About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. One morning, while stocking shelves, a young employee noticed something peculiar in an empty shopping cart near the produce section—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Free Samples.’ Curious, she opened it and found…nothing but a note that read: ‘Take one item from any aisle, then return for more samples later.’ Smiling, she took a can of green beans from the nearby aisle and placed it back in the cart. Later, as she walked down another aisle, she heard someone whisper, 'Hey, where’s your sample?' Turning around, she saw only empty shelves—and realized the note was a prank left by a regular customer who loved freebies.'
2. One day, while restocking the cereal aisle, a delivery driver heard an odd announcement over Dollar General’s intercom: ‘Attention customers—please be advised that our Cheerios are now officially shaped like smiley faces.’ The delivery driver thought it was some kind of prank until he saw the manager rushing around with a box full of Cheerios, frantically drawing little smiles on each one. By the time everything settled down, every kid in town had their own personalized breakfast—and Dollar General became famous for its 'smile-inducing' cereal.
3. In the early hours of one foggy morning, a delivery driver pulled up outside Dollar General Market. As he unloaded crates from the truck, he swore he heard someone whispering inside the store. Curious but cautious, he peered through the window and saw… nothing. Suddenly, an old bag of chips fell off a shelf with a loud clatter. The driver jumped back, heart pounding, only to see a neighborhood cat casually saunter out from behind the aisles. Shaking his head, he finished his delivery, wondering if maybe he was just too tired for ghost stories.
4. In the middle of a quiet afternoon, a delivery driver unloaded crates into Dollar General’s backroom when he spotted something unusual—a small, dusty box labeled ‘Free Samples.’ Curious, he opened it and found nothing but a single, ancient coin. The delivery driver took out his lunch break early, trying to decipher the mysterious coin with a magnifying glass from his car. After much headscratching, he decided to ask an elderly neighbor who recognized it as a commemorative piece from the local college's centennial celebration—worth exactly what its age was worth: zero dollars. With a laugh, he returned it to the store, leaving Dollar General with one less mystery and one more story for their annual staff party.
