Dollar General $8.5M settlement: Last day to file a claim
Eligible shoppers can claim $10 or their overcharge amount in the $8.5 million settlement, and households may file up to two claims.
- Yesterday, April 13, marked the deadline for consumers to file claims in Dollar General's $8.5 million class action settlement over pricing discrepancies between advertised shelf prices and checkout charges.
- The Pennsylvania Attorney General reported that Dollar General "failed more than 40 percent of pricing accuracy inspections between 2019 and 2023," prompting the lawsuit alleging customers paid more than advertised prices.
- Any United States consumers who paid more than advertised shelf prices between Oct. 10, 2016, and Nov. 19, 2025, qualified to file claims under the settlement framework.
- Dollar General agreed to the settlement while denying wrongdoing, offering eligible customers either cash payments with documentation or a $3 discount on the first $10 of purchases during a two-day redemption window.
- The in-store benefit redemption window runs June 1-2, 2026, at any Dollar General location nationwide, and consumers need not provide proof of overcharge to claim the discount.
