I live like 2 minutes from a dollar general so i go in there for simple food stuff a lot, and the one near me is mostly fine as far as cleanliness and service goes. The weird thing I've always found about it is despite being branded as a discount store their groceries are on average about the same as any other grocery store in the area, and more expensive than wal mart.

It's the same with Family Dollar. Some things are cheaper than other places like canned food. But stuff like milk and cheese can be more expensive than a regular grocery store.

I just consider them small department stores. Not sure why "dollar" is even in the names of these places since they're not dollar stores.
