This is my favorite go-to store in Groton for gifts, clothing, bath & body products, purses, and…read morejewelry, actually just about anything. The store is always very clean and very well organized. The staff is very friendly, genuine, and helpful. The store manager, Mr. Valenti, is a very professional and friendly manager who is always willing to help the customers if there's ever a problem. I highly recommend this TJ Maxx on Long Hill Road in Groton. I've been in many TJ Maxx others and this one is far above the rest in selection, cleanliness, organization, and store associates.

Crystal Mall is an enclosed, two-level regional mall in Waterford, Connecticut. It is situated in a…read morecentral retail area off the Hartford Turnpike (Route 85), across from a smaller, open-air shopping center, Waterford Commons. The mall covers an area of 782,786 sq ft, making it Connecticut's ninth largest mall by area. Its primary trade area includes a trade population of 296,161 people, mostly serving the nearby towns of Waterford, Stonington, Norwich, Groton and New London. Many of the former stores like Macy's and Sears have closed in the past few years, on September 5, 2022, it was announced that Bed Bath & Beyond would be closing as part of a plan to close 150 stores nationwide which will leave Christmas Tree Shops and JCPenney as the only anchors left.

Was a little disappointed in a couple items as one was ripped and the other was missing two buttons. Was surprised to see the wire locks for all the bags, I guess they have as problem with those walking away. Too bad as I know most women want to take the bag to a mirror and see hope it fits in them.

Went in and safe there. First one had wheel stuck so hard to push, second one was the same. The third and last one dipped down as I pulled it as I saw it was missing a wheel. Luckily a customer leaving dropped their cart off so I was able to use that one. But others waiting after new were out of luck.

So many choices, huge snack collection, wonderful garden options for summer. I have to absolutely work this into my OSJL store shopping rotation because it's that amazing.

I personally think that this store is nice and relatively clean. I thought the shelves were…read moreorganized and well-kept in good condition when I visited that store back in early winter of 2019. As you might know, there it's a Big Y-like supermarket building that OSJL is using. You might recognize a building if you have been to a Big Y location that is housed in a similar building. If you wonder why, this store used to be a Big Y supermarket for a number of years before it closed and OSJL took over that location. OSJL (the closeout store) has been here for about 12 years now. Not to mention here, even before Big Y arrived, it was a short-lived Shaw's supermarket for a few years. Ironically, Big Y still owns the property although the supermarket chain left the building. The lease isn't up until 2022.

I gave this store 4 stars because they have a ton of different beauty products, however the area…read morewas kind of messy for makeup and they had a lot less designer items than other stores. The best find was the bareMinerals original loose powder kit, which unfortunately at the time only had the dark shade available. Their staff seemed decently friendly but quite busy and a little flustered. It was a bit more high traffic when I went (around 5pm), so that could also be the reason. The shoe section in this store was horrible, everything looked old and used and was all over the place. I would not consider buying shoes at this location. On the other hand, they did have a lot of great finds in home decor. This section was very well kept and stocked, there was a lot I was left inspired by. The young gentleman working this area was extremely amicable and willing to accommodate my baby and myself. I also did notice that they had a wide variety of clothing, so much better than the other stores I have been to. The clothing at this location is more reasonable in terms of what someone would actually wear and the pricing. I am seriously considering going shopping here for my daughter and myself. The best find for me was kids clothing and women's jeans, both of which were cheap for great brands such as Limited Too for kids and Lucky Brand Jeans. Overall I would say that this store is worth returning to. I do not consider this a 5 Star store, however 3 stars is too low of a rating. If they would clean up and restock their makeup and shoe department, that rating could change dramatically. One more plus is that they are pretty fast at checkout and keep enough people on registers to match the demand.

I suggested Walmart and she said that would be okay. This Walmart is not a Supercenter. They have a limited selection of food and groceries but they do have a full department of softlines. We did some browsing, checked some prices and in the end, found an inexpensive hoodie that would get the job done. A reasonable color, a good fit and the style that was desired. It's hard to so no. The store was decently stocked, the parking lot was tidy and there was no merchandise on the floor today. Overall, a pretty good Walmart. [Review 1066 of 2025 - 119 in Connecticut - 24620 overall]
