Dollar General Ad 8/9: Best Sales & Deals

Dollar General deals
Here are the best deals I spotted in the Dollar General ad for August 9 - 15, 2015.

Texas shoppers, remember that Tax Free weekend is August 7 - 9 this year!  So I recommend shopping these deals on Sunday for the best prices.

If you plan to become a regular couponer here, I strongly recommend building a personal relationship with your store's general manager so the cashiers don't freak out at the sight of your coupon binder.  

Bringing a copy of the Dollar General coupon policy is always a smart idea too!  The policy updated in December 2014, so you might need to print yourself a new copy.
