I live in Southern California, in my town we have Walmart and Aldi plus a few regular grocery stores. I drive 45 minutes to an hour away for Costco and Sam’s Club. Another 30 minutes drive passed those is a Winco though great prices I’m not sure it’s worth it for the gas price and living in a desert where it gets 120 + degrees we have to pack coolers. Sometimes I find it’s worth the extra money just to shop close to home .
Jamerrill Stewart goes to the one in Winchester, VA. I live about an hour northeast of that one. I Shopped there once, and it definitely has great prices. My kids are all grown and out of the house, so I don't need to have as much food in my house anymore and mostly stick to Walmart and Aldi.
I would love to shop at sharp shopper and get deals on the things I use and stock heavy up on . With that said I think all the things Jarmell stocks up on is what she uses regularly.. I also believe it depends on your access of the amount of grocery stores you have available in your area! In my area we have no cheaper stores so I would love to have aldies and sharp shopper ❤❤❤
I agree. We have gone twice while visiting in PA and there were a few gems but overall I didn’t get the hype. However, the store I went to didn’t appear to have the same variety that I see in Jammerill’s videos.
How fun to see that you visited our area! It would have been great to run in to you and the girls. I’m glad you stopped at the thrift store that is there. I love to go there! There are a number of the little local stores like you visited ,but I had not been to the one you stopped at in Reedsville. Looking forward to checking it out!
Welcome to Mifflin County! Sharp Shoppers are great stores to visit now and then but because the stock isn't standard, it isn't possible to go there with a list. Something to keep in mind is the closest Costco to that area is Harrisburg (70 miles) or Lancaster (90 miles), so not the best option. There is an Aldi in Lewistown but it is relatively new.
What amish bulk store do you go to? I am in York PA. I drive to the sharp shppper in Middletown which is 40 min away. I usually buy, frozen waffles, cereal bars, yogurts and frozen things and think it is way cheaper than Aldi.
Thank you for checking it out, I will continue to prefer Aldi. They have a good selection of Bobby approved items including organic meet. One is coming close to me in the new year. I love watching you, thank you.
For a large family costco does have some good deals but they are to expensive to shop for us anyway. I do love aldi and i use to love our grocery outlet but the have become more expensive then the major chains. Im in California and everything is ridiculous here lol
We do not have Sharp Shopper stores in Canada but it was fun to discover this store with you! Were I live I shop at a Walmart Superstore, The Great Canadian Superstore and Costco for the best prices. We also have a store called Food Basics and their prices are good. However, they don't carry most of the things I normally buy. Take care ❤❤❤and God bless.❤❤
If you have to drive any length to go to Sharp Shoppers it doesn’t look worth it for you only getting 3 items…if it’s on your way to wherever you are going then maybe worth it.
I think you touched on a couple of things that would stop me from going to these stores. 1. An hour drive to our Costco or Sam’s is not worth it to me. I stick to my local Amish bulk and discount stores. I shop at a VERY SMALL Kroger. 2. I do not go to Walmart or any type of superstores. It can tempt me to buy things I really don’t need. The prices may be cheaper on a few items but if I buy things such as clothing or decorative items then I’ve blown my budget. 3. I agree for people that don’t have discounted stores the prices at sharp shopper are fantastic, especially in VA where Jamerrill is located. (We have family there). It would have been interesting to see how your store compares to the VA store. Thanks for sharing!! We are from northern Indiana which has Amish stores just about on every corner. ❤
There is a sharp shopper in Middletown, PA. I have gone there maybe 3 times. The last time I was there, everything I was interested in was out dated. I will go again, just not a frequent visit.
I live in central Pa also. I probably live in the middle between you and Bellville. I like shop sharper but you definitely need to check dates. I don't go often just occasionally. I usually end up on spending money on junk foods. I'm trying to avoid. I live 45 minutes from Bellville so I don't stock up on frozen food.
I occasionally go to Sharp Shopper not as much I used to 20+ years ago, pre-aldi days lol The prices for canned goods, odds and ends are good but I wouldn’t do a whole shopping trip here..
Thank you for checking this store out. I was not impressed. It looked like a glorified dollar store with a bunch of junk food. Small amount of not questionable items. I’m sorry for judging so harshly but it’s not for me.

My store in PA never has what her store has
Did you stop by the John Henry store as well? She finds lots of produce there.
Reminds me of a sav-a lot that I shopped at in Kentucky. Of course there’s not one under that name here in Georgia .

Here in Texas, DFW south we have HEB and it’s good quality and great deals every week.

I have store names in my bulk food video descriptions ☺️

Aldi is great! I love their prices too!

That is a good point. 😊

It sounds like you have a great system for staying on budget!
@ I try 😆 I just get tempted at the big stores

It also depends on what people eat because not everyone eats like you.

Depending on travel time, gas prices, etc, sometimes it is cheaper to shop closer to home.
You’re totally right!
Great review of the store. It reminds me of Bylers. Definitely a place you go to without a list.
Not a cosco fan but i do love aldi and sharp shopper!
I occasionally go to Sharp Shopper not as much I used to 20+ years ago, pre-aldi days lol
The prices for canned goods, odds and ends are good but I wouldn’t do a whole shopping trip here..
It definitely isn’t a one-stop shop!
Sadly the closest one to me is 16 hrs away 😂
I think the grocery store you visited is unique to Pa. I do have an Aldi near me and United Grocery Outlet but going to that one is hit or miss.
Pa and Va
There are 2443 ALDI Locations in the United States.
Sharp shoppers are only in PA and VA
We have a sharp shopper in my state but it's 2-1/2 hours away from me so I haven't gone there yet.
Gosh I wish we had this in Mass/CT!
As far as I can tell they are only in northern virgina and PA
So Beautiful Video
They are not in my state, only PA and VA.
What is name of the store
Sharp Shopper.
@KatWrangler thanks
@KatWrangler thanks
It looks like a lot of junk food.

You are not harsh. It's your opinion. I think the same. I am not from the US, either way.
