I went into a local store to get some Fancy Feast cat food in the box (12 cans ). There was two girls working in the store. Back door wide open, no one in the back. NO manager on site. I waited in line and asked one of them to go into the back and see if they had any boxes of this cat food, and was told that as soon as the cashier was done with a current...

I want to mention that I have worked in Retail Management for nearly 40 years. I am retired but that doesn't stop me from rating my service! 1) Customer Neglect: Part of my purchase was that I had bought six glass bowls. While the employee was placing them in one bag, I heard that these bowls were being clanging against each other. I had mentioned that...

Dollar General cleanliness and organization of store is awful

The outside of the store in Sharon Tn looks as though it's one of the last stores standing after Armageddon, the manager sits in her car leaving the store fully unattended to smoke all day, the other employees have no clue most of the time where anything in the store is and act as though they themselves are lost as Easter eggs, the store inside is completely horrid, it needs some major attention it's pathetic the grounds outside look horrible trash everywhere nothing is picked up rarely ever mowed it's ridiculous

Dollar General cigarettes

Bought two packs of Misty Blue 120 today. Got to my car and noticed the cashier had placed the menthol instead of Blue in my bag. Went back in and told the cashier that I needed to exchange them for blue . She said she couldn't exchange them. Showed her the receipt, she still refused to exchange them. Talked to the store manager and she refused also.
I am a frequent shopper at Dollar General and feel I was treated wrongly. I would be afraid to shop anymore at a store that doesn't allow exchanges .

General Dollar is a poor place to shop. One has to look closely at the dates on any food products bought there. Sometimes the dates are expired.

Dollar General condition of stores

Dollar General has always been my "go-to" store, but I actually left my partially-filled basket and walked out today. The three stores near me leave boxes and carts for stocking in the aisles, but they don't stock, and you can no longer even push your cart down a single aisle because they are almost totally blocked. Two other customers walked out with me today. This applies to the newer store on East Berry St., and the two stores on Mansfield Highway in Fort Worth, TX. You're losing customers because of this, and even though I've always been one of your most faithful customers, today was the last straw. I'll be going elsewhere in the future.

Dollar General receipt

I purchased 18 bottles of zero lemon lime Gatorade from the above store. I buy all Gatorade from your stores as your company offers the Gatorade sports codes. I travel 20 to 25 miles each way to 3 of your stores not only for the above reason but your stores most always have the product. When I received my receipt I couldn't read anything printed on it. I ask the cashier if there was a way to make me another copy as I couldn't read that one. She ask I would assume the manager and I was told in not so much of a nice way there was nothing that could be done about it. I ask you can't print a copy and was told again there was nothing that could be done. There should be a way to reprint receipts if one doesn't print. I lost all the points plus I am not sure I will shop at that location again.

Dollar General the store is a mess, the floors are dirty. no carriages

I use this store at least once a week. It is the dirtiest store, the supplies are left in the ailses in the carriages, so the shoppers have no carriage. The floors look like they have never been washed.

I am sure you need to make a visit to this store and see that someone is not doing their job. If the state comes in I am sure they will close the store.

I visited this Dollar General today. I shopped for 40 minutes in the store. When I went to checkout the line was extremely long and only one cashier was waiting on people in line. I had a $5 coupon to use on my order. When I got to the register to use my coupon the cashier could not scan it and an older gray-haired lady with a long ponytail tried to help...

To Dollar Store Corporate Management, The outside perimeter of this store is in extremely poor condition as it relates to the parking lot, overall maintenance around the building, landscaping, overgrown grass, untrimmed shrubbery along with paper trash and debris. The property is totally unkept and a poor reflection upon both Pineview and Madden Hill...

The parking lot and entrance to this store is filthy... trash on the ground always. Paper, cups, etc. I've never once seen it clean. In the store it's hard to move around. There are always bins in the way that need unpacking. At times I have to move heavy bins to get what I need. Hire more people in these stores and maybe the employees can do a better...

Every visit I've always been treated kind and with respect and excellent service. However, we have had a problem with an employee Zack. It's been a few months since the first altercation with...

Dollar General no one at register

I was at your store on victory dr. I was at the register for a couple of minutes. I'm not complaining about that, it's just the cashier said that I should have rung a bell which I did not know. I've been to a lot of dollar generals, I've even worked at one a couple of years ago. I've never heard someone having to ring a bell.I thought that the cashier is supposed to keep an eye on the register and always be in the view of the register. She acted like it was my fault that I didnt know, at other Dollar Generals you dont have to ring a bell.

I am a senior that rides a bus and frequents your stores. The cigarette policy of requiring even elderly to show ID is ridiculous. I was embarrassed and ridiculed the other day when I forgot my ID. Because it would have meant going home and taking a bus back again. I simply did not have the strength to do so. I had to ask someone else to buy them for me. Shame on your unfair policies. I will never shop your stores again.

Dollar General parking lot lighting

I live in Topeka KS and shop at the location on 10th St.
The management has made the choice to have ALL lights out in the parking lot. I should not have to tell you but the parking lot is very very dark. Dollar General has made the decision that saving electricity dollars is more important than customer safety. A person can fall, be robbed, get hit by a car, etc., etc. Your corporation will be responsible when there is a situation, as you should be. Corporate greed is disgusting and endangering customers for the almighty dollar is a shameful act. You deserve every lawsuit that will come from this.

Dollar General staff

Ok, I want complain for my mom in-law. She has to much heart to tell anyone what went on in DOLLAR GENERAL A1A, Cresent Beach. I went up yesterday to apply the onsite hiring interview. So, it was not to surprising, The manager was working on register and boyfriend was hovering over the gate, He is up there more than he should...overnights, anytime no new management. Recovery, security interacts with customers.Not sure why hes not on payroll..
As for the main issue .The reason I decided not to go in...My Mom in-law said she was leaving for health reasons but could work a few hours a week...Reply was noone is going to tell her where or when they can work anymore and Shop at different dg or shes going to tresspass her. She lives 2 minutes away from that store.

I do know one thing the way she puts them down, punishes them by their schedules.Her working as 2 people getting extra done when the rest of them struggle to keep up as one( they dont have boyfriend help)..Thank goodness my mom doesn't work there anymore.
