Unusual Character Prompts Dollar Store to Post Sign Outside Store

Dollar General stores seem to appear in every open field across America, earning them the reputation of being a running joke. It’s hard to deny the ubiquity of these iconic discount department stores, which offer a wide range of products such as clothing, household items, outdoor equipment, and groceries. Although each store follows the same format, they also possess their own distinct characteristics. For instance, there is a Dollar General store that boasts an unofficial rooster mascot named Fred.

When customers spotted the note on the door of one of the drink coolers, they knew they had to welcome him as well. The note started with the words, “Dear Customers, We have no control over Fred (the rooster). He doesn’t belong to any of us who work here, but we certainly enjoy his company.”

The note posted in the dollar store informs customers that the rooster is harmless and is likely searching for food. Customers are advised to keep the rooster outside of the store. Fred the Rooster usually lingers near the store’s entrance, attracting both fearful and curious customers.

The user who shared the images on TikTok claimed that the rooster took the place of a previous mascot named Mr. General, although we cannot confirm this. It is not uncommon for animals to seek shelter in areas frequented by humans, especially if they are lost or in search of food.

Many stores have a tradition of adopting stray animals as unofficial mascots, just like this dollar store with its resident rooster. Home Depot, a popular home improvement store, also follows this trend by adopting cats such as Leo and Cheeks from local rescues. These furry friends are responsible for keeping the store free from rodents. It’s heartwarming to see how animals can bring a smile to people’s faces. If Fred, the store’s beloved mascot, brings a smile to your face, feel free to share his story with others.
