  1. [R1] Dollar General-Digital Coupons 1/5 · US DG APP: Y’all need to do something about your App. You can never find what you look for. I searched Pedigree canned Dog Food and it brought up drumstick ice cream and 18 pk eggs. I’m very dissatisfied with this app. It’s also extremely slow loading.

  5. [R4] Dollar General-Digital Coupons 2/5 · US Not accurate: It's never truthful with the updated in-store totals; they say they have more in stock, but when I go in person, it's always empty and they tell me they've ran out. I've gone multiple times in person and made deliveries but have been turned away, saying they ran out or sold out, and to come another day when they restock but the deals/sales no longer are avaliable so I miss out it. I
  6. [R10] Dollar General-Digital Coupons 1/5 · US Coupon trouble: I love shopping at the dollar store but what I don’t like is I spend a lot of time looking through your great coupons and I’m careful to get exactly what the product is on the coupon . Then I get to the register and got nothing . I asked and asked for a receipt review but never get it . I’m just out the money and could have saved a lot of time . Something needs to be done about thi

  10. [R16] Dollar General-Digital Coupons 2/5 · US Delivery is a joke: Used the app today to try to score some cheaper canned soft drinks. Free delivery was advertised. I marked that I wanted to be contacted if the items in my order where unavailable. No contact, incomplete order, and no way to get help through the app. Just an email option and a phone line that I was on hold for more than 40 minutes when I gave up.

  15. [R96] Walmart 3/5 · US Need Improvements: There definitely needs to be improvements made to the app. It crashes often and filters are not reliable.

  23. [R90] Walmart 3/5 · US Walmart needs to fix lag on adding items to cart: There’s a ridiculous lag when you add items to cart and start filling it up for a pickup or delivery order. This has not been fixed for over a year. The larger your cart get, the slower it gets and the more it crashes when you’re in the middle of it. Amazon doesn’t do this. Why does Walmart??! Fix it.
