Dollar General Tips:

• Always hand over any Dollar General coupons you have first, especially any $$ off $$ coupons like the $5 off $25 purchase. If you hand over other coupons first they will deduct from your total and it may drop you under the amount needed to use the DG coupon.

Happy Shopping!
