In these uncertain times, and with grocery shopping becoming a hoarders contact sport, Dollar General is attempting to help senior shoppers get what they need.
Dollar General Corporation has announced plans to dedicate the first hour of each shopping day to senior shoppers, as well as amend store operating hours beginning March 17, 2020.
Dollar General is strongly encouraging that the first hour of operations each day be dedicated solely for the shopping needs of senior customers, who are one of the groups most vulnerable to the COVID-19 coronavirus.
Other customers are being asked to plan their shopping trips around this window of time to allow the most susceptible customers in our communities the ability to shop during the first hour that stores are open.
Please be respectful of the plans put forth by the store. They are attempting to help senior shoppers, who are most susceptible to this virus, get basic supplies they may need to allow them to stay in their homes for extended periods. No on needs to be hoarding supplies, as you may be taking basic necessities from others with little access or putting them in greater danger.
Additionally, all Dollar General stores plan to close one hour earlier than current close times to allow employees to clean and re-stock store shelves, as well as for their health and wellbeing. Stores will continue to maintain current opening hours. Normal operating hours by individual store locations are available here.
