How to use "一点儿也不"

一点儿也不贵 : not expensive at all

我一点儿也不喜欢你: I don't like you at all / I don't even like you a bit.

一点儿也没有: not even a bit.

I guess you could translate 一点儿也不 as "not at all" or "not even a bit.."

In fact when I just started studying Chinese ( not such a long time ago ) I did what most people do, I looked up some foul language in my dictionary and I remembered my Oxford concise English - Chinese, Chinese - English gave "一点儿也不" as a translation for the f-word, I lost that dictionary on a holiday in Egypt so I can't check in what context it was used now.

by the way I have a question myself as well; are 一点儿也不 and 一点儿都不 interchangeable? or is 也 single & 都 plural?

I don't think saying "一点儿都不贵" instead of "一点儿也不贵" would be wrong, would it?
