Dollar General store # 17825 Louisville MS. This store is not safe for customers. The store has been like this for months... Months! You can not access the shelves for the carts sitting lined in front of them. You attempt to move rolling cart and they are hooked together so you can not move them. Wheelchair access is non active. A wheelchair person can not...

Dollar General Not Selling My Pillow Products Now

I am so disappointed to learn you are no longer going to sell My Pillow products. I can only assume that you do not believe in freedom of speech anymore. This is appalling to me because if you disagree with a conservative Christian you just stop serving those of us who are your customers.
Where were you this past summer when people's businesses, cars were being burned to the ground, looted, police officers injured, people KILLED. Trying to blame Mike Lindell for other people's behavior is ridiculous and by the way I thought we were still free to speak in this country even if others don't like what we say! This cancel culture is going to lead to communism taking over our country. It's funny that nothing ever applies to Democrats or liberals but in communism even those people will have no voice.
Sadly I will no longer be able to shop at your stores because I feel I must stand up for at least HALF OF THE CITIZENS IN THIS COUNTRY! Just so you know you are only losing business because the My Pillow company is now making more money than ever thanks to companies like you!

Cashier checked me out. I ask her if it took off my 5$ she said yes and I told her I did not think so, because of total. She said that it did. When I got my receipt, I knew that it had not. She said nothing I could do about it. Its not about the 5$, I have a small business at least a hundred people go in an out daily. I would never allow my employees to...

Dollar General Cashier

Went by the local dollar general today after a long tiring day. Me being 46 and hurting constantly I dont always have a smile at the end of the day. As I gathered my items and brought them to the counter I was sliding them across the counter under the very small window of plexiglass protection to her when I was extremely belittle by the very rude young female cashier yelling in a very stern manner do I have issues, then in trying to find a complaint dept to email them it was basically non existent had to make a phone call with no resolve yet. This is very unacceptable behavior for a cashier it was terrible experience

Desired outcome: Reprimand

Dollar General Censorship/Cancel conservative vendors

My family has been devoted to Dollar General for the last 30 years or more. So needless to say I was very saddened by your choice to begin censoring conservative vendor. So of course now my family will no longer shop at the Dollar General until they apologize for supporting censorship and cancel culture. My goal is to inform and continue to grow support all across the Country to cancel Dollar General. Will pray for your lost souls and of course will miss shopping at my favorite store. Thank you for you time.

Desired outcome: Stop Censorship as well as Cancel Mentality!

Having visited store number 01472, in glen burnie md. I was totally appalled at the lack of customer service as the associates were too busy chatting with one another. The store was filthy and no professionalism was displayed. My thought was to take the customer survey once I got home, however the receipt was hard to read as it needed to be changed. The...

Dollar General Involvement in politics

I have been informed that your store is now cancelling Mike Lindells products! Why would you insert yourselves in to the crazy world of politics?

Are you not smart enough to figure out that at least 75 million people voted for former President Trump? So with you playing politics I guess I'll play pick a favorite store and DOLLAR GENERAL didn't make the cut!

As of today, consider your store cancelled in the Demmien household!

I have power as well, I'm a consumer, there are many other stores that want my money I will ensure they get my business

Sincerely Linda Demmien

Desired outcome: Stay out of politics

I had bought a Dollar General gift card for $50 for my mother-in-law who is 81 years of age. She went there to purchase items with use of her card. The cashier told her she couldn't use the card because it would shut their system down. So she had to got to another town which also had a Dollar General store to use it. What kind of business is this. She i...

The manager is refusing service to anyone without a mask on. She was already rude before a covid and now even more so just so that you do what she says. I will go 10 miles back to town just to go to walmart-mart just to not have to deal with her yelling and lack of respect towards customers. I have had many people tell me they haven't gone back or just put...

01/31/2021. I was an employee at dollar general on 300 Azalea Road in Mobile, Alabama. I had been working there for about three weeks, less than a month. A customer came in and tried to intimidate me because I wouldn't sell him tobacco without seeing his ID (you know, the law and also the company policy). He came back later and started antagonizing me...
