Maximize your savings with the Dollar General weekly ad

Dollar General offers plenty of everyday value, but you can save even more by taking advantage of limited-time sales. The dollar store advertises these special discounts both in its weekly ad and in small signs posted around the store. This will help you maximize your savings!

These sales typically include digital coupons on everything from beauty products to snacks. To use them, sign up online or via the Dollar General app for a free myDG account.

Then clip the coupons you want to use and they’ll be added to your myDG Wallet. At checkout, you just enter your phone number to redeem in the store.

Finally, keep an eye out for Dollar General’s regular deals! The ad also showcases affordable seasonal items and other gems that start at just $1, so you don’t miss out during your shopping trip.

It’s the perfect time to stock up on pool gear for the whole family. This week, Dollar General is offering a great BOGO deal on goggles and masks. Buy one set of swim goggles, and you can get a second pair (of equal or lesser value) for 50 percent off!

Margaritaville items

Teased in this week’s ad, the new Margaritaville line will have you ready to kick back and relax with a cocktail. The laid-back vibes begin at just $1 with finds like reusable cups that are playfully vibrant. But look for other gems like oven mitts, ice cube trays, towels and more—all at affordable prices!

USA socks

Dollar General’s patriotic products have been flying off the shelves, but you may still be able to snatch up some Americana goodies. Don’t miss the $1 ladies’ socks that come in several red, white, and blue designs. Save them for our country’s 250th birthday or wear them to show your American pride all summer long.

Accessories

Another BOGO 50 percent off deal you won’t want to miss? Accessories! The dollar store has all kinds of cute and clever items for sale, like this iridescent train case to store all your beauty essentials and a heatless curler set. To find out what’s eligible for the discount, look for a yellow dot on the tag.

Pool inflatables

With summer just around the corner, it’s no surprise this week’s ad has plenty of pooltime highlights. The toy aisle is full of $1 and up H20 Go! inflatables, including a 10.6-inch beach ball, that swimmers of all ages will enjoy.

Lysol air sanitizers

Banish summer colds and make your home smell fresh with these Lysol sprays. Each 10-oz. can ($7) kills 99.9 percent of airborne bacteria and leaves behind a pleasant scent (I like the tropical sunset!). Clip the digital coupon and you can save $1 on your next purchase.

Palm Beach collection

Seasonal decor is in abundance right now, and that includes this fun tropical line. Though it may be inspired by Palm Beach, the collection is much more affordable. Many of the items, like the kitchen towels, oven mitts and potholders, start at $1 even without a coupon!

Sunscreen

Before you head out for your next beach day, grab your sunscreen at Dollar General. Right now, you can clip a $1-off digital coupon for the Studio Selection brand of sunscreen spray ($6-$6.95). This Dollar General brand—available in SPF 50 and 70—is designed to rival Coppertone Sport and Banana Boat Sport varieties.

Many of these savings end June 6, so don’t wait to head to your local Dollar General store! You could walk away with beautiful decor, beach day essentials and other great finds for less.
