Default cut stock springs need new shcoks

I have an 01 trans am with 123,xxx miles and the shocks are getting wore out. Its bottoms out frequently. Car has cut stock springs and Im looking for new shocks. Any suggestions?? I wasnt really looking to spend koni $$. Do you I need adjustable shocks..car is used for a daily driver..drag maybe once a yr so thats not a big deal.
