rude employees
Everytime I ask a question about the restock of products that are in high demand at the moment the employees get very rude. Today they were restocking shelves and I inquired about Lysol and they looked at me with a smug look and stated that they do not have any. When I asked if they were in the process of stocking them on the shelves they again in a rude tone stated that they had not found them yet and could not tell me when they would be available, which I am fine with. It's the manner in which they responded that got me.
I work for a business that has been deemed essential during this time. The employees know that I work for this company and almost always treat us rudely. We are trying to protect our employees that are having to work through this pandemic, nothing more. We are not asking for extra just what we are allowed.
On another note.
About 2 weeks ago I was in the same store for personal shopping
and the employee working the check out was making small talk and asked where I worked, when I told him he beame upset and rambled about how he missed the bank that was in its place and didn't understand why our
company even existed in this city. After checking out completely I began leaving the store and he said " Don't trip on your way out". This is not freindly customer service.
Everytime I or my colleages enter this store the employees give us rude
looks and reponses to questions. They make "I'll tell you later jokes"
We are a business that has a right to buy products just as anyone else. I now feel anxiety everytime I even think about shopping at this location which is a normal 2-3 time a week stop on a normal non-pandemic bases. I will be sure to document my experience the next time.
To be clear, I am completely understanding of the shortage of supplies. I am not upset that I didn't get what I came for. I would have been completely fine with the incounter had they been a little less sarcastic and bully like about it. Presentation is key.

Dollar Generals in Jonesboro Arkansas are not following social distancing of 6ft apart in the lines. People were getting right up to me in the lines. Even when people are coming in the doors their coming up to the line next to people instead of going over the right direction to shop. Something needs done! For people to stay safer DG needs to take this matter seriously before the governor has to step in.

4/4/2020 between the hours of 11-1130am.. I went to the dollar store in beechmont ky.. There was approximetly 5-6 employees sitting out front smoking.. The store manager melissa langley followed me int the store and proceed to harrass me because I took a picture of them social gathering less than 6 feets out front. When I left the store the other employees who were still sitting out front started yelling at me and harrassing me before I could even get in my car.. They started harrassing me on facebook this melissa langley and her husband joey langley aka ky sportspix on facebook. They called me a fat a* and my grandson who was with me a creepy old man and a fat a*, and that they should have took that tote I bought and used it on my head like a whack a mole they also made fun of my appearance and what I was wearing (please note that I am also handicapped).. Now the only reason I went in this store was to purchase some items for my handicapped sister who can't drive or get out.. She had wanted a tote to put her bread in so it would not go stale on her.. I have the picture but I don't know how to attach it.. But they have excellent cameras at the store that you can access.. Thank you

I went to the tilton illionis store to get my at&t card refilled on a refill card I had. When I went to put the number on the card into my phone, it said the number already used. The phone company said thier was supposed to be a pin number on the reciept. There wasnt. So I went back into the store and they said to use the pin # on card. I told them I didnt work since it was already used. I then asked for a refund and the manger said no. Then I said your screwing me out of my money. I live on a fixed income. We got into a argument about it. He told me to leave and its people like me that a spreading coronas virius. I have a bad heart. But he was very very rude to me in front of other custemers. I did get mad myself but he shouldnt been so rude. Im not going back to that store. But I am still going back to other stores. It was about 2:00 in the afternoon on april 3rd. My email is [protected]@gmail.com. Thank you. My name is john kinney
Not selling paper towels
I went into Dollar General in Gaston, NC to see if they had paper towels and bathroom tissue. I saw a box of paper towels on the floor so a gentleman reached in and got me two packs. I went to the register and asked about the other paper towels in the box that wasn't open. The manager said that she couldn't sell them because she need them to clean the store, so she went in the back and pushed the box in the back I guess where they keep stuff and the two packs that I had in my basket, she said that she couldn't sell them to me. I was pissed. I shop at DG all the time, but now I have to think twice, because she act like she was accusing me of going in the box.

Every time I go in Dollar general on Sutherland Avenue the employee are always following me around the store. Like some one is stealing. They act like the cameras don't work. The last incident was when I went to buy groceries and the manager ask me was the other stores out of the items I purchased. Really that's none of your business, where I purchase my items. As long as I purchase them.

