Typically my go to store but honestly today was just upsetting. I have a $5 off $25 coupon that is valid through 4/6-4/11. I noticed it wasn't applied to my total since I qualified for it pre-tax. Went back inside and asked the cashier up front who has a lip piercing in the middle of her bottom lip that I noticed it wasn't applied and she looked really annoyed that I even asked that and goes "what do you want then?" I think she noticed that I got taken back by her response by my nervous laugh and she went to grab someone. He was nice had a Donald Duck tattoo but to be honest I had a feeling her was going to back her up. I read the disclaimer for the coupon and he said it was because of the Red Bulls but it's applied before to them just no alcohol, milk and tobacco. He offered to call to confirm but I just wanted to get out of there so I said no thank you and just left. read more

Dollar General Market - Discount Store Near Me - Santa Ana, California

Worst customer service. Caught the worker buying all the pokemon cards for themselves.

I come to this store because of its proximity to my house. Store is clean and organized. EVERY TIME, I am about to pay and it asks to input a phone number as I'm entering number, either the cashier or the system overrides it and I'm left there mid entry. It is EXTREMELY annoying. What is the point of a point system if this is how it's going to operate. read more

The lady with the tattoo brows is so strange! She will actually harass you through the store microphone and describe exactly what you're wearing and just obnoxiously repeat phrases to make you uncomfortable. She then proceeds to laugh it off with the other bored employees. Super weird behavior! A lot of people complain about this lady and I literally had to leave the store since she did it so many times. Somebody has to tell her to act her age and stop being weird to local customers that have shopped at this store since it was a Savon. Embarrassing to have her representing Dollar General in the Santa Ana community. read more

Our store is in a brightly lit strip mall with many other retail stores nearby so it appears safe. HOWEVER, The New Yorker magazine has a report out recently that Dollar General stores (along with Family Dollar) are usually in very bad neighborhoods with very few other stores nearby and therefore have one of the highest robbery, shooting, and murder rates in the country. So my advice based on this article is to be VERY careful going into one of these stores and head for the exit if you see anyone or anything suspicious. They apparently are unwilling to protect their employees and customers. If you are interested in the article, it is in The New Yorker magazine from June 29, 2020. Hopefully, things have changed since this was written. I have no personal experience with a dangerous one of these stores in my neighborhood. read more

TikTok sent me here and I'm glad it did. It's in a run down parking lot but inside the store is clean. They sell grocery items and everything you would need from Target like household goods, beauty, toys, etc. I usually go here for laundry detergent, tooth paste, clorox wipes, swiffer refills etc. They also have great seasonal decor for cheap. It's not really crowded except when you get to the register. They have an app which I use to order items and pick it up in store and there's weekly deals you can use on top of manufacturer coupons to save money. read more

It's like a grocery combined with garden store and with a 99 cents store. Items that are above $1 are more expensive than other places but there is a nice variety. Not a lot of vegan or vegetarian items but overall fun store to look around. Liked the convenience. read more

I LOVE going to get my car smogged at Brothers (Brother's shares a parking lot with Dollar General Market) because every time I do, I get to come visit my FAVORITE Dollar General! Dollar General Market isn't your average D-General though! It's AMAZING! I ALWAYS find some GREAT treasure here! I wish they had a LOT more of these stores around, but for now, I always make sure to bring extra spending money on smog check day! :) read more

Disrespectful. This lady grabbed my phone and it gave a review "rate this app" then continued to put 5 stars without consent. There is a not now button that you could press but , of course selfish people want to do other wise. Rude workers who act like a smart butt. Learn respect. If I could give a zero star review I would. read more

Great stuff but some staff members have to have a bit more patience with customers especially when they clearance sale going on.

They closed early no even 9:30 . Pm Guys its in the door blocking the entrance. They say sorry we closed early. We ask the reason. Its cause manager wants to closed early. . read more

Amazing staff. So many helpful employees. It must be tough to do their jobs. But they do it flawlessly. Thank you.

Mari knows wassup here! Great customer service. Didn't have a problem helping us out with our issue this morning. She was calm and helpful.

idk how i feel about it its kinda bad but there are ALOT of homeless people and people just hanging out.... i think it okay

Scary location lots of homeless people and I don't know why they call it Darla Dollar General because I only bought aspirin and a water and it came out to $15 read more

I really like this store I feel everything is affordable Always clean Employees very helpful read more

The dollar general is just that and if you need something quick that is the place to go. Unfortunately I purchased a spenwell visa Debit card. It's almost a year and still have not been able to access the 20 dollars on it. I've gone back to the store and no employee or manager knows what to do with the card. I've called the 1833-609-8472 customer service number and I get the run around. But other than this minor issue The Dollar General is still one of my favorite stores to shop. read more

LOVE this store! Soooo handy. It's like a mini walmart or target without all the walking! Prices are amazing, inventory plentiful. Tons of pet food, house supplies, and staff is wonderful. Great food, low prices. LOVE "CareBear" and Austin. So helpful. Thanks. DG! p.s. My fave is the $1 shelf cuz it changes all the time! read more

The staff are nice. The store is clean. They are organized in everything. I loved Dollar General

I specifically went to Dollar General to find special Little Debbie products. The store is clean, with a large selection of everything. I spent over $100 when only meaning to originally buy cookies. The cashier was an older woman who was quite sweet. They also use plastic to bag the groceries which they can somehow get away with haha. read more

