South Side Discount Groceries is an Amish-owned store known for its great prices on salvage groceries and household goods. The store is often busy and crowded, making it sometimes hard to find what you’re looking for or move through the aisles due to many shoppers and shopping carts. Despite the disorganization, the store is clean and well-kept, with friendly staff who work quickly at the old-fashioned cash registers. The store offers a wide variety of items, including groceries, canned goods, and household items like coffee, laundry supplies, and pet products, often at bargain prices. Since it’s a salvage store, customers are advised to check expiration dates carefully; most canned goods are dented but safe, though bulging cans should be avoided. Prices are very good, and many items remain in usable condition even after their “Best Buy” dates, with a good understanding that these dates are suggestions rather than strict limits. The store has expanded recently, improving the shopping experience, and remains a favorite for those on a budget. While some items may be expired or taste different, most shoppers find the deals worthwhile. Customers appreciate the friendly atmosphere and the helpful Amish staff, making it a popular spot for groceries, household goods, and pet supplies.
Always find some great deals and varieties with things in date. Also find things that have been there since the 1920s and scream botulism and diarrhea. Still our favorite salvage store in the area

If you're on a tight budget, there are bargains, however, be very selective. Some items may not taste the same as full price items, due to being expired. A very friendly staff and a very clean and well-kept store.
