Customers and state governments have accused Dollar General of overcharging for various products. Additionally, two Dollar General customers and two employees told Business Insider they'd been overcharged or had seen customers overcharged in Florida, Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Alabama. High turnover and reduced hours for Dollar General employees have led to merchandise crowding aisles, creating safety hazards. The state's Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection said inspectors had found that Dollar General stores overcharged customers for 9% of products the inspectors evaluated. In North Carolina, Dollar General paid nearly $71,000 in fines related to its pricing practices from August 2022 to April 2023.
