Anyone who shops at dollar stores knows that you can often get more bang for your buck than at Walmart or a local grocery store.
Dollar General is no exception. The discount store offers plenty of everyday items at budget-friendly prices. Below are some worth stockpiling in 2026.
Also here is how far $50 goes at Dollar Tree versus Dollar General.
Clover Valley Canned Vegetables
- Price: 85 cents
Clover Valley whole kernel corn or cut green beans make for a quick-and-easy side dish that’s affordable. Not only are they well-priced at 85 cents each, they’ll stay at peak quality for two to five years, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
Glad ForceFlex Max Strength Trash Bags
- Price: $10.50 for two boxes
Dollar General offers several varieties of scented Glad ForceFlex max strength trash bags, including Bahama Bliss and Cherry Blossom. The 13-gallon bags come 20 to a box. Each single box is $5.95, but shoppers can save $1.40 by stocking up on two boxes at a time.
Celavi Facial Sheet Masks
- Price: $1
Dollar General makes self-care products affordable for budget shoppers. It offers several sheet mask options for $1 each, such as the Celavi hyaluronic acid facial sheet mask for brightening and moisturizing. Other options include a Vitamin C sheet mask, a cucumber sheet mask and a collagen sheet mask.
Scotties Facial Tissue Cube
- Price: $1
Spring and fall allergies call for tissues, so it’s smart to stock up. Scotties facial tissue cube is packed with 64 two-ply sheets made from premium-quality materials. Walmart sells the same product for 32 cents more.
Snack Foods and Candy
- Price: Save $3 on $9
Snack food purchases can add up, but Dollar General makes it easy to stock up for less. Through May 3, Dollar General is offering a digital coupon for $3 off when you spend $9 on select mix-and-match snack foods and candy. Eligible products include Oreo, Chips Ahoy, Ritz, Easy Cheese and Sour Patch Kids.
