we don't have those here, Darling, at least I don't think so, but it sounds a lot like Aldi's which we do have, with the quarter carts and own bags.

We have an Aldi's and a Save-a-Lot; no bags at either and neither charges for a cart. I didn't know other stores did that.

hey I like Sav A Lot, at least I did the last time I went a few years ago. And now there's an ALdi's across the street from it too. My friend lisa shops at them all the time, great deals. I should go back and see. I used to shop there all the time when I worked third shift in the late 1990s. it was like the third shift thing to do at work. Point out the good deals, and then go shopping together the morning of the last shift. can't get past the convenience of the stores right by me, or the selection, but if prices keep going up, I might have too.

I am hoping the farmer's market will help with some of the costs. I've never been to a Save A Lot or whatever it's called, but I've gone to Aldi's before. It's not too bad for the staples, and I don't mnind the cart thing since you get your quarter back when you return the cart.