Worst cashiers ever they have the worst attitude I asked the cashier what my total was before taxes and she couldn't answer my question so I ended up not getting the 5 off 25 because she couldn't tell me that my total before taxes was less than 25 that's the whole reason I come to this store on Saturdays to get the 5 off 25 and she can't even answer a simple question that she could easily see on her screen read more

I stopped by the Dollar General yesterday on my way home from work. I had heard of it via people on the net from other states who shop at Dollar General in their state. I saw we had one in Santa Ana, so I stopped in. Glad I did! It was like a grocery supermarket on one side and a Big Lots and Walmart on the other side. I was very surprised. The prices were fair and the products were quality and brand name. If Dollar Generals start popping up, Big Lots is going to have to ante up their game. Anyway, I was acknowledged by every worker I passed on the floor with a "Hello. Are you finding everything okay?" I was even helped when I did have a question. My cashier also was helpful, smiling without being fake, and joked without a lot of small talk (which I appreciate). He made eye contact and thanked me and even said good-bye. I left smiling, which I don't do too much of when I'm shopping alone. I may or may not be back. It's not close to where I live but if I happen to turn down Main Street on the way home again, yes I will be back! Recommend? You betcha! read more

Okkkk can someone please explain to me what cashier is charging and texting and has a dammm LONG LINE! The owner Need to fire That Manager that's at the moment!!!!!!plz read more

Way bomb and way better than 99cent store for sure. Open later than everywhere else and have produce and better than just high quantity clutter. Friendly staff and big parking lot. Far off freeway tho only downfall but worth the 5 minute detour for sure. Check it out! read more

Dollar General Market - 5 stars! - Discount Store Near Me - Santa Ana, California

I was going to walk into store to purchase items when I realized I forgot to get a cart. As I was in way to do that an older lady with glasses asked me to leave my bag by register. Told her I had my credit cards and phone in there so I couldn't. So I figured never mind as I intended to walk home and come back with a small purse. As I turned away again she told me "Then don't come back!" I stoped, turned around and asked... excuse me? She quickly restated "Don't come back!" NOW... I can certainly respect any store policy BUT when an employee is quick to be rude and unprofessional it calls for bringing that to any manager or business owners attention. I walked over to a neighboring market and made most pressing intended purchase and I swung back to ask another male employee for corporate number and manager name. Before he could answer, SHE then chimed in stating there was no corporate number and denied providing me with manager information. Also stating they have the right to refuse service to anyone not following their instructions. Please note that I've worked in customer service over 20 years and have both managed others and owned my own business. I advocate hiring individuals who treat your business as if it were their own. She is a prime example of who NOT to hire. Many other employees there are and have been amazing but this experience has turned me off from ever stepping foot in that door again unless I know she's not employed there. Even if she was having an off or bad day it's never ok to be un-professional. If a person carries themselves with that type of attitude and is quick to ban customers; in my opinion, they have no right to work in retail or customer service. One should not be that quick to ban customers without proper reason or without a proper understanding to a response. I've never carried myself in a way that warrants being treated as I was treated today. They've lost a loyal customer as well as an entire family of frequent shoppers due to this woman's poor attitude, lack of professionalism, and lack of proper customer service skills. read more

worst. cashiers. ever. great store, some bargains but let me tell you they have the worst cashiers ever.

Very nice store with very affordable prices. It's a cross between a Walmart(produce as well) and Dollar Tree but without the horrible people. It took over the old abandoned Sav On Drugs building and completely fixed up the building and parking lot. This store is also a savior on a hot day! They constantly blast the AC. read more

My first time at dollar general, friendly employees and organized store. Vanessa and Alyssa helped me with some tips and all my questions regarding the clearance event. I'll be a regular from now on, only because they help and encourage me to save! Oh, and make sure you do a survey online to get a discount on your next trip there. read more

So far so good. Reminds me of a cross between fresh and easy, walmart, and 99 cent store.

First time here, and I wasn't expecting to much or to little. I walked in at 9:00pm and I checked the time, they close at 10pm, but right when I walked in the closing manager already had an attitude. And she started huffing and puffing. Like she didn't want me there. I don't think I was a bad customer, I wasn't making a mess or putting thing where they didn't belong. I found something on clearance and I saw that there was an extra 50% off, so I asked the cashier if she could check the price because I was the last person in the store. And their was still time left for me to shop. The manager walked by and said "we don't have time to be checking people's prices." So I felt uncomfortable and put some of my stuff back and only bought a few things. Also when I was at the register she started yelling at the top of her lungs that the store was closed, and it was only 9:45pm. I've worked in retail, I understand there're bad customers and good customers. But a customer is a customer and that's how a business stays in business. The manager needs to work on her customer service skills. It's not my fault she decided to have a job here! read more

This is a nice store with a friendly staff, but I have a question. There was a lot of fanfare made about Coca Cola teaming with Dollar General to sell special cans of Coca Cola paying respect to veterans and their families. This was announced more than 2 months ago, and I've been calling this store weekly inquiring as to whether they have the product and I keep receiving the answer basically - "not yet". When will they ever get this product? Veterans Day is in November, and I, a veteran would sure like to get it by then so I can share them with my fellow veterans. read more

I recently moved to California from Florida, where there's at least one Dollar General in every small town, and more in the cities. Now I can go to one of my favorite stores and buy every product which I was used to before, and more, since this store also carries fresh produce and groceries. And they still have the $5.00 off coupons (online) on a purchase of $25.00 or more on Saturdays! read more

Dollar General, I live in Bell, Ca. I has been trying to find one of this stores, but they ara too far from here, I would like to have one over here soon please!!! Thank you. read more
