Ive worked for the company for over 2 years and still work for them. They do nothing but treat their team members very well as well as treating their customers very well and offer great prices on big name brand products. The company has proven to be very successful especially through the economic disaster America has been going through. Im proud to be apart of this company

I worked for family dollar for almost 3 years and infact was the manager of this very store in south end shopping center in hagerstown. The truth is that the rep on the phone lied. In my entire time with the company we were never told to send any product back for any reason, but were often told to destroy it and infact when an item is set to be destroyed it will come up in the register if scanned as "Do Not Sell". Keep in mind who you are giving your money to when you shop at these stores.

Family dollar in North, SC needs to be SHUTT THE FUCK DOWN!!! all the managers and assistant managers do is smoke crack, weed, SMOKE Ciggarettes, all day ON THE F..... CLOCK and harrass customers in the store with white hatred racism. They talk to their boyfriends outside, and in the store all day while watching others drive up and down the street. IF THE MANAGER AND CASHIERS ARE ALWAYS OUTSIDE...THEN WHO'S WORKING IN THE FUCKING STORE?? disgusted at North, SC family dollar need NEW STAFF.

I work there, You should see the dumpster some nights. I've sat and destroyed food that was "near" being out of date. slashed up clothes and even a few shoes, but not many, we sell to much. If a thing rings up for a penny, we have to destory it. I've never actually seen something shipped back to a company that has been marked $.01, ever. i've seen recalled items shipped back to be replaced. and i've seen computer parts shipped back, never anything that rings up for a penny.

i worked at a Dollar General and saw similar crap being done to usable products...clothes etc

@conjon11 nothing was wrong with them, they didnt sell as fast as family dollar would like so they destroyed them to make room for another product that might sell better and make them more money.
they clearance them, then eventually they drop them to a penny so they can destroy them and get a tax write off.
if they donated the shoes to a charity they still would have gotten a tax write off.
but then the people they donated them to wouldnt be spending money on shoes. FAMILY DOLLAR IS GREEDY

@bseven54 actually not far from the truth, much of the products family dollar sells are from china. and if you will watch their bulletin board or windows, you'll recalls on products that contain lead paint on a regular basis.

@Diezelraccoon that is a lie, family dollar has numerous law suits right now for the horrible way they treat their employee's
family dollar has also paid out millions in court settlements for breaking laws concerning pay, but only after they were summoned to appear in court and lost their case.
FAMILY DOLLAR IS HORRIBLE TO THEIR EMPLOYEE'S

@robbienewcome you are absolutely right!!! in the two years that i managed for family dollar they never asked me to send any product back. However the district manager did sleep with a store manager, and falsified managers assesment tests and she is still working there.
another district manager had an employee arrested because the bank teller called and told him the deposit wasnt in the drop box, only to find it later....after the employee was arrested and fired.

i used to manage for family dollar, it's not the govt... family dollar gets rid of products that dont sell in an allotted time. They have their store managers destroy the shoes because if they donated them to a local charity then that charity wouldnt be buying the shoes they needed.
FAMILY DOLLAR IS GREEDY!!!
-
the answer to the why is, once a product gets reduced to 1cent it can not be sold my FD standered
-
I work for FD..you should SEE what we are ASKED /TOLD to do and pitch when we work there..!!!

OMG - SHOES FOR GODS SAKE!!!
This is absolutely crazy, the new consumer act is too blanket and sense sense has gone out of the door!
These items and others like them could have been called into a central depot, checked out and sent to African Charities or similar.
Shame on the U.S Government

Thanks, Mike! I heard Europe had a similar law like CPSIA. What is it called and have you seen this kind of destruction of perfectly good items in the UK?
