If you are reading this review it is likely you aren't local. Welcome to this humble midwestern college hamlet, a besieged oasis of weirdness that exists out of place. In much the same way, this Dollar General's golden florescent aura stands alone as the one and only place to buy batteries, tampons, retro video game emulators, garden hose coupling adapters, ibuprofen, other stuff, etc. within several miles in any direction. As such, the locals have largely abandoned any Ill will normally directed at similar manifestations of capitalism's futility, choosing instead to bask in the glory of a shopping experience taking place in a building smaller than an aircraft hanger or indeed any shopping at all if it is past like 7 or 8 pm. For a bonus wholesome surprise I recommend listening carefully while checking out.

Read moreBad experience with Brittany. She checked me out right at closing, something didn’t ring up 50% off and I let her know which she replied by screaming “I KNOW”! She proceeded to belittle, harass and mess up my entire order. I explained something wasn’t right based on my total and she said I had to pay for it before she could look at the transaction on the receipt. So I paid and pointed out what was wrong she said I needed to come back the next day to get it fixed! I still can’t believe she actually has a job! Her lack of social skills, poor customer service and her inability to regulate her emotions is astounding. I won’t be back shopping and will let...
