Dollar General — Local services in City of Olean

The store is a wreck. Its dirty and unorganized, and if you can find a way through the isles past as all of the carts that never seem to be being put on the shelves, you'll find things like an employee seriously took a bag of individual sale products, and tossed it on a shelf.. I used to work retail and even I wont unwrap their products for them to buy one. There arent sale signs anywhere, is anything on sale? It turns out the Christmas stuff I got was, but based on how there wasnt any advertisement saying so, I never would have known. If I had, maybe I would have bought more.. probably not. Im going to have to properly disinfect the 2 things I did buy.. Honestly, the place is nasty and the people who work there don't seem to care. If I worked there, I would be embarrassed. You're better off going...

Worst Dollar General I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. Whenever possible, I go to DGs further away where I can actually find what I need. It's so messy you can't safely get through half the aisles. Not normal DG mess with rolltainers at the endcaps... stuff just dumped in the aisles. Last time I was in, I saw a sign by the medicine reminding customers to check expiration dates before buying... I feel like that explains a lot. Stock isn't rotated out when it needs to be, so it just piles up. It truly is a Shop At Your Own Risk store... I just go in when I need to...

Went in to get some snacks on 8/29/25 at around 8pm. The old lady working near the counter was in my way so I said excuse me, she didn't say anything, walking fast past me and yelled 'Alex, you have a customer.' This young man approached very friendly and was very nice and got me out of the store in a timely fashion. I presume his name is Alex, he did a good job. He deserves a raise and honestly shouldn't be getting bossed around by another employee who seems to not care. I don't expect much from Dollar general, so the five stars...
