Worst Dollar general in the area. Sign on door at 12pm, out to break back in 30 minutes. Never organized. Employees always rude. Especially the younger guy, who even after seeing my military id tried to say he wasn't gonna give me a discount because Im a veteran instead of actively in. On veterans Day this year. Don't waste your time

Beyond ghetto. Staff is halfway decent but patrons are often unruly and problem prone. Avoid unless absolutely necessary.

This place has gone downhill since the last store manager left. Always dirty and employees are rude and never dressed in uniform. Avoid this store, its a terrible place to shop.

I shop at this Dollar General at least once a week, this is another place where the staff are super friendly and helpful. They always have what I'm looking for and the prices aren't as steep as some other local grocery stores. I do wish they would hire some night time stockers though, more often than not, a few of the aisles are packed with U-boats full of merchandise. Again, the employees are the bees-knees! Thank you

This is the last time that I will be going to any Dollar General in this area. I came to my daughters favorite store and left in a not so happy mood. I was in the store 5-10 minutes and most of this time was spent watching 2 people watch me in a blocked toy aisle that they didn’t bother to unblock. My daughter wanted a “toy”, so I decided to take her to DG. Big mistake. I seen an older man come to the end of the aisle twice to just look at me, but not once ask if I needed help. Once he walked away, Jimi came to the end of the aisle and did the same exact thing he did, so I said, “Hello!” W/o any response. My daughter found her toy of choice and we headed to the front when we got to the end of the aisle I see Jimi again face to face. She walked down the aisle where I was and checked it to make sure everything was still in place. I move on to go to the front and here comes Jimi again watching me, so I asked, “Why are you watching me so hard?” She looks left to right as if she had no clue who I was speaking to, but we locked eyes. She sat in that office and stayed until my transaction was over at self checkout. I let the cashier know what had happened and she wanted me to let Jimi know, but Jimi was the one following/watching me. The toy I bought was $10. I hope Jimi appreciates what she did and how she made me feel. I don’t steal! I pay whatever it is being asked, so you’re welcome for making this the worst experience of my day.

Horrible customer service. I was followed by an older lady, who happens to manage the store, and harassed the entire time. I'm a very slow shopper , because I am constantly trying to find the best deals, and she apparently wasn't liking how long it took me to shop and continuously asked me if I needed help and acting as if I was stealing! I am not a thief! I have spent quite a bit of money in these stores, I was very offended to say the least. I will not be going back.

I absolutely love this store. Anytime I go in there, I think I’m just going to pick up a couple of items I need. Lo and behold, a half an hour later, I walk out with a whole cart full of items. My husband asks me all of the time “how much money did I spend” and I have to tell him that it was a little more than I had anticipated. The reason why is because they truly have the best prices. It’s a smaller store and therefore it’s got easier access to walk around the entire store in a short amount of time to get what you need. I love, love, love this store!!!!

I like shopping at Dollar General. Easy access to parking. Run in select your items and your out again. I have done this on my lunch several times. Very convenient! Products are the same as the grocery store.

Has everything I needed at good prices but on Saturdays its hard to walk through the store because they block several rows with stock carts. Saturdays are busy shopping days so it would be nice to be able to walk easily through the store.

Usually love this place but no one has been wearing thier masks and I feel like bathing in hand sanitizer when I get out of there.If you're freaked out about germs and panic easy lile I do, don't go. Go to CVS or something instead.

Easily found what I was looking for, checker even went to look for something that I wasn't sure they even had anymore and brought half dozen or so to checkout counter for me to choose from. This DG store has a history of not restocking shelves promptly, but they have been improving somewhat "lately".

Customer service isn't a big priority, especially when it comes to returning things,even with a reciept. Also you need to make sure to check before you go home to see if they took off money for your coupons. Make sure you don't get charged regular price for discounted items or items on sale, because if you aren't on top of things you will end up losing money rather than saving it. Personal note, I am not giving this rating based off of one bad experience, I'm giving it due to the multiple times I've had bad experiences with this D.G.

This is my FAVE DG, but this last time they hadn't put out the new stock because of employee call offs. That bothered me quite a bit, I was there to get A LOT of things. Spent over $400, if the shelves had been restocked I would have spent $600+

This store is the worst, they never have the shelves stocked, items are still boxed up and blocking isles and it don't matter the time of day items are not stocked. Customer service has gone way down since the old manager got sick and couldn't come back. Convenient location but the overall service sucks and they are short staffed.

Mislabeled prices caused an argument with the manager who would not budge on the price. A rack of sunglasses were labeled as 3-5 dollars. Cashier said they were $10. There were no other displays of Sunglasses for $10. Never going back there!

The staff is nice but if they try to put anymore in that store people would not be able to move.

One of my favorite DG locations. Always on top of stock. Always clean and pretty well organized. The customer service is the best.

Terrible they were out of everything and very unorganized. I prefer the one in East Alton Illinois but it was blocked off because of the floodgates today I won't go back to BroadwayL
