Dollar General

In the heart of Elgin, ND, the Dollar General stands out as a beloved gem for locals and weekend visitors alike. With a commendable overall rating of 4.2 out of 5 stars from 61 reviews, this store radiates a friendly and welcoming atmosphere that keeps customers coming back. As Sheila Moe enthusiastically remarked, 'I absolutely LOVE the Elgin store! The manager, Linda, is the absolute best!!' Her praise reflects a common sentiment about the helpful staff, who often go above and beyond to assist shoppers.

What really struck me was the variety available in such a small store. Sherri Repnow pointed out that it’s a 'sweet little convenience store for this small town,' offering everything from hot dog buns to dog food. For Elgin residents and those spending weekends at Lake Tschida, it's a convenient one-stop shop. Cleanliness and friendliness stand out, too. Amy Thompson noted, 'Greeted when I entered. Offered assistance by any staff I walked past,' emphasizing the positive shopping experience.

However, not all feedback is glowing. Some customers expressed frustration over communication issues, particularly with phone accessibility. As Royce Reinhardt pointed out, it would be 'nice if they could at least answer the phone' for inquiries before making a long drive. Still, it’s clear that the store has managed to create a warm community hub, where friendly service and variety truly shine.
