Tips on How to Make Your Deal Shopping a Success
1. Shopping Options: You can shop both online and in-store, but shopping in-store is your best bet. Not all Black Friday items are available online or in the DG app.
2. Doorbusters: There are no traditional doorbusters or early access for anyone. Deals are available while supplies last, so popular items like small kitchen appliances and holiday decor can sell out quickly. Shop early on Thanksgiving Day when stores open (at 7 a.m. or 8 a.m.) for the best selection.
3. Holiday Policies:
-
Price Matching and Rain Checks: There is no price matching or rain checks.
-
Return Policy: The Dollar General return policy gives you 30 days to make returns.
-
Price Adjustments: App orders get price adjustments if the price drops before pickup.
4. Membership Perks: MyDG Rewards is free and gets you digital coupons, plus that Saturday $5 off $25 coupon in the app. There's no early access for anyone. Sign up through the app or register online at DollarGeneral.com.
5. Dollar General Deal Days: Dollar General doesn't have a traditional Cyber Monday sale. Instead, they usually hold a Dollar General Deal Days event on the Thursday through Saturday that follows (Dec. 5 - 7, 2025). It's a different set of items that goes on sale, so don't hold out for a better price if you spot something you like during Black Friday. In 2024, the week after Black Friday included BOGO 75% off plush throws, BOGO 50% off dolls and fleece, and 20% off select electronics.
KCL TIP: You can use cash-back rebate apps like Ibotta and Fetch to get credit for your Dollar General purchases.
