Dollar General Hamburger buns

I bought a pack of Clover Valley hamburger buns on 07/19/2023, with the best if used by JUL [protected]:45 3, and these buns are so horrible. Stale, tops crumbling off, kinda stiff and aren't worth sh&*! I purchased them from a dollar general in mayfield ky, Hwy 303 to be exact...just when I thought that clover valley may be almost equivalent to other name brands they go and put out some crap like this, low quality and most definitely overpriced for the product period! Shame on you~

Desired outcome: I would like my money back

Dollar General Classic Roast Coffee

The coffee doesn’t expire until Sept of 2023 yet when I opened it it smelled stale. I made one cup of coffee with it and it was terrible. It tasted as stale as it smelled. I reached out to Dollar General with my complaint. They requested UPC code, where bought, etc. I sent back all that information and nothing. That was almost 2 months ago. I’ve repeatedly tried to contact the company with no response. I just want my money back.

Desired outcome: Reimburse me for the cost of the can of coffee

I went yet again to a Dollar General in Hendersonville and I remembered to take in my coupon. I spent way over the required amount, there was no expiration date and it could be used any day of the week. I handed it to the cashier/manager and before he looked at it “said it wasn’t good - only on Saturday.” I said the coupon doesn’t say Sat. only. He ignored...

Employees have 2 chairs and a table set up on the sidewalk that customers use to get from parking lot to door of store. They sat with their legs out and smoking cigerattes so the customers have to walk over their feet and through the smoke to get to the door or they have to step out in the parking lot to avoid this. I have asked the manager a couple of...

On this day Friday July 7,2023 I was terminated from my management position wrongfully. My boyfriend is a great guy and fixed my fencing around my trash dumpster so that not only would it look nice but also because when the dumpster people would come diving you couldn’t see the disgusting mess they left. That was to benefit the company. Also he came in to...

I normally shop at the dollar general on Kirk Rd in Austintown Ohio and most of the staff that works there are great. Today I shopped there and there was a new lady working that had a horrible attitude. She was shelving boxes in the isles and tossing items with such rag. Maybe she was having a horrible day. Thats not good customer service to act with such rage in front of the customers.

My name is Lacey. In the last month or so, my job at dollar general #22261, has been very up and down and wild. In the first week of june, our store shut down for 3 days because our store manager, both of the assistant managers, and a couple key holders walked out because the district manager was ignoring the issues being brought to her attention. Fast...

Dollar General Treatment of employees by store manager

While I was making a purchase the store manager was verbally abusive to the employee, in front of a line of customers. The employee kept their composure and didn't react (I would have quit right then if it had been me). This was totally inappropriate and unnecessary. I will not be going back to that store as this is not the way any employees should be treated.

I am borrowing a friend's phone and email for this as I do not have an email account. Please do not try to contact me. Thanks

Ericka was so rude. She has been rude many times before, but today was more than usual and in front of other customers. She wants all the customers to use the self-checkout. Sometimes I need to pay with cash and the self-checkout does not accept cash. I waited a long time and called out numerous times for someone. I walked the store and saw 2 employees and...
