Looking to cut down your grocery bill? Dollar General might be here to help. While the budget-friendly haberdashery is known for next-to-nothing prices on everything from DIY crafts to seasonal accessories, it also has pretty solid prices on everyday items like paper towels and ice cream. Of course, if you want to get even more bang for your buck, the Penny List is Dollar General's best-kept secret. Well, until now.
Think of the Penny List as the Dollar General equivalent to a clearance section. In fact, the store specifically marks these items down to a penny to tell employees to remove them from their shelves. (Maybe there's a misprint, or an item is nearing its expiration date; it's time to give this product the heave-ho.) But here's where things get interesting: Sometimes, employees forget to remove all those penny items from the shelves, so you can still find and buy some of those ultra-cheap thrills.
In fact, a deals website called the Krazy Coupon Lady keeps a close eye on what makes the Penny List each week. Last week, everything from Tyson's frozen chicken wings to Klondike ice cream bars were available for a penny. Yes, that's right: A single cent.
But hurry! The thing about the Penny List is that these items technically shouldn't still be on Dollar General's shelves, so they won't last long. Translation: The next time you're at Dollar General and you happen to spot something for a penny, you don't want to hesitate to add one (or a few!) to your cart.
Dollar General's Penny List may only be available at the retailer's storefronts, but we would never let you click away without scoring a great deal. Below, check out a few digital coupons you can take full advantage of, stat.
