Rushed in to buy batteries for an infant vibrating seat. My FIRST Grand Baby was coming to my house to visit. Store Manager, Laurie, listened to me go on and on about my purchase and my Grand Son. We had some laughs together and I told her about my 3 children and how Dollar General fits into my family story. My kids favorite memory is selecting a frozen treat from the freezer on hot summer days! Thanks Dollar General! I can’t wait to bring my Grand Son in to select a treat!

Always stuff in aisles so cant get to shelves. Cluttery. Never a neat store.

Always feel welcomed when I walk through the door. Its so great to have a place close by that has a little bit of everything. Sometimes I dont want to go into a big grocery store and only need one or two things, I will usually run and get those things (and usually find more than I went in DG for). Cant beat the service and prices on most items.

Wonderful! Manager Mike truly gets to know his customers. He will go out of his way to assist customers.His store should be renovated next.He doesnt treat customers like a number at all.The atmosphere when he is present is kindness, caring, considerate and more!

Sweet helpful staff you can count on seeing every time you go. Im always surprised by some of the cosmetics that are offered. Loving this Shea butter coconut oil moisturizer I found today. I like their cleaning products and containers a lot too. And of course it wouldnt be a trip to dDollar General without Haribo gummy bears.

Dollar General in Helena is great to pop in and grab a few things. Bargain prices for less money than grocery stores or drugstores. The isles are narrow and it can be challenging to find certain items. However there is customarily a team member close by to assist you. Lines can be slow and long checking out. Possibly due to store policy of not having many employees on staff (saving money). Staff is friendly and helpful.

This Helena, AL Dollar General is easily the best staffed and stocked of their local franchised stores (Shelby County area). It seems they always have the items we have shopped there to get. On the rare occasion when we could not find what we sought, the staff will locate it from their stock room, or have it available within a day or two.Friendly and helpful employees are always pleased to assist their customers.

There were a lot of rolling carts filled with merchandise which made it difficult to navigate through the isles with a buggy

Guess what its dollar general 🤣, once youve been in one youve seen them all, unless your lucky and Billy Jean and Gertrude get in a fight and you get to talk tik

The aisles were blocked by stock bins and you couldnt get to items on shelves. Restocking should take place when customers arent in the store.

I never thought that shopping at a Dollar General store on Veterans Day would be a highlight. But interacting with the cashier was a treat! He asked, Are you a veteran? After I answered, Yes, he told me that not only was I entitled to the holiday discount; but a military discount is given to all eligible customers on the 2nd Wednesday of every month. Yay! Every little bit helps.

Never in my life I was cursed out and banned from the store because I was brought a pair of shoes by my landlord my 70-year-old landlord that owns half of the houses in Helena that would never steal or think of stealing anything in her life and when I went to leave I had on a pair of new balance tennis shoes and a smaller pair of Nike in my basket and when I went to check out I was questioned by a guy that called himself the manager maybe he’s gone now because I called corporate and complained but there was also a long brown haired girl that has been there for ever that after the event happened and I went back in she told me to leave and would not allow me to shop I was accused of possibly stealing maybe a pair of shoes that they don’t even sell because my feet were hurting so my landlord lives right down the road I had to finish my shopping she was coming by there anyway and brought me another pair of shoes they don’t even sell them at the store they don’t sell namebrand items like Nike and new balance not only did he question and threaten me but he told meGet out of his effing store and do not effing come back so I pray they got new staff I would not go back in there I’ve been banned from the store and I live right behind it and have for seven years I have been treated so horribly in that store it is horrific
