FYI from northern Ohio, a rural county 60 miles east of Cleveland:
Within a 4 mile radius of my house I have 3 Dollar Generals, two Dollar Trees and two Family Dollars.
One of these FDs is brand new, opened a year ago 500 feet from an established DG. This new FD is closing already, with going out of business sales.
Meanwhile, DG has opened a DG Market store in what was considered a “food desert” area. That makes 4 DGS and one FD.
As an aside, the DG closest to me frequently has charged more than the shelf price on at least a few items per trip. The price readout on the register is conveniently aimed at the cashier, not the customer. You won’t know you’ve been overcharged until you have your receipt on the way out!

Story posted here yesterday:
“...Just over half of Amazon Fresh stores are equipped with Just Walk Out. The technology allows customers to skip checkout altogether by scanning a QR code when they enter the store. Though it seemed completely automated, Just Walk Out relied on more than 1,000 people in India watching and labeling videos to ensure accurate checkouts. The cashiers were simply moved off-site, and they watched you as you shopped...”
You mean this isn’t true? Just cannot believe anything you read any more!
