Anybody hear anything about this?

so this would be a problem, how? Let's not forget north of 98 between 331 and 393 isn't the classiest of areas. This isn't beverly hills folks. There are plenty of lower class people living south of the bay and they need an affordable place to shop.

wow....you must be a troll. Classy compared to...your statements perhaps? I am baffled. If it wasn't your intent to ruffle feathers you may want to consider brushing up on your writing composition skills to make you statements a bit more clear.

Donald Trump and Paris Hilton are living proof that there in no connection between wealth and class.

I cannot believe what a simple question about Dollar General has come to. It has nothing to do with class or income. I am not ashamed to say I have shopped at Dollar General. They do have some "normal and good" products at cheaper prices than elsewhere. Some people may not worry about saving a buck or admit that they need to, but I am up for saving a buck wherever I can especially these days. Also many people have lost their jobs and it does not make them any less classier than others, just unfortunate. Get real people!!

I tend to agree with HippieChick--the phrase "lower class" hit my sensitivity sensor as well. How about we amend that to "lower income". Some of the "classiest" people I know have lower income than many.

Might come off as nit-picky to some, but I believe that words have power. You should choose them wisely. :wave:

Are you kidding? You're not aware that this country is divided into three social classes (upper, middle and lower)? That's actually a very basic description as there are a few extensions of the middle class (working class, upper middle, lower middle).

Not much of a middle class left is there? But I know what you mean. It is that way in most developed countries. As for dividing SoWal, there are poor folks in just about every neighborhood.

To sum this thread up, if it "is" being built for a Dollar General, hope to run into all you different Sowal "classes" just like I do in Walmart!

And didn't we have a Dollar store next to the post office and the Good Will? I bet they were good for each other.

Y'all need a Dollar Tree, too. I like to pick things up and go to the counter and and ask them how much this thang is. And they make their employees dress like this.

I love how you make me laugh! ♡

I wonder what the job requirements are for Mr/Ms Green? btw, Dollar Tree is the place to go for those little battery operated tea lights. ;-)

I am one of the "lower class," although I usually don't get my clothes at Dollar General, I had this pair of rhinestone flip flops from the General and somebody stole them from our beach walk!

How is someone simply having a slight difference of opinion from someone else a war?

I have a feeling this forum site (or any other for that matter) would go away without some discourse or dissension. Hell, even the occasional troll is good for the site to shake things up. From what I've seen, SoWal is not made up of bobble heads~ yes..yes..yes. lol It's all in good fun.

It sounds like more than a "slight" difference of opinion from some. It sounds like some others feel the same from what I have read. It seemed like a simple question that turned in to who is better than who with the classes to me. I have seen this kind of nitpicking before on SoWal. I know of others who have decided to not comment on here anymore due to conflict of interests or opinions going to far. Have a good time!!

This is one lower-class, lower-income chick who's looking forward to Dollar General in the 'hood!

Thanks. We've been hearing that for seven years now. It's called life.
