Editor's Review

Walking into the Dollar General in McAllen feels like stepping into a treasure trove of everyday needs. The aisles are lined with everything from snacks to cleaning supplies, all at prices that won’t make your wallet cringe. It’s a shopper's paradise for anyone looking for convenience and value! However, recent experiences have cast a shadow over what could be a purely positive shopping adventure.

Several customers have expressed frustration with service, particularly mentioning a staff member named Maggie. For instance, Yahrissa F. lamented about an encounter where Maggie was "so rude" and unhelpful towards her children. This sentiment echoes in another review, where Briana Garcia simply stated, "Maggie is the rudest employee I’ve ever met." Yet, not all experiences are negative! Vivian Vargas highlighted the positive impact of the new store manager, Juan, noting that since his arrival, the store is "always clean and organized" with superior customer service. It seems like there are some gems among the staff, but inconsistency in service remains a concern.

Overall, this Dollar General offers great deals and a variety of products, but it's essential to go in prepared for a possible less-than-perfect encounter with staff. With a mix of positive and negative feedback, it’s clear that improvements in customer service could elevate this location from good to outstanding.

Best for: Budget-conscious shoppers looking for convenience and a variety of everyday items.

The worker Maggie is so entitled and so rude, telling my kids to stop making a mess when they weren’t doing anything. After telling me that, she proceeded to be in a phone call saying that she gets to call in and get days off without any consequences...

The guy with glasses is so rude, he told the customer before me to bag her own stuff when she asked if he could do it for her while getting her money to pay because he said she has hands and can do it herself. I also had a rude encounter a while back...
