If you’re a bargain hunter who lives for penny deals and massive clearance finds, you’re in the right place! Welcome to your Dollar General Penny List and Clearance Updates for 01/20/2026. Each week, select items drop to just $0.01 and deep clearance prices — and if you know where to look and when to shop, you can score unbelievable deals before they’re gone. This page is your go-to guide for everything happening in stores on Tuesday, including what to look for, how to spot penny items, and tips to maximize your savings at Dollar General.
This year will look a little different than in years past. Unlike previous seasons when we expected a quarter sale, clearance may not be dropping to 25¢. Instead, items may be moving directly from 70% off straight to a penny. That means once these products hit the system, they’ll ring up for just $0.01 — but only if your store still has them in stock and does not As always, availability will vary by location, and timing is everything when it comes to snagging these deals.
Important Penny Shopping Disclaimer:
Penny items are store-specific and inventory varies by location. Not all stores will have these items available, and some employees may remove penny items from the sales floor once they are identified. Always be polite, respectful, and understanding with store staff. Prices may change at any time without notice, and availability is never guaranteed. If an item scans for $0.01, the store is required to sell it, but once it’s gone — it’s gone!
Just a reminder — penny items are never guaranteed. You will only find penny items if your store does not pull them from the shelves or happens to miss them during markdowns. Inventory and store compliance vary by location, so some stores may have more luck than others. For the best chance of success, make sure you know how to spot penny items and scan correctly in the Dollar General app. 👉 Get the full step-by-step Penny Shopping Guide here:
