store obviously needs new management. It is a disgrace to your company. Upper management needs to pay them a surprise visit. What a MESS. Just thought you'd like to know.

When I became legally blind and couldn't work anymore I had to find ways to cut corners and save money so I started couponing and at dg I could use the $5 off $25 with the digital coupons it made for great savings but for months now the shelfs have been bare, And when I say bare I mean it looks like there going out of business bare, this week there was no sale items with or without digital coupons no detergant, mens deordrant, or body wash, no tide or gain no purex, or softners, suave lotion, no Colgate, no Shea moisture and I checked surrounding towns and no one had anything they all was out of basically the same thing
that's just a few items, now you would think that If you was gonna have a sale on something you would make sure it's stocked, I don't think it's a COVID thing because FAMILY DOLLAR is always stocked Walmart is always stalked and target, could someone please tell me why dollar general can't fulfill there sales ad and honor there digital coupons it's really just a waste of time unless they can stock there stores and honor there coupons, I guess it's gonna be a family dollar day. Thanks for letting me vent

I have shopped at this DG since it opened & shop here multiple times every week. I utilize digital coupons & the $5 off coupons that come on my multiple receipts that I receive each week.
For the most part, the associates at this store are patient w/ my couponing & try to accommodate me when there are errors w/ the system.
I have had issues w/ associates in the past but chalked it up to the fact that everyone can have a bad day.
However, I had an experience w/ Paige tonite in the above referenced store that requires mention. She was obviously not wanting to be there & made this plainly obvious. She would not honor my physical $5 off coupon so I requested the order voided. She was extremely rude & offensive- to the point that the customer behind me came to my defense & stormed out of the store. She also had a cart full of merchandise.
Like I said, I understand people having a bad day & having spent most of my professional life in customer service, I definitely give the benefit of the doubt 99% of the time. This, however, was that 1% & totally unacceptable in a person who deals with the public.

Whenever we go to the store #20565 in Hollywood Alabama at 8 am. Whoever is suppose to open the store never gets there on time to do so. The clerk never showed up until 8:05 and we still had to wait for her to set up the cash register. She finally opened the door at 8:08. She never turned any of the lights on either so we got to shop in a dark store. We got to pick our way around stock left in the isles. This happened on [protected].
This wasn't the first time that it has happened to us and we just left before without getting in to the store to buy the things that we wanted.

I'm not sure if 6917 is the clerk's number or not. But it was the only number that I thought it was.

In the last few years I have consistently complained about the Batavia New York store. The store is filthy carts everywhere so you can't get down half the isles and nothing is stocked. I understand getting help is hard but Family Dollar down the road seems to have no problem keeping things stocked and cleaned. It just baffles me your store can't do this.

In Washington Illinois, store # 8252 assistance manager Amanda, on our 2nd year of COVID during a Mask Mandate. While in line Amanda was giving her Anti-Vaccine lecture to the women in front of me and she had a lot to say. All unfounded misinformation and of course she Amanda had NO MASK ON, showing all of us she did not care about any of us. Customers had Masks on signs everywhere to wear a mask Not 1 employee did Not 1. Amanda held up the line so long telling a women things, that as a RN of 44 yrs I know are FALSE. Is that the assistant managers' job ? We have a mask mandate due to the increased # of cases, we have 3 hospitals close by All have been on the news saying " Do Not Come here, Full of unvaccinated COVID patients and your asst manager does not allow other employees to wear them either, said 2 employees told me. Assist assit manager is a horrible person who let us all know she is a loudmouth spewing misinformation with NO MASK on so who knows Who will getr Sick. Unbelievable

I went in Dollar General tonight in Kilbourne, Louisiana and was trying to purchase 2 Amazon cards, one for 25$'s and one for a 100's with a debit card which I've been doing since the store opened with no problems but tonight the associate rudely told me in front of other customers she could do the 25$ card with a debit but I'd have to use cash for the 100$ card...which makes absolutely NO SENSE AT ALL...it's strange you see signs NO CASH BACK but they want cash, which debit is, for a card...say she'd get a flag and she wasn't losing her job for me to purchase a 100$ card...it's funny the other associates that I've purchased cards with debit are still working there...if it's a rule at Dollar General which I know for a fact Wal-Mart allows to be purchased with a debit card, so be it but I DO NOT APPRECIATE how rude she was to me in front of other customers, raising her voice for all to hear...
Thanks for you time!

There is not much to say there was mold in the bag of cat food. Today is 09/08/2021 I purchased the bag today... came home opened the bag... poured the food into a bucket... and chunks of mold were inside. .. This was my first time buying heartland farm products and it will be my last time buying the product. I purchase this at Dollar General I'm unsure where they have it elsewhere. Consumer beware

I can't seem to get correct advertising prices. Sunkist ad said $.85. They charged me $1.25.
I went for Tresemme hairspray. Price in shelf - $5. They charged me $6.00. She had to check and corrected. Other store gave me refund.
The Sunkist just happened. I will make sure they refund the difference. I sent the ad to my email for proof.
I'm little tired of this. They need to get correct prices in machines.
Another thing - not enough folks working to stock shelves. One at register and one stocking. Not fair to customers.
