A penny item is a Dollar General product that has been discontinued and marked down to $0.01 in Dollar General's system. Stores are supposed to pull these from shelves, but they often remain, and they sometimes ring up for a single cent at the register. Whether a store will sell a penny item can vary by location and cashier, so it is never guaranteed. Penny General currently tracks 43213 such $0.01 SKUs.
No. At Dollar General the $0.01 exists only in the register — it never appears on a shelf tag or on the website, and penny items are removed from the online catalog entirely. Penny status is also store-specific, so an item at a penny in one store can be full price in another. Treat this list as a lead list and verify with the Dollar General app.
Penny General refreshes its catalog continuously as visitors browse and on a periodic full re-scrape. The data on this page was last updated 2026-08-21. Items that drop off the penny/clearance list are automatically removed.
Penny items are priced at $0.01. Clearance items here are everything else priced under 5¢ — roughly 254 near-penny SKUs. Use the price filters above the grid to switch between them.
Search this database by product name or filter by category, note the SKU, then verify with the Dollar General app at your local Dollar General. Pennies are never advertised in-store; this catalog surfaces the current discontinued/closeout SKUs so you know what to look for.
