If i could give this 0 stars I would. I walked into the store with my sister and immediately got called out for my bag, it is indeed a backpack purse but it’s minimum sized and i had it all the way on both shoulders, my sister had a tote bag wayyyy bigger than mine and yet I got told “No backpacks in the store” no reason and she had an attitude when she had spoke out. This was the first reason i was upset, I felt called out and everyone in the store had looked at me. I have severe anxiety and I was shaking really bad. I had went to my car and tried to call the store to try to get her or someone on the phone so I wouldn’t have to go back in to get more information on this “policy.” No one had answered, the line was definitely disconnected. So I got the courage to go back in and voice my concerns about this “policy” and she goes “Its just the policy” no explanation clearly rude wouldn’t even look at me. So I tell her that its just my purse and she completely just put me down, she started talking very loud and yelled st me to leave because I told her she had no right to tell me to leave MY belongings in the car, and I told her she shouldn’t assume someones coming in to steal. I understand it may be an issue but maybe if you have a suspicion maybe don’t directly confront someone in front of people and instead send a worker to keep an eye on them. I have a job and completely stable, I was even in my work attire if you had a feeling I was stealing check your cameras and if I had been you could call my work, ask for my name, and report me to the police or ban me from the store. But no instead she embarrassed me. She said her name was “V” and she was the general manager of the store. I’ve been in many dollar generals and it wasn’t my first time in this one with the same bag, my experiences the times I went before this were very nice and the employees were sweet but not her. I also saw no sign saying “no backpacks allowed.” She was just very unprofessional and I was shaking and on the verge of tears when she yelled at me. I’ve had an experience like this before. I just hope she understands that she shouldn’t try to enforce policies like that. You’re losing a potential buyer by telling them to leave because you think they’re going to steal, your losing money either way. I work in a service business and whenever someone comes to complain I am completely on their side and I understand. But this woman definitely needs to get her lind straight before she loses her job. I really hope she can be nicer to future customers and I wish nothing bad happens to her. I understand she may have a family to feed and bills to pay I hope she can stay in the position she’s in but learns how to deal with situations better. If I was in her place I would’ve asked the customer if I could talk to them and mention the stealing issue and mention their backpack and ask them kindly if they could leave it in their car or upfront and watch the bag for them, and if the customer said no I would watch the customer to be sure. I do hate that people who work in stores have to deal with stealing but they shouldn’t assume everyone is going to steal. I did think about recording the situation but I didn’t want to infringe on her rights as a person nor humiliate her either. We both were definitely in the wrong but after I had left my sister was in line and she unprofessionally started talking bad behind my back to the customer laughing at me, my sister told me the customer was in complete silence. I’m sorry if anyone has had to deal with a situation like this before. I just felt like there was no need to yell at me when I was talking in a normal tone, (and i can get loud when im talking too) but to yell at me and tell me to get out for voicing my concerns was very wrong, she should’ve stayed calm and said “Well, I do understand your concerns, but please understand my part in this situation.” I do apologize to the woman for having an issue. But I feel a lot safer with my bag in me so I can reach my medicine when I am in need of it.

This place was nice yo shop at but I was not impressed with the parking area or the trash does not look maintained very good. The staff was ok they did ask if people in are group needed help. And shelves were stocked but in and out quickly was good.

My experience was so poor, if I could give 0 stars that would be most appropriate. The cashier was inept, rude, & had no concept of retail in general. She couldn't ring up sale items. She didn't understand to whom her customer service was being addressed .Above all else the person parked next to me hit my car, drove off, & there was nothing I could do.

I went in the store today and Laura was very rude. She was racially profiling my African American wife. It was so blatant. I am very disappointed in the treatment here. Never had this problem until today. Dollar General please train your staff better.

If you don't over expect of employees or stock merchandise it serves the purpose to pick up a few basic supplies. A lot of turn over of employees with little or no training but most do try to be of help. My home away from home

Mostly hospitable and great bargans. They are usually clean but occasionally there are boxes on the floors that you may trip over. But hey, what can you expect to buy TP for a dollar? Sincerely, this is my go to place when I just want to grab a few items and get back home.

IT Doesn't matter what time of day I go there, everyone that works there are the nicest, most helpful people!

I hardly shop at Dollar General and when I used to years past every store was in disarray with boxes everywhere. This one was no different. Still overcrowded with boxes in the aisles. Maybe that's the signature of Dollar General. To have it crowded with boxes, customers, one line, and one register open. I give it a 3 for neither good or bad. Not outstanding but not terrible either.

The Dollar General is my favorite place to go to I have a great clearance selection I found a whole bunch of pillows for $4 a piece that are usually $8 and I'm also decorating my room in Paris items and I found this cutest pair of shrug for $3 that is usually $6 if you are going to decorate your house or your bathroom I think this is the best place for you to go thank you Dollar General

Meh.. can't walk through the clothing areas to get to the register. Carts won't fit anywhere thru that area and items are all over the place.... I could improve the lay out and improve sales! I could also help with balanced audits. I did this for a living for well over 30+ years. Send me a message if you would like help.

No matter what day of the week you go the shelves are always bear. It's like they bring two or three of an item out on the shelf and let it sell out and leave it there the rest of the day. It's crazy I go to other Dollar Generals in different parts of Little Rock and don't see this problem. That's sad I'd like to give my business to the Maumelle stores but they don't have the products I need. I asked the clerks and they say what's on the Shelf is all we have. I think what a truly is is they don't want to go look for it or maybe they're right that is all they have. But that looks bad on the manager he's not doing his or her job.

Like Walmart, but smaller parking lot. Grow your own food, takes less time than the checkout lane, on a bad day. Bonus star due to proximity to literally everything. If you cant swing a dead cat and hit one of these stores, just wait. Coming to your backyard soon.

One of the dirtiest Dollar Generals I’ve ever been in. Yuck! Shelves are almost bare. Price tags all over the place. Cluttered like crazy. At least the staff was friendly.

This place is nasty. Stuff (laundry liquid?) spilled on floor but employees doing other things instead of cleaning up. Must want someone to get hurt and sue. Merchandise all over the floor. Worst DG I have ever been in.

Lots of stuff packed into a tiny store. Most of the stuff are priced cheaper than walmart. I wish they had more freezers and expand the ice cream section but besides that Dollar General is great.

I really get such amazing deals for my house at this place. It is often so very busy but I love be able to get all the things I need without losing all of my hard earned cash.

Probably the best overall DG around this area. Clean, well stocked. As close to a smile as you'll get from the dollar corporals who work there.

We didn't get what we were looking for because they don't carry the item, but we DID find some interesting things to buy. ;-)

Dollar General is a great company. The stores are small, but they have most anything you really need.
