About this location
A few stories people tell about this place
1. At dawn, when Dollar General Market usually buzzes with early birds buying coffee and snacks, an old man started appearing in the parking lot. He’d quietly push a shopping cart filled with nothing but empty boxes and cans. One morning, a delivery driver noticed him and asked what he was doing. The old man replied, ‘I’m stocking the shelves for next week’s special sale.’ They both laughed, and from then on, whenever someone saw him pushing that empty cart, they waved and said, ‘Hey, Mr. Dollar General!’ Turns out, it wasn’t a ghost at all—just a friendly neighborhood regular who loved making people smile.
2. One morning, as customers were browsing shelves, an announcement crackled over the store’s PA: ‘Attention, everyone—we’ve run out of everything except one last box of cereal. Please form an orderly queue!’ Soon enough, a regular stepped forward and asked, 'Excuse me, but what kind of cereal is it?' The manager replied, 'It’s our secret blend—just trust us!' People laughed and formed a line anyway. Just then, a delivery driver arrived with a fresh truckload of groceries. Turns out, someone had accidentally left the warehouse door open overnight.
3. In the late afternoon, when Dollar General Market is mostly quiet, a little boy entered the store, followed closely by his barking dog. The dog suddenly stopped dead in its tracks, staring intently at something on the shelf. Everyone turned to see what had caught his attention—only to find nothing there. Suddenly, an elderly neighbor walked up and asked the boy, ‘Did you see anything?’ The boy shook his head no. Then the dog started sniffing around, found an empty box of cookies, and sat down with a satisfied look. Everyone laughed as they realized the dog was just after a good scratch behind the ears—and maybe a cookie or two.
4. At closing time, when Dollar General Market begins its nightly shutdown, a delivery driver noticed something unusual on the bulletin board: ‘Last customer out tonight gets a free gallon of milk tomorrow.’ The next morning, an old lady was the last one leaving the store. She smiled and said, 'I’ll be back for that gallon of milk!' As she walked away, someone whispered, 'She probably forgot her keys again.'
