I went into the family dollar in Scottsburg Indiana. The assistant manager was.not.in uniform she did not have family dollar shirts on and no name or tag. She had on some black leggings and a brown crop top. The crop top was a off the shoulder and she was showing a lot of skin. That is not how a manger or employee should be dressed. Me being a customer I do...

No other store i've been in or worked in allows all the workers to sit out front and smoke and play on phones for more that a break! Delphos ohio store they sit outside for hours smoking and when you want to pay for something you have to go outside to get them to come in and they act like it's a inconvenience for them and they are rude! I would give name...

I stopped by the store at 10445 blue ridge blvd kansas city, mo to buy popcorn. The posted sign was labeled $3.50 the register scanned it at $3.85. Initially, the lady said there had been no price changes until after she accompanied me to the item in question. Now she said, "whatever it scans is the correct price" & that she was the manager & couldn't do...

Family Dollar Heating and Cooling

I am very disappointed in my local Family Dollar located in Beattyville Ky 41311. This store does not have any proper heat. The employees have a small heater behind the cash register to keep them warm. The store is cold because the heating and cooling system is not and has not been working right for sometime. This is uncalled for. In the summer it is so hot that you can not stand to shop. The employees have a fun behind the cash register in the summer and a small heater in the winter. Something needs to be done.

Desired outcome: Heating and cooling system fixed

I bought 3 glade candles from Family Dollar they smelled really nice in the jar but when I lit them up they started ok and after 10 mins no smell at all. They also burned very fast. I use a lot of your products this is my first time with the candles and I have to say I was very disappointed, Thank you Debra Breckenridge [protected]@gmail.com

Upon entering the store, I had a face covering on. However, there was a women who apparently worked there but did not appear to be on shift. She began yelling at me that I didn't have a mask on. The sign on the door clearly said face covering required. She required me to remove my face covering and put a mask on. She was loud, rude and the situation wa...

I was denied service at this store for not wearing a face mask when I told them that I could not wear one due to a medical condition. They still refused to wait on me and check me out. Not only is this bad practice for management of a store that is just opening up, but they need to be educated about the CDC's requirements for a mask and the fact that not...

Family Dollar The workers locally

My family shops here often. It's the Arco, Idaho store. A few years ago the staff was lazy boxes always filled the isles. Thankfully the old staffs no longer there. The new staff stocks the shelves and the night crew they're left to the stocking, checking dates for outdated product, assisting customers, cleaning, and closing up. The day crew (manager, assistant manager, and 3rd employee) well the manager and assistant manager are always looking exhausted on'ry and overworked. They are constantly slenderizing someone local usually employees past and current. Most people in town will drive the hour to Walmart to avoid the hostile confrontational environment of our local family dollar. The older gal (3rd employee) chimes in but she usually just sits at the register and helps customers as they check out. These workers work 6-10 hours a shift no lunch and one "quick break" isn't that illegal? Also 5 employees total at all times. Open 7 days a week from like 8/9/10am to 10pm. Pretty sure you need more employees here so people can take their legal breaks/lunches. Pretty sure anyone of your higher ups would come in and shop like a customer and be disgusted with what they'd hear out of the managers poor me mouths during any given day. Make your night crew managers get rid of the bad bring in the good make customer's happy they shop at your store (you make more money with happy customers). Oh and I may add, pretty sure if you sell tobacco products you are required to carry a current license to sell tobacco (and alcohol). Might want to send someone to check for yourself before you get penalized for expired licenses and mouthy managers. Thank you. Arco Idaho

Desired outcome: Send corporate to check the stores

I am writing in reference to Family Dollar in Bridgewater, Virginia. I have shopped this store the last 2 weeks and both times the store felt as though the air conditioner was in use. Our temperatures in our area have dipped to as low as 20 degrees. Last week it felt warmer outside than it did inside the store. I felt someone should file a complaint not...
