Dollar General

DG has been a welcomed addition to NORTH Padre Island. It seems many are reviewing a S. Padre DG. Before opening, the only option was a CVS where everything is priced at least 3x the cost of other CVS stores. This DG is new, clean, well-stocked and convenient. I’ve never seen it messy, never seen long lines and it has a wonderful location with a clean parking lot. For those who live on the island, it has been great.

These stores are everywhere. They are killing the mom & pop convenience/grocery store market. Think carefully before you shop. Do you buy things from China just because they're cheaper? I like a good deal, but sustainability and supporting USA based manufacturing is better.

The staff is really cool. And gave great direction when I navigated this store. It's HUGE. This location is usually busy because the area. But it wasn't that day. Has alot of beach items still. Has alot of clearance. Drinks and snacks galore. If you need other utensils, and other stuff they have you depending. It's basically a small grocery store at this point. Masks are required to enter right now. They also have ice and propane tanks.
