Dollar General is cancer. Their prices are no better than somewhere like Walmart, the only "good" thing is the convenience, I feel like I can't drive ten minutes without passing one

Their prices are no better than somewhere like Walmart,

And their products are smaller. There are Dollar General sized versions. So you end up with less product per dollar spent.
