Have you heard of Dollar General? Who knew they had more than 10,000 stores in 39 states and counting. I didn’t. Just this year alone they will be opening approximately 50 new stores in California.
Last week I went to check it out to satisfy my curiosity and see what they have. Before my trip, as I always do before my shopping trips, I looked for offers and coupons. I was happy to see Dollar General offers different ways to get even more for your money through specials, deals, and coupons. I immediately signed up for DG text alerts, which was easy! I just texted JOIN to DGTXT and I was set, I started getting messages for coupons right away on my phone. You can also sign up through email or DG’s Facebook Page.
But enough talking, let me show you a few pics from my shopping experience:
Here is the first thing I saw and it brought lots of memories from México! I love Marinela products!
Then I saw my favorite Hunt’s Tomato Sauce. Did you see the 65 cent tomato paste, too?!! Wow!
Check this out! There is a Dollar aisle.
Then I found this clearance aisle with great prices.
As you can see, Dollar General has more than food. Getting ready for grilling season?
I couldn’t believe they had these bags! I was actually looking for affordable storage bags like these, so I got some.
What? Food, grilling equipment, storage bags, and shoes? Yep, they also have shoes.
Here is what I got, my kids were a little sad I didn’t take them shopping with me, but they were happy when they saw their favorite ice cream…mint chocolate chip!
Fun, don’t you think?

I’ve learned that General Dollar carries tons of products for well over half off compared to competitors.
