The Dollar General survey mail in entry route has closed, and the paperwork behind it has gone as well. A postal lane did exist, attached to an entry period running to 2 February 2025 and drawn a week later. The ruleset carrying it sat on the survey domain, and that path now returns a blog. Dollar General's own page mentions no draw, no address and no free route of any kind.

What you need
9 itemsHow to take the survey
Understand why a postal lane is there at all
American law will not let a purchase be the only way into a prize draw. A promotion keyed to a receipt has to open a route costing nothing but a stamp. Take away the draw and the obligation goes too.
Read the dates before the address
The last documented entry period ran from 25 March 2024 to 2 February 2025, with the drawing on 9 February 2025. A card posted now arrives more than a year after the prizes were awarded.
Try to open the document that carried the route
Survey platforms of this kind serve their rules from a fixed path on the survey domain. Read on 25 August 2026, that path returned the general-interest blog now occupying dgcustomerfirst.com, on both the bare host and the www one.
Treat the circulating address as unconfirmed
Guides quote a post box in Macedon, New York, and they quote it consistently. Consistency between pages copying one expired file is not corroboration, and nothing reachable now dates it or shows it accepting anything.
Notice what Dollar General itself says about all this
Nothing. Its survey page names DGCustomerFirst.com, an invitation code and special discounts. No prize, sponsor, entry period or postal route appears in the first-party statement.
Keep the stamp until three things line up
A live free lane arrives with a named sponsor, a current entry period and a rules file that opens. None of the three could be found here, which is why no address is printed on this page.
If something goes wrong
I found a Dollar General sweepstakes address and want to use it
- Cause
- It comes from a ruleset that can no longer be opened
- Fix
- Hold off. Nothing reachable dates that box, names a current sponsor or shows a promotion accepting entries through it.
Several pages give the same post box, so it must be right
- Cause
- Repetition across guides copying one expired file is not confirmation
- Fix
- Check the link. Every one of them points at a path that now returns a blog.
I want to enter without buying anything
- Cause
- No current draw exists to enter
- Fix
- There is no draw. The free lane belonged to a promotion drawn on 9 February 2025, and with nothing running there is nothing for a postal route to be an alternative to.
I posted a card and heard nothing
- Cause
- No promotion with a current entry period could be found
- Fix
- Nothing was open to receive it. Prizes under the last documented ruleset were awarded more than a year ago.
Why is the box number not printed here?
- Cause
- The promotion behind it has closed and the document is unreadable
- Fix
- Printing it would send readers to spend postage on a drawing already held, with nothing available to confirm the address was ever right.
What’s fixed, and what actually varies
This is the weakest paperwork position of any survey covered on the site. The route existed, the promotion ended, and the file that described both has gone offline with the domain.
Fixed
- The last documented entry period ran from 25 March 2024 to 2 February 2025
- Its drawing fell on 9 February 2025
- That promotion gave 450 winners at ten per weekly period, worth more than $45,000
- Entry was open to people of 18 or over in the United States and the District of Columbia
- The rules path on the survey domain returns a blog on both hosts
- dollargeneral.com mentions no draw and no postal route
Varies
- Whether the post box in Macedon, New York was ever the current one
- Whether anything is still collected from it
- Whether a successor promotion exists and simply has not been published
- What special discounts is worth when it is redeemed
Follow the terms link on any page offering you an address. Where it opens, read the entry section and check the dates. Where it returns something other than a rules document, you are looking at an address with nothing behind it, and no way to correct it if it is wrong.
How Dollar General compares
Three postal routes, and three different reasons to keep the stamp.
| Chain | Free route published | Can the document be opened? | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dollar General | Yes, in a ruleset now offline | No, the path serves a blog | Entry closed in February 2025 |
| Family Dollar | Yes, by the survey operator | Yes, the file still opens | Entry closed at the end of 2025 |
| Chipotle | No readable document shows one | No, the rules link returns a 404 | Entry needed no purchase anyway |
Promotions and their rules change without notice. A dated ruleset beats this table.
Family Dollar shows what the good version looks like: an operator-hosted file that still opens, with dates you can read for yourself. Dollar General had the same kind of document and lost it, which leaves an address in circulation and nothing at all to check it against.
A route with no document left to describe it
Postal entry routes are a legal artefact rather than a courtesy. American sweepstakes law prevents a purchase from being the only way into a prize draw, so a promotion keyed to a receipt has to open a lane costing nothing but a stamp. That is why these addresses exist at all.
The last documented Dollar General survey sweepstakes ran an entry period from 25 March 2024 to 2 February 2025, drawn on 9 February 2025. Ten winners a week each took a $100 Dollar General gift card, 450 winners in total, more than $45,000 in prizes. Entry was open to people aged 18 or over in the United States and the District of Columbia. A postal lane sat alongside the online survey, addressed to a box in Macedon, New York, and every guide covering this topic still prints it.
None of them can show you the document. Survey platforms of this shape serve their official rules from a fixed path on the survey domain, and Dollar General's did. Requested on 25 August 2026, that path returned the general-interest blog now occupying dgcustomerfirst.com, on the bare host and on the www one. The rules did not move. They went offline with the domain.
So the position is worse than an expired promotion, which at least leaves paperwork you can date. Here the address survives in copies while the file that gave it meaning does not, and nothing published by Dollar General mentions a draw, a sponsor or a postal route at all.
That is why no box number appears on this page. An address with no readable parent document and no live entry period is not a route into anything. Saying so is the only honest handling left.
Questions people ask
Is there a Dollar General survey mail-in entry?
There was, attached to a promotion whose entry period closed on 2 February 2025. Nothing published now describes a route, an address or a draw to enter.
What about the post box people keep quoting?
It names a town in Macedon, New York and comes from a ruleset that can no longer be opened. Nothing reachable dates it or shows it accepting entries.
Why do so many pages give the same address then?
Because they copied one file before it went offline. Agreement between pages reading the same expired document corrects nothing when the document has gone.
Does Dollar General publish a free entry route?
No. Its survey page names DGCustomerFirst.com, an invitation code and special discounts, and the absence of any sweepstakes, sponsor or postal lane from a statement that short is itself the clearest signal available about whether a draw is currently running.
Why is the address not printed on this page?
Because the promotion has closed. Printing it would invite postage spent on a drawing already held.
How will I know if a new route opens?
It will appear inside a dated ruleset naming a sponsor and an entry period, linked from the survey itself rather than found in a search result.
