I am 17, and i went to get an application. The bottom of the paper says that no one under 18 is employeed by the Dollar General store unless approved by Human Resources. And there aren't alot of other places to work where i live. I won't work fast food unless i have to.

There are lots of reasons places do not want to hire minors.
Sometimes there are machines at different jobs that the law requires you to be 18 to operate. Also, the insurance they pay on their employees might be different for minors.

You should stay away from CashCreate, Treasure Trooper and other survey Web sites.
It is a waste of time and will cause you unhappiness.
If you choose to be suckered in and sign up to take surveys and receive, free trials considered you were warned. The minute you give them your credit card and personal information you have now opened your computer to unwanted cookies on your hard drive, annoying pop-up windows and if you are on a PC you open your computer to viruses that can wipe you out.
A lot of work to collect the "reward payments" that payout is not worth the effort over time. You will need to sign up for many types of offers, most of which require you to use a credit card. You start a week trial service with varies types of businesses or services, such as, an Internet service provider, book club, credit monitoring service, etc. to get your reward. If you don't cancel the trial, you end up being charged for the service and each service has different rules about how and when you can cancel. Very cumbersome!
Since you will need to sign up for at least a dozen offers before you get to $100 in rewards, it's very easy to forget what you have signed up for, or the problems you will have canceling in time to to be charged the full amount. The Cash Create recruiters you see here over exaggerate how much money you can earn because once you've done the high-dollar trials ($8-10 each), you are left with small rewards of a dollar or two. The survey business is not an efficient way to make money and you are more than likely to loose money in the end.

Apply anyway. They MAY hire you, it just depends on your application. If they like what they see (references, job history), they may hire you. You might get approved by human resources.
I know fast food is not anyone's ideal job. Have you tried a newspaper office or a grocery store?
What kind of businesses ARE in your town?

You answered your own question. It is the company policy not to hire anyone under 18. Contact their HR office for their final approval/disapproval.
