We have a Dollar General store and a locally owned Loopy's Dollar Store in our town.  I shop there for gift wrap supplies, toiletry items, cleaning items, and pet items.

 I love them but I don't go to dollar General that often. Usually go to dollar tree or family dollar.

Yes.
I love them.  You never know what you're going to find!   They even get organic vegetables.
I don't do the Dollar General store, just the Dollar Tree & the 99 cent only store.

I like Dollar stores but the best one that was around here closed down, it was called Little Bucks and they had everything, fresh produce, diapers...everything and it was all $1. I do go to the Dollar Tree and sometimes there are decent deals.

I sure do!  Sometimes I will go to Dollar General but I really like Dollar Tree.  I get a lit of named brand cleaning supplies, wrapping paper, bows, named brand toothpaste, cards, tons of things!

Yes, I do - they're great for getting decorations, party supplies (especially for smaller gatherings), toiletries,  and some school supplies.  I have even bought food there sometimes - some items are name brands, in case you're leery of the quality.

Yes I have a Family Dollar near me and I go there several times a week.  They have good prices on lots of things but a great many are more than a dollar nowadays.

I do love to go to the dollar tree. The way prices of fresh vegetables and fruit are going up I'll have to start going to the 99 cent store. :clover: :moon:

I think they're fun.  I found my vegetable storage bins at Loopy's Dollar store after searching everywhere with no luck. I buy paper products, gift bags, and helium balloons at the dollar store.

I do. A lot of stuff is 2-3 bucks now but so long it gets the basic job done at a cheaper price, I can't complain.

All the time. There are two right near me; Dollar Tree and Dollar General. I find good deals but I watch the expiration dates on any food items, some can be real close.

Yes I love dollar stores.  Dollar Tree is my favorite.  Sometimes you have to be careful because I have found some things cheaper at other places.

Yes, I like to shop at the dollar stores. There is a dollar tree, family dollar, and 99 cent only here. I use all three depending on the location I'll be in. A dollar general just opened here to. I wonder what it is like and if I should check it out.
