Not a lot by way of perishables, but even so ... and there are some bargains spectacular beyond normal. (How about GALLON sized cans of organic tomato and basil pasta sauce for ... wait for it ... $1.99? I'd pay at least twice that for a PINT of name brand sauce at a supermarket!) They've got a surprisingly wide selection for the size of the place, so you just might find yourself splitting your grocery budget between here and a market with perishables, and you'll save doing so.

How have I never reviewed ACME?? We visit this spot every time we're in Northampton. It's one of…read morethose places that you can find everything from school supplies to oddball hardware items to strange looking halloween masks (off season). Perhaps you need gardening tools? Or a Saturday Night Live inspired coffee mug? Perhaps a magnet with something about your horoscope? Rubber gloves? Cheap sweatshirt? Socks? Butt paste for babies? Seriously - this store is a blast. We always find awesome randomness that we didn't know that we needed (or even wanted) before we walked in there. Last year we found fantastic, really old baseball cards (don't eat the gum!!) and this time a combination of a great little gardening item, electrical tape, doorstops and a Northampton magnet! Love me som Acme Surplus!!

This store is a real trip - you will find one helluva totally random section of cheap crap everywhere. They have a wall full of "Slightly Out of Date" over the counter cold remedies and pain killers, cheap greeting cards, cheap Tee Shirts, cheap baseball caps, cheap school supplies, cheap socks and candy and sunglasses, and more varieties of masking tape than I ever knew existed. We picked up a long sleeve T shirt and some packing tape for a fraction of what we would have paid anywhere else. LOL- totally random stuff indeed !

That is the Fisher Home Hospice Shop: a marvelous showroom of timeless artifacts, clothes, books, games, and necessities that you might overlook or fail to live without. Let me give you a nice laundry list of my purchase of a tidy litany of needs, all for under a hundred dollars: Relevant literature/books for me, my new favorite clutch purse bag, snow gloves, two phone holders for vehicles, fine clothing for me and my family, household staples like notepads or three ring binder punches, and for sure my list could go on. Let's stop saying that the money you pay for these is too much or too little and instead look to what your purchase does: it funds the Fisher Hospice Home. This isn't your typical 'store,' and would be more fair to call it a non-profit venture. Volunteers maintain the store floor, swap out goods seasonally, review donations, and they all work as volunteers, for gratuity alone. The love they spend on what visitors might like is obvious, from their childrens' toy section, to their miniature library, to the household goods section. The space is maintained, full of light, and is accessible. What might challenge you is that what you find here is going to be more personal to you, instead of some wide class you happen to be a part of. That is what happens when you merchandise in timeless necessities--you would just as likely find a selfie stick here as you might find typewriter paper. What you leave with is actually liberating: there's no tracker of your behavior as a consumer, there's no brand loyalty that you're analyzed for, you're just a local shopper. Perhaps that's why the Fisher Home Hospice Shop feels like any internationally savvy visitor would visit, because what strikes you might be as surprising as any other bargain reseller, like Marshalls or TJ Maxx. Here, it's local, it's for a cause, and it's open to the public. A former friend recommended I visit the Fisher Home Hospice Shop, and I now regret I thought their advice meant I would only visit once! :)

Unless you have a car, it is likely that you have to endure the B43 bus...Oh B43 bus.. you and your 20 - 200 minute delays. Sweet Hampshire Mall memories. Basically the mall has a cinema ($8.95 Student ticket- show your ID), JC Penney, Bath & Body Works, Target, Trader Joe's, Video game stores, Craft stores. Not too far away, there's a Walmart, Whole Foods, Marshalls and Pet store close by. The mall has really evolved since I last attended my undergraduate years at UMass. There is now a cool arcade/bowling alley and escape room adventure company within the mall, and it really brings life to the place. Make sure you keep an eye for the student rush sales (usually the first week of the Fall semester) where stores participate in pretty good sales (think 50-80% off certain items, $5 beanbags, $1 notebooks etc).

On that Sunday, you could get 20% off your entire purchase. Not too shabby! I don't normally shop at Big Lots, but a friend told us about the sale, so we decided to check it out. We mainly looked at the furniture, sofas, and table/chairs. Big Lots is like a lot of other bargain stores and has a few great finds there. This location seemed about average in size and the guys who helped us were friendly and helpful. Not much else to add. Xie Xie!!

It had been a while since we had last been here and when we entered the store we were surprised to see how much they had in stock. The store itself had a ton of items but some aisles were a bit disorganized. That being said, we found everything we wanted which was really exciting. The only issue that we have when we come to this particular location is that the checkout aisle are horrendous. Quite often we have to wait forever to check out which can be a pain. In the end not a bad spot to shop and Big Lots usually has some pretty good deals!

Although some items were more costly than what I was willing to pay, I loved the simple design of certain tank tops and long sleeves to the intricate dressed and crop tops. Fun accessories included hair clips, tights, scarfs, jewelry and more. If it weren't already having stocked the area behind their desk with a pile of clothes already, we would have bought so much more. Quality seems great so I can't wait to wear our the forest green school girl skirt, deep red rose tops, and few workout shirts I purchased. Would love to come to this store again the next time I'm in the area!

Leans a little young, but I always find something I like there! The owner is also very nice. Last time I was there I had a bad experience unfortunately. I rushed over after work and was told they closed in 5 minutes. I knew I was cutting it close to closing but I knew exactly what I wanted and where it was in the store. However, I noticed the associate watching me closely as I looked for my size and I didn't want to be THAT person keeping her late, so I left without buying anything. I went to another store and then back to my car- which is when I noticed it was 5:55. The point being the associate at 25 Central rushed me out when I could have had time to find my size and make a purchase well before 6pm when they closed that day. I ended up driving to Hadley and buying a shirt at a big chain store- which is what I was trying to avoid! Maybe this is me getting old and grumpy, but I'm frustrated by how places like this don't serve the average working person. Most people work until 5:30, which gives very little time to get in and out of a store. On top of that, I actually did have time to shop and leave before closing, but was pressured to leave. If the owner reads these, I hope they are open to this feedback!

Enjoyed the plain apple cider donuts more than the sugar coated ones as they had a bit of a crisp to them. Even took some donuts home on the plane ride back and they were delicious, tasted fresh as we devoured them.

There's something for any age child here. Lots of Bruder cars/trucks. Lots of hands on toys & educational stuff too. It's big enough where you can take your time looking through all the cool offerings but not overwhelming. I know you can shop at Walmart & other big box stores but it'll never be the same as these small shops. The quality of toys & selection here are top notch & it's always great to keep money in the community.
