I live out in the sticks, so to speak. We've got a gas station and Post Office a coupla miles from the house.
New Dollar General going in about 3.5 miles down the road. Big happenings for these parts and some folks are all twitterpated about it. I've been in a few DG's, mostly for the contraband Thin Mints, but I ain't a regular.
What are the behavioral expectations for a home-town Dollar General? How must one conduct themselves in said establishment when they're a local? Is there a dress code I need to be aware of? I don't want to embarrass myself or my family name during the Grand Opening event.
I know you guys will steer me true!

They are like WalMart, but not as fancy.

Pants are required most of the time.
If you are not actively engaging EVERY enemy you encounter... you are allowing another to fight for you... and that is cowardice... plain and simple.

Pants are required most of the time. I'll even accept bad news. Thank you, sir.

They sell a $3.15 box of wine... that is to die for.

Teeth are optional.
I'd swear DG's come in a big box with "just add water" printed on the box - instant stores. They seem to go up overnight, and around here, they're popping up all over the place.

Well our DG stores are out here away from all the townie ghetto trash that goes to walmart.
Respectable white folks, a few to tobacco field mexicans
The folks in there are usually more civil, more polite, they usually are in there directly for what they want. No aimless browsing
No electric lardass carts
1. Beer is usually immediately the right, milk is just a little further. Everything you need is on the first two lanes beside the beer coolers. Little debbie, chef Boy’Ardee, vienna sausages, cheddar bacon pringles,
The other 90% of the store is Comet, toilet paper, white trash cosmetics and fouck, I dont know have never been to that side of the store.

Dollar Generals seem to follow the old general store business model. They target small towns and sell a little bit of everything (excluding the fun stuff, hardware, guns, bait tackle ect)

If you enjoy gambling... they are a certified FedEx hub.
