This store has recently expanded into the former Rag Shop space and is one of only two health food…read morestores in the county that I know of. (Correction: there is a Seventh Day Adventist store near Hamburg also, thanks AW.) I was hoping they would add a tea cafe with some relaxing space, but there probably is not that much extra room. I have always found the owners friendly and find many new foods I am seeking first here, such as Daiya cheese and coconut creamer. Small independent brick-and-mortar stores can barely compete with the chains, so I can accept prices that are not rock bottom since I have cut down my consumption of other stuff. They give out good coupons for your points card and also for your birthday. They now carry vegan desserts from Good Eatz, and I used to come here years ago for their little salads and sandwiches when I worked nearby. If Uggs or Birkenstocks are your thing, you will find a good supply here. Their bulk section has things you can't get at Giant, and there is good fair trade coffee. Good selection of vitamins, toiletries, and makeup too, and I appreciate the expanded frozen section. I am sad to see meat in a health food store, but I guess you have to do that to stay in business. Any time I have asked for help, they always had an answer and are very knowledgeable about what they stock.

I always go to natures garden for gifts and great clothes and shoes. The staff is helpful and…read morefriendly.

Recently while vising a friend in her neck of the woods she introduced me to the Goodwill in her…read morearea. It's an outlet - which is very different than the retail store. We have an outlet in Lancaster which I visit often and thought ours was one of a kind. I found it unusual that there also wasn't a retail store attached or nearby but was excited never the less. The parking lot is undersized and parking was kinda of a hot mess. With no available spots and no street parking we ended up parking where they have the tractor trailers lined up for donations. This made me a little anxious as I wasn't sure parking here was even ok but my friend assured me it was fine. When we left other shoppers have taken my lead and also parked in that area. The inside is huge, much larger than the outlet I visit filled with bins and bins of unwanted items that didn't make the cut to the retail stores. A smaller room contained a few bins as well as shelves of glassware and there was an area dedicated to furniture although I didn't see any that I'd consider a bargain. If you're unfamiliar with the difference between a Goodwill outlet and a retail store it's best to educate yourself so you're not disappointed. The outlets consist of all the items Goodwill doesn't sell, couldn't sell, is off season, or have an abundance of. Everything is placed in large commercial bins (like industrial laundry bins) on wheels and you sort through and pay per pound. Clothes/housewares are one price, and glassware is another (and cheaper per pound). There's no rhythm or reason to the bins and you may need to sort through a lot of junk to find a piece worthy to purchase. But if you're like me and love a bargain and aren't afraid to "work" for it you'll enjoy the hunt. Some things to know: allow yourself enough time, as it's a time consuming process, wear gloves as many of the items are nasty, bring your own bags as they don't provide any. While the Lancaster location is smaller I think it carries better stuff, but since inventory is constantly changing it could just be that what I was hunting for wasn't there that day. In contrast in Lancaster when new bins roll out it's a free for all and you're allowed to dive right in. This location does a show and dance and teases you with rows of new bins covered with sheets and you're only allowed to rummage once they say so. Meanwhile people line up to secure their place in front. Be prepared to grab a cart upon entry as this location is also short of carts and we had to go back a second time till we finally secured one. Also be prepared to grab something if it even slightly interests you. Dealers come here and buy mounds of clothes for resale, often shipping them to the Caribbean or to fancy vintage shops in NYC. It's not the cleanest of places nor attracts the best clientele and people can be rude. You can't try anything on, but if you like it, it's worth the gamble as it's literally pennies per piece when you buy clothing per pound. It's also best to leave the kids at home. Happy pickings!

You never know what you're going to find here and can get some real treasures. . It's an outlet so…read moreexpect bins and bins to look through. Parking can be tight and you have to get lucky or get there early to get a cart. Everything is weighed by the pound. Currently it's 1.99$ q lb. Books are $.25. People can be rude but overall, the staff are very friendly and the process is smooth. About every 40 minutes they bring out new bins.

I've stopped at this target a few times with a friend and it's definitely an older target that…read morehasn't gone through any noticeable renovations which gives me nostalgia, but also it is really nice! It's definitely not busy or crowded but I was surprised at how well kept their sales floor was. I was easily able to find what I was looking for and their prices are better for grocery and such than my local Target which was refreshing. There isn't a whole lot of staff working but the cashier I checked out with was very friendly . All in all, a very pleasant experience!

In short, I was treated like trash by the clerk at the front entrance as I entered…read more This happened Saturday, 8/1/20, at approximately 7:30pm, in response to their new mask policy. I can't wear a mask due to very real medical reasons (blood pressure related), under my doctor's advise. Target had apparently rolled out a new (and already outdated compared to their competitors) policy on masks, but the clerk was either entirely ignorant to the details of the policy she was attempting to enforce, or she just wanted to rant at me in a sort of deranged power trip. She told me I couldn't come into the store due to store policy and state policy. My only option was curbside pickup. Period. Target's actual policy is: "Starting August 1, we're requiring guests to wear masks or face coverings in all of our stores, except for those with UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS and young children." State policy is essentially the same. The clerk would not show me their policy in print, so I had to look it up on their website after I left. I suppose if I had a heart attack in the middle of the cereal aisle, it would have been a preferred look for the store, than to show a little consideration for someone who has no problem with respectfully social distancing? I've been going to the Exeter store since it opened, but I will do my shopping at other grocery stores or farmers markets in the future, and all non essentials will be bought on Amazon.
