GOODLETTSVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Starting March 30, first responders, medical professionals and activated National Guardsmen will receive a discount at Dollar General stores.

The retailer said these professionals can present their employment badge or ID at most stores nationwide to receive a 10% discount of qualifying purchases.

"At Dollar General, we are deeply appreciative for the ongoing and brave work that our medical professionals, first responder communities and National Guard activated continue to perform during these unprecedented times,” said Todd Vasos, Dollar General’s CEO. “To demonstrate our heartfelt gratitude for these individuals’ tireless service to their communities, we are proud to help support them with this discount. On behalf of the entire Dollar General family, we would like to thank all of the physicians, nurses, pharmacists, paramedics, police officers, fire fighters, Guardsmen and other health care and front-line professionals working to support and care for our neighbors and communities."

The discount will be offered until April 30. Dollar General said the company may extend the offer in the coming weeks based on the status of the pandemic.
