CLEVELAND, Ohio -- DGX, discount giant Dollar General’s smaller concept store, opened its first Cleveland-area location this week.

The store, located downtown at Reserve Square at 1701 E. 12th St., is designed with urban shoppers in mind. Roughly half the size of a typical Dollar General store, DGX focuses on grab-and-go items such as fountain drinks, coffee, prepared sandwiches, snacks and candy, according to the chain’s website. City dwellers will also find a selection of groceries, cleaning supplies, pet food, health, beauty and bath products-- all at Dollar General’s low prices.

In addition, DGX offers a limited assortment of electronics, home decor and seasonal products-- product categories not typically available in convenient stores. Express checkout lanes help get customers on their way quickly.

Dollar General launched the DGX concept in 2017. The Cleveland store is just the fourth location in the nation.

To celebrate the grand opening, there will be free samples and giveaways starting Wednesday and continuing through Saturday. The store is open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
