At selection and prices on produce paper goods fish and bakery. But nuts and nosh are expensive. I was in and out in less than 20 minutes today!


Paper goods at Bingo?

You mean the pack of 100 paper plates for about 1.50 that you can get in every store for that price? From what I remeber the plastic plates were not cheaper there either.

I did not make a spreadsheat comparing prices of every items but these are some items I noticed. Plastic cups $260 for 300. Clear plastic plates my shvig uses when lots of guest for Shabbis 1.99...3.50 in krm. Today I got 8 cupcakes disposal bekelech for 1.99.
I dont use paper plates but the plastic was $2 a pack. Not cheaper anywere else.

I was able to shop without the pushing, shoving, waiting for parking, shopping on the street, waiting on long line, searching for right item on cluttered shelves,or claustrophobia.

There, I itentified my feelings and the pros of the store.

For sure credit cards. I would assume food stamps too.

Some sort of satmar based hashgacha IIRC. They also carry a bet yosef line as well, also seems to be satmar type based but I don't remember off hand.

We started saving by going to Rosners!!! Bingo has the cheapest fish, but for some reason doesn't taste the same.

I haven't compared the stores but bingo can have great deals. However, it won't come out cheaper since you will end up buying a lot more Bec of sales and there are extras all over

KRM used to be the cheapest. Appetizing is a lot cheaper today's days. Especially in paper goods.

If I wanted to stock up on meat, fish, and cheese all in one place I'd probably go with Moisha's. They have a nice selection of all those things, reasonable prices, and generally well stocked.

KRM and Moisha's are the same management and have a lot in common. Besides for sales (where there is a lot of overlap but some differences) their prices are similar. The sales and selection cater a little more to each neighborhood (KRM - Boro Park, more traditional; Moisha's - Flatbush, more diverse) but I've noticed KRM catching up (like you used to find things like organic quinoa in Moisha's and not KRM, now there's more of that type of thing in KRM too)

I usually look up all the sales on watsonsale.com before heading into Brooklyn to decide where to go. Believe it or not a week or so ago I went to Gourmet Glatt, which I'd never paid attention to before, because they had really good sales on literally everything I needed, and it was great!

If you live in Brooklyn you might prefer to stock up with a big KRM/Moisha's type of trip for meat etc once a month, and then replenish your perishables at Rosner's weekly.

Not with Nosh. Somehow Flatbush has a smaller selection in General of Heimishe nosh. My mother buys her shabbos party for her Masores students in Appetizing.
