Great store to come and get your food and snacks. The workers here are helpful and friendly. This store is a great introduction to Alturas. We need more stores to help our town grow...

Just a normal Dollar General, but the best milk price in town! Don't go 5 - 7 in the evening as lines are backed up the isles. Lot's of people cutting lines, so keep your cool or wait to go till 9ish.The staff work real hard to make the best out of a poor store layout, and keep the customers happy. Good job guys!Update 07/11/22: Best milk price is at Holiday Market now…. Milk is SUPER expensive here.

The best thing about this store is location. Theres a Subways, gas station, restaurant and grocery store right next to it. So if your traveling it's a good place to stop.They have a good selection of non perishable food items and when I was on food stamps I did all my shopping here. You can find inexpensive hygiene products here also.If you go in this store you will need patience because the lines are always long and the cashiers seem overwhelmed most of the time.

The prices are stellar! They are getting more and more made in the USA items. The staff is very helpful and friendly and the store is clean and well organized. If you have the shopping bug but lack a stack of cash you will love this Dollar Tree!

This is my only complaint, for all the money in merchandise they throw out and believe me they throw out a truckload at least every other week, they should at least put it in a couple of big boxes and let people have it or turn their wasteful eyes away and allow people who can respect the ability to dumpster dive( don't leave a mess and don't make it obvious)to do it! It's ridiculous how much decent stuff they throw out!!!

One star The store is an absolute mess. Trash all over the place. Unorganized shelves, Empty boxes everywhere, more positive on the floor than shelves. Unsafe environment.Update, four stars, new management seems to be cleaning up the store nicely.

It's actually a pretty good store, fair prices on odds and ends, friendly customer service. Great Location and Great Deals on everyday household items. Only complaint it gets jam packed in there on certain days.

They had a very neat store with wonderful and helpful employees. They even had everything I needed so a second stop was no longer necessary! The prices are great too.

I absolutely love utilizing this store. This town and is very small and Rite Aid is nice as a back up place if you can't find it at DG. They do have alot of merchandise that is not always properly stocked right away but I can go there for anything. I have been there numerous times I have never been rude to by staff or managers. They have everything you can think of from sports, groceriers, house decor, kitchen decor, bathroom decor all your paper products. I live this store and live to watch as it grows. I feel that the DG has benefited this community extremely and all though they do have long lines all the time it shows that there is people still interested enough to go and how many people that go is unreal. They also just recently put in a Redbox outside which I love. There have been a few times in the middle of the night that ni feel like a movie and that is the only movie pick up in our town that offers 24/7 assistance. Great job DG keep up all your hard work.

Shelves are often low on stock. No consistency in marked pricing labels. I have not bought many items from here simply because they didnt have a price on the item or shelves. There are often carts and pallets of merchandise sitting in the middle of the isles (which contain more product than the shelves) and these carts and pallets are always placed right in the way so you have to maneuver around them. In an emergancy situation i can see people getting extremely injured by these large hazards. I often have to stand at the register for several minutes while employees are in the back room. They provide a "squeeze toy" (like a dogs toy or childs toy) to alert the cashier that a customer is at the counter. I refuse to touch this squeeze toy due to sanitary reasons. Is a bell really so hard to get? The payment machines often fail when using my bank card, so i walk out everytime they arent able to accept my payment. The floors are always dirty. Not all but most employees make you feel like a burden to them. Ive heard they are trying to improve but ive seen no progress as of yet.Update: today i went in and i did see that the floors looked clean, thats a step in the correct direction. SHERRI is an awesome employee! She went above and beyond to help me even though it was not her fault or even the stores fault. Way to go Sherri! Keep it up!

A Dollar general, just like all the others, love it but due to the area the stock isn't always great. I visit it 1-3 times a week. Saves me a trip to Klamath or Susanville.

It is what it is... They have an issue with keeping it stocked. But we are in the middle of nowhere. Is an essential part of my monthly shopping, they could however have a produce section.

No sanitizer for carts or hands. Pretty important these days. Such a close confined space. Necessary to keep our community safe.

This place has awesome prices. You're limited on brand options for some products, but the prices more than make up for it.

Shelves are always bare, even though they get 2 shipments per week. Not the cleanest store I've been to.
