NATCHEZ — Shelves are being stocked and construction is being completed at Magnolia Mall in what will be a new grocery store for the Miss-Lou.

The new 50,000-square foot grocery retailer will be a Cash Saver, part of a privately-held grocery chain owned by the Vowell family, the store’s manager Thomas McGahey said.

Located next to Dirt Cheep in the former Walmart location in the mall, the store will offer general groceries and dried goods like other stores, but will charge people differently than other grocery stores.

Items on the shelves will be marked at or near cost that the store purchased them, McGahey said.

When customers ring up their purchases at the register, the store will add a flat 10 percent rate to the total instead of having individual items marked up at different rates when they are placed on the shelves, he said.

“I know it may be a little confusing for some people at first, but when they see how much it can save them over time, I think they will be won over,” McGahey said.

The store will also have an eat-in deli that will be able to seat 80 people at a time, he said.

Though other stores named Cash Saver have in the past been located in the region, the Natchez store is not associated with them, McGahey said.

Cash Saver has a tentative opening date for late September, and will employ between 85 and 100 people, McGahey said.
