With 7 pets in our home, there always seems to be some little furry critter waiting to be showed some affection. We love to use treats for training and to spread a little special attention around to help our furry friends feel more appreciated. Dollar General is the closest real store to our home in the middle of nowhere, and we go there so often for all of our household essentials, but one of the things we love to buy there are Purina brand treats for our dogs and food for our cats.

I love shopping at the Dollar General not only at home, but on the road too. There always seems to be one close by on our road trips, and they carry just about everything we need, including freezer items and milk! You can always find a close parking space, there are no huge lines and the store is much easier to navigate than some of the larger options.

Not to mention, Dollar General has extremely competitive prices on all the products we use most often, including Dollar General Alpo Products for our dogs and cats. I headed out to the local Dollar General recently to pick up some treats for our dogs. They will do just about anything for Beggin' Strips treats. All we have to do is shake the bag and they will come running instantly. For us, they make great training tools.


The prices from Dollar General on Purina brand products like Tidy Cats litter and Friskies food we buy for our cats and Purina treats we buy for our dogs are always cheaper than we can find them elsewhere, so they are our first stop for these items.
