A brand new Dollar General opened up in my town a few weeks ago. They are much cheaper than the two other local outlets on anything that they cross over on (frozen foods basically). Prices in my local area are very high and it is not an economically prosperous area to begin with. I have visited a few times and while there are a few things it would make more sense to purchase there than locally, every other checkout interaction was truly awful. It isn't a big deal really, and the younger staff there clearly don't have much retail/working experience. But I'd rather not have to waste several minutes on what should be an in-and-out trying to get the cashier to understand that I should be getting substantially more back in change than she is trying to give me. Ultimately I don't actually do much grocery shopping locally either way, because the prices are so high that it makes more sense for me to go 40 miles to Costco/Wal-Mart or about the same distance in the other direction to the Commissary on an AFB once a month. I'd be okay paying a little more to support the local businesses, but most things are selling for double or more locally, and that is a non-trivial markup for me. So I mostly stock up on perishables locally in between big grocery runs.
