Price Rite

Since this store is within walking distance from my place, I often find myself here to buy grocery. Although it is cheaper than most places, but they don’t carry many of the brands and items that I like. They definitely have the basics, and it is always nicely stocked. I like the fact that the store is always clean. That is a major plus for me. However, I don’t like the fact that I have to bag my own grocery.

What a great store! We visited after reading the good reviews and I totally agree.
This store is clean, organized and the staff is helpful.
All produce is fresh and prices are great.
Checking out was quick.

Love this place! I stopped shopping at other grocery stores, including Target and Walmart because this place is so much cheaper, but with the same quality of items. I went here the other day and got 68 items for $ 105 dollars. WUT.
They have a really nice produce section with a variety of items and nice selection, including things like tofu and egg roll wraps. Bananas are typically 49cent a pound, cilantro is 49 cents a bunch, yogurts are 39cents each and larger tubs are $ 1.79 versus $ 2.50ish at Target. I stockpiled the hummus at 99 cents a tub. The only issue is that sometimes they don’t have some of your favorites, so when they do, stock up. For example, they sometimes don’t have/​run out of pita bread and (not) coincidentally hummus, but then I find new things in their wake. Adds a little variety to the kitchen. And it’s worth it when I can get a 3 pound bag of high quality onions in excellent shape for 69cents. I felt guilty leaving the store like I robbed it. THE DEALS WERE SO GOOD.
This store is exceptionally clean, well stocked, organized and has really friendly, helpful and nice employees. Bring your own bags, but you can buy them there. Once you pay, move over to the counter and bag your own goods. They often play 90s jams that make me hover longer in the aisles. The store is usually not overly crowded, especially if you go after 6 on weeknights. It’s about 23 094 234 times nicer than any Aldi’s experience, which usually features 30 kids having a tantrum simultaneously, at least one exploded tomato on the floor and a collapsed cardboard structure or two. Gross.
Anyways, I absolutely love this place and can’t recommend it enough. If you go, please leave your 30 children having tantrums simultaneously at home. I’m trying to listen to my 90s jams!

Great brands at low prices. This is not one of those cheap but crappy grocery stores. Produce and vegetables are fresh. They mainly sell branded items and the prices are amazing.
Why would anybody go to Safeway, Giant or other grocery stores for ordinary grocery shopping is beyond me. There are things they don’t have. If you want good quality cheese you’d better shop elsewhere but for most things they have very high quality products at amazingly low prices.
Highly recommended.

Think Aldi’s business model (off-​brand items, slightly shorter store hours, no coupons, bag-​your-​own groceries at checkout), and Aldi’s prices, but with a much better selection of produce and international/​ethnic food items, and a much larger store than the Aldi on 17^th St NE, and you’ve pretty much got PriceRite of Hyattsville.
Switched most of my household shopping over to Price Rite in August, and I’m very glad I did. It’s just half a mile further from home than the Rhode Island Avenue Giant (my previous go-​to grocery), and the slightly longer distance is more than made up for in the cost savings, especially on produce, dairy, and eggs, which are consistent staples for my household. Chicken is also a consistently good deal at PriceRite (usually around $ 1.99/lb for wings or boneless breast, $ 1.19/lb for thighs). This store also runs periodic sales on large bags of frozen fish fillets — for example, I purchased a 5-​lb bag of swai fillets for $ 12.99 in August ($ 2.60/lb for fish? Never seen that at Giant or Safeway!), which provided my husband and me over a month of semi-​weekly fish dinners.
Many household paper & cleaning items are cheaper at PriceRite than at other grocery stores in the area, and cost savings on dry and canned goods are often significant — caveat being that for some non-​perishable food items, this PriceRite only carries the versions laden with unwelcome added sugars. However, I’m willing to make a once-​a-​month trip to Giant or Wal-​Mart to stock up on natural peanut butter, high fructose corn syrup-​free soy sauce, and the handful of other things that I can’t find at PriceRite.
While this PriceRite store may occasionally lack items (like the aforementioned natural peanut butter) that are standard fare at stores like Giant or Safeway, it does carry halal meat, and lots of Latin American, Caribbean, and Asian products (vegetables, snacks, sauces, spices, seasonings) that I’ve never found in any other grocery store in the DC area, and also wins points in my book for carrying half sour pickles, a solid selection of Italian products, and lots of NJ produce. Sort of feels like a trip back home to NJ and a global adventure all in one every time I shop at PriceRite.
However, PriceRite’s biggest draw for me by far is the savings. Even with religiously planning weekly meals around items on sale and using club card discounts and coupons, I usually spent $ 75-​$ 90 per week on food and household/​personal care items at Giant for my household of two. At PriceRite, I can purchase roughly the same «consumer basket» and spend $ 45-​$ 65 per week — to cook the vast majority of meals at home for 2 people. Well worth the journey from DC to PG County for that kind of savings.

This is a very unique store. They are able to keep the prices low by having a smaller staff, having you buy your own grocery bags (or you can always bring your own), and having you bag your groceries yourself. Also, every item isn’t out on a shelf but displayed in their original bulk, cardboard boxes. I find that this makes it a little harder to find items in the store, but it’s not that big of a place to begin with.
Some of the produce is good, some isn’t (I saw such SAD cilantro one day!). I come here mostly for baking items, rice, and other dried goods.
Give it a try! If you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for, there’s the GLUT food co-​op a few blocks away.

This place is a great option for basic groceries — don’t pass it by to get to a Safeway or Trader Joes because it sounds like one of those generic food stores with off brand stuff you don’t recognize. This isnt one of those places. It’s actually really great. It is just «new» — but very much worth trying. You WILL find your regular favorite brands for most items — I promise. Chobani yogurt .99 not 1.40 like other stores. SILK 3.00 and change not 4.50+ like YES Market. Meat options– perfect. Veggies — perfect. Sweet potatoes are massive and yummy. Fruit here is beautiful. Bring your own bags if you don’t want the .10 per bag charges. Definitely a «do».

Amazing prices, veggies and fruits very fresh also the meats.
Love it, never going to giant or Safeway ever again.
