Great place to get the necessities!
Bottom Dollar really reminds me of Phar-Mor back in the day. Yes, I'm that old! LOL! They are very similar to ALDI's. You bring your own bags but, you don't need a quarter to use a shopping cart. There is no deli, bakery or bank. Where Bottom Dollar shines is in their produce and meat department. The quality and prices can not be beat. The produce is in a separate cold room area. The employees are extremely nice and helpful. They are always bringing out boxes of fresh products to keep the shelves stocked. Other chains could learn a thing or two from them. (Wal-Mart, I'm looking at you!) You can find just about everything you could need in a store a little bigger than an ALDI's.
They offer brand names and a private label called "My Essentials". They even have a dollar isle where you can get tons of good deals for a dollar. Be sure to sign up for their free membership card to get even more savings.
Bottom Dollar won't take out Giant Eagle, Shop n' Save, Community Market or ALDI 's but, given the current state of the economy they are a welcomed new sometimes cheaper alternative.
