April 13, 2026 Deadline to File Claim in Dollar General Pricing Settlement

Customers who paid more or less at checkout than the price shown on a Dollar General shelf between Oct. 10, 2016 and Nov. 19, 2025 are included in the class for Braun v. Dolgencorp LLC d/b/a Dollar General, Case No. MID-L-00950-25, and must submit a claim by April 13, 2026 to seek relief. The class is described in court-style language as “all consumers in the United States who paid more or less for merchandise than the advertised price labeled on the shelf at a Dollar General store.”

Claims can be submitted online through the settlement website listed by the administrator or by mail; mailed claim forms must be postmarked by April 13, 2026 and sent to Braun v Dolgencorp LLC d/b/a Dollar General Settlement Administrator, 1650 Arch St., Suite 2210, Philadelphia, PA 19103. For questions, the settlement administrator phone line reported by multiple sources is (844) 262-4248. Claimdepot, one of the procedural sources, also lists an opt-out deadline of March 2, 2026 and a final fairness hearing on March 19, 2026.

Published reports conflict on the total fund. TopClassActions and Woman’s World state the total settlement as $8.5 million, while Claimdepot and TheKrazyCouponLady describe the settlement as $15 million or “at least $15 million.” Claimdepot explicitly frames its description as “Dollar General agreed to pay at least $15 million to settle a lawsuit alleging it charged customers prices at checkout that differed from those displayed on store shelves,” while TopClassActions repeats “Total Settlement Amount: $8.5 million.” The two figures appear in source materials without reconciliation in the provided records.

Individual relief reported in the materials includes cash and an in-store discount. TopClassActions and TheKrazyCouponLady list a potential cash payment “up to $20 per household” and a “minimum $3 in-store discount.” TheKrazyCouponLady adds operational rules for the $3 benefit: eligibility requires a DG account and registration by April 13, 2026, redemption during a two-day window excluding Saturdays, one-time use, and the coupon “can't be combined with Dollar General coupons, but you can stack them with manufacturer coupons.” Claimdepot notes the administrator “will issue payments to approved claimants and announce the in-store benefit two-day window after it completes claim processing and the court grants final approval to the settlement.”

Sources disagree on proof requirements. Claimdepot and TopClassActions state proof of purchase is required, and Claimdepot sets out that “cash payment claims require product purchase information, which includes item(s) purchased, price paid, shelf price, store location and date of purchase.” Claimdepot also says claimants must provide supporting documentation, either “proof of a pricing error complaint submitted to a government agency or Dollar General during the class period for which no refund was issued or photos or receipts of each pricing overcharge incident.” By contrast, TheKrazyCouponLady states, “Proof Needed? No, you don't need proof to file a claim. However, you may be asked to provide proof of purchase to support your claim after filing.”

The settlement remains “in progress” in the materials reviewed. Payments and the specific two-day in-store redemption window will follow claim processing and the court’s final approval, per the settlement administrator’s timeline reported by Claimdepot. If you believe you fall within the class described in Braun v. Dolgencorp LLC, the record supplied to reporters shows April 13, 2026 as the deadline to submit a claim or have a mailed claim postmarked.
