While I was in Scottsville for their VBS, I did manage to stop by the local Pamida. I checked prices and found some good deals and others slightly expensive. For example, volleyballs were on sale for $5, while Hot Wheels cars cost $1.27 (not a bargain considering they’re 97 cents at Walmart).
They do develop film there. For $7.99 you can get 6 inch double reprints….which is slightly expensive compared to about $5.99 at Kmart.
The whole concept of Pamida is fascinating. Building stores in the few places where Walmarts don’t exist. You gotta wonder what their delivery schedule is like. Delivering to out of the way places off the beaten path.
You gotta love the Scottsville folks. Dollar General is inexpensive, but way too limited to find what you’re looking for. Pamida has most of what you’re looking for, but is slightly expensive compared to Wallyworld. So Scottvillites (Scottsvillians?) drive 30 miles out of the way to Bowling Green’s Walmart to save a few dollars on domestic products.
Scottsville’s VBS was based on the Jonah story. 4 straight nights of the fish story. I didn’t know there were so many messages in this story. But apparently there might be. Such as the people’s refusal to repent; Jonah’s frustration and disobedience toward God; Being swallowed by the fish.
