    General Dollar is official. They have everything you need at very affordable prices. They are no different than Family Dollar. My only problem with them is that the store is aways unorganized and not fully stock. I know I can not be the only person that feels that way. Either than that, there detergent and dish liquid is official. Despite my personal feelings about the store,it's a good company to invest in. There stock is over $100.00 Dollars a share. They are doing something good as a company.

    This store is a mess. Unpacked boxes are everywhere but on shelves. Staff doesn't offer help. Very difficult to maneuver with a cart. Poor management. management.

    Absolutely the worse shopping experience I've ever had

  • 1/5 Gerson R. 3 years ago on Google
    You can find a great variety of products at a low price. One thing I don't like about this store is that they treat customers as thief's. From the moment you enter the store to the moment you exit you have all eyes on you which in my opinion makes it an uncomfortable environment. The stuff can be rude at times. If you are planning to get a job here not the best place to work at.

    I'd say about a third of the time, the looks like it's been ransacked, but the other two thirds offer a nice experience. They need more cashiers on at one time though, as far too often, there's only one. Checkout could be faster and the staff need to work on their customer service skills. The last time I went my cashier literally said, " I hate when the customers try to have a conversation with me," as I walked up to the register. Excluding the staff, the store isn't bad.

    They do have some nice stuff in there, especially that last, messed up looking last aisle in the back, good sales, too 😃

    I went here early Saturday morning and they were closed even though Google said they were open. If the business isn't open due to construction or something put a sign up please.

    My experience at this Dollar General was not that good the store is big and has a good selection. But this store is dirty and unorganized there are boxes everywhere and everything looks trashed. And they don’t have a public bathroom ether. The employees are decent but I would not recommend this Dollar General location

    friendly employees, good selection of items

  • 5/5 Stephanie K. 3 years ago on Google
    They need to do a better job at keeping the store in order and presentable. It's stuff strewn all around& piles of cardboard boxes stacked high. Just an accident & law suit waiting to happen.

  • 2/5 Kristen F. 3 years ago on Google
    Unfortunately. I only go there because it convenient. But the store is always messy. Boxes everywhere, merchandise in the floor never have anything on the shelves. The associates are friendly .

  • 4/5 Caesar S. 3 years ago on Google
    They do their best all things considered. Most things are in stock, staff isn't the friendliest, but most will help if you ask and are normal. Prices are usually better than other dollar stores in the area.