Read full review of Dollar Generaldigital coupons
I called in a complaint and spoke with an Elaine, she said she was the only Elaine in customer support complaint department and also said, a turn around contact would be only 48 hours? This complaint was called in 3.5 weeks ago?
I am concerned about the digital coupons... I have done everything and still can't get the coupons to be recognized at any of your stores..in my area,
I've been to 6. the cashier specifically the one that's in Spruce Pine NC, her name is Janet, was Very rude and very uncooperative when asking for assistance... I am handicapped and she is just so unhappy with her job, she verbalized to me after I asked about the coupons not working, she stated that "good luck getting anyone from corporate to help to you, our phone haven't worked here
In 10 months and they'd never addressed it with anyone here"
she is very disgruntled and very unprofessional even if this is a minimum wage job./employee. I've noticed that at the DG stores at Spruce Pine & Elk Park (Janet at Spruce Pine which she wasn't wearing a name badge either
And I had to ask her what her Name was.)
I called in to file a complaint and as above
A Lady by the name of Elaine took my call and assured me that turn around time for a call back was 48'hours.? This was before the quarantine for Covid 19'so this can't be blamed on that!.
I was an RN for 35'years and I never
Spoke so unprofessional about my supervisors as (Janet) does about the dollar general management.
She needs a.. good dose of "find another job out Of the public eye", she isn't good for anyone moral!
I am upset Due to having to spend so much money everytime I come Into DG and my iPhone is blocked from using Digital coupons...?! I am a customer that has worked hard all my life And now that I'm disabled I deserve for my coupons that have been clipped and downloaded to work...
The staff always says their phone never works in the stores either... it's fraud to advertise coupons then not be able to use?!
Banner Elk in NC store is unable
To recognize the coupons as well? The staff can't use them either?!
I think Janet and Elaine owe me an apology for not doing their job...
I have all my receipts, if you need copies
I am disappointed that the very few
Stores we have in our county, DG is the
Closest to where I reside...
You can contact me as I will continue to pursue this until I get A contact back from someone... I am persistent... I won't go away

employees at ola ar dollar general
I was fifth in line with no employee in sight. On my way in I saw 2 outside so I went to get them. It made the both of them very angry. 1 came back in the store with a unlit cigarette in her mouth, STILL MOUTHING. The phone rang and she answered it saying yes they had all the stuff put up and off the floor. The other employee then started telling the customers to back up in a very rude manner. Then it was my turn to be checked out and the first employee with the cigarette in her hand at this time started telling me that I had to wait my turn. The other cashier already had most of my stuff rang up and the employee with the cigarette told me I could leave the store. I told her I sure could that Danville was just a few minutes down the road. She went back out of the store and lit her cigarette and started telling someone sitting in a car that i was cursing at them so I stopped and told her that that wasn't true and I never cursed her .She begin yelling at me again to leave and I told her I was until I heard her lying to another customer. There are plenty of DG stores I don't have to shop in this one but it is in my hometown. The store is the dirtiest I have every been in.Might need to send a undercover CEO to check the store in Ola, Ar out. By the way I was in the store at 4:55 pm on 03/29/20.
Management's Courtesy and Customer Service.
At a time where providing space between others and yourself is critical, the manager is rude and very self centered. My husband and I were in the aisle shopping we were deciding on the best bath cleaner of the choices offered. The Manager seen us from a distance standing in the aisle conversing and she came close to us and offered a rude excuse me as if we were totally in her way. My reply was you are excused and you did and not have to be rude. Next I stated that we should be trying to keep our distance of six feet at this time anyone and suggested that she could have used one of the other aisles as we were here shopping already. From there she proceeded to shout as I responded that she should get this right instead of being nasty to customers at this very trying time for all. With this major recession possibly on our heels we should all protect each other. She does not know if I have the Corona Virus just as I don't know if she has it for safety of herself and me as the manager the option to use other aisle would have suited her well. As a result my husband who did not say anything other than she was rude, and myself have been banned from our Dollar General as a result of an angry Manager who did not consider the Pandemic of this time.

I purchased a bag of the above dog food and the food made my dog lose weight fast. I fed according to the label and even started giving him more but still no weight gain. It did not even help him maintain the weight he already had.
