"A friend referred me to Dollar General a few months ago. I like the store, but the name may be a bit deceiving; this is not a dollar store.\n\nThe original reason I came here was to buy eggs. When they are on sale, eggs are $1 a dozen, normally $1.49/doz. So, even when they aren't on sale, eggs are cheap. As I have discovered, other items go on sale with regularity with pretty amazing discounts. As always, check expiration dates. I haven't had a problem with this, but the inexpensive pricing has to be coming from somewhere.\n\nThe store is usually very clean. There is a one aisle with a final clearance set of shelves that is usually a mess. The stuff in that area reminds me of this movie line, \"Push the fish, it's about to turn.\" They also have a seasonal area for sale priced items of the upcoming holiday/event.\n\nCheckout can sometimes be bothersome since there's usually only one check out line when I come in.\n\nOne last thing, is shopping at night. For some strange reason, this parking lot seems exceptionally dark at night. Maybe it is the trees or weak lighting. IDK why, I just know that it seems creepy. But, so do most F&E stores' parking areas."^^ . . "1"^^ . "4"^^ . "2013-03-04T00:00:00"^^ . . . "0"^^ . "0"^^ .
