I live across the street from the complex that this store resides in, so I spend a great deal of time shopping at the store for my apartment needs while I'm home. It's a 45 second walk across Water Street. Of times, if I load up an entire cart, I just walk it to my apartment, unload, then walk it back!
The staff is friendly, the store has a vast array of products, and they do have "DOLLAR" priced items, but don't be judgemental if you find items that are priced more than that. Dollar General is not a "Dollar Tree" or "Dollar Store," but they do sell items for a discounted rate that if you were to buy them in other stores like Ace or Weis Markets would be considerably more expensive.
Recently, they started to carry the full line of Swiffer products (my apartment has all hardwood floors) and I have even bought really nice drapes and window treatments.
They carry a variety of cereal products, canned goods, spices, kitchen needs, brick a brack, sodas, junk food, dairy, eggs, lunch meat and cheese, ice cream, the list goes on. Not only that, they carry name brand hygiene products for a lot less money than other "family" stores.
If you are on a fixed income, or just in the habit of saving money, you can find all kinds of things that will cut down your spending habits on necessities of life to keep your household goods stocked. read more
