I had a very unpleasant experience at Stop & Shop. While checking out, I mistakenly thought the…read moretransaction had been completed and started to walk away. It was simply an honest mistake. An employee named Shane called out to me in a way that I found very rude and unprofessional. In addition, the employee who was bagging my groceries, a blonde woman wearing glasses, reacted by saying "Oh boy" in a clearly sarcastic tone. I completely understand that an employee needs to let me know if the payment process has not been completed, but there are respectful ways to handle situations like this. I do not think it is appropriate to treat customers with sarcasm or make them feel uncomfortable over a simple mistake. I hope management takes this type of behavior seriously and reminds employees of the importance of treating every customer with courtesy and respect.

I try to avoid this store if possible and I always check expiration dates on products because I…read morehave found cans of food that had expired months earlier. Recently there were multiple cans of condensed milk with an August 2025 expiration date that I found while shopping in November 2025. I also bought flowers one day and was charged a donation fee for absolutely no reason for a charity that the store was helping out through a special promotion (this was explained to me by a clerk when I complained about the extra charge). There was no signage advertising this at all. Can you imagine being conned into supporting their charity? Luckily, I always choose self-checkout and try to match prices with the amount being rung up. Just tonight I was charged $3.50 or 2 for $7.00, for plants that had a sign stating $2.50 or 2 for $5.00. I also had a small tub of prepared fruit with a sticker that said $3.12 but was charged $3.84. I went over my receipt when I got home and found the overcharge. I also hate their stupid robot. It's intrusive as well as annoying. Clements on Hope Street has better customer service and some items are even cheaper than Stop and Shop. I wish there was a Shaw's grocery store closer than Barrington or Middletown.

I've been a customer of this establishment for years now,…read moreand it seems that they're at the point where no one knows how to be a professional, except for a select few. The quality of the product is always excellent, I will say. However the unprofessionalism is something that is not only a deterrent for customers, but also why I keep seeing new faces, again, except for a select few. I wouldn't not recommend NEA to a person, but I will no longer be recommending them either as the "best in the city". My two cents would be, tighten up.

I wanted to get two O Cedar flip mops at Ace Hardware since I had a 25% off coupon. The website…read moresaid that this particular store in Bristol had 19 in inventory so we decided to go and get them. I could not get them online since the maximum was ONE mop per transaction. So we stopped at the store and went to the mop and broom section. No O Cedar flip mop to be found...when I asked one of the staff members about the item, I showed her the item on their Ace mobile app and she went on their system to check for inventory...she said, they had none in the store...but the mobile app said they did.... Confusing... She said, I can order from our warehouse and you might be able to pick up next week, I said, yes...so I can use my coupon. When she went to get the special order entered, the system said that they are no longer getting any more of these mops.... Weird how the mobile app inventory and the store inventories do not seem to talk to each other... Unfortunately we left the store empty handed....

Their large space had a vast assortment of frames and mats from which to chose. I was expertly assisted in deciding on minor details like which mat best complemented the art, how to best size the mat, and which frame looked best. The work that they did for me was meticulous. The turnaround time was quick and pricing was reasonable. The staff was cordial and professional, and respectful of the art with which I entrusted them. I will return to Crestar for my future framing needs, and I recommend them without hesitation.

LeeAnn is simply the best. The Individual Icons studio is right on the water in Warren - totally…read morepicturesque. And the handcrafted metal "jewelry that works" that LeeAnn crafts at the studio is nothing short of magical. Industrial beauty. I first met LeeAnn and bought my first piece of her jewelry, the compass ring, at a RISD sidewalk sale 3-4 years ago. It's been a favorite piece of jewelry ever since. This weekend LeeAnn opened up her studio for a sample sale. And it was FUN! One of a kind pieces at bargain prices: working level earrings, repurposed screw cufflinks, thermometer charm, metal ruler bracelets. Chainmail everthing. Diamond dust! The list goes on. Browse the website - the individuality, craftsmanship, and beauty speaks loud and clear for itself. It doesn't sound like a sample sale is happening again anytime soon, and the Warren location is a studio, not a store with standard hours, but DEFINITELY keep Individual Icons in mind for irreplaceable gifts for yourself or a loved one! She does custom orders, too. And be on the lookout for LeeAnn at craft fairs throughout the state and New England. As a disclaimer, this jewelry is art. It is handcrafted. And therefore it's more than you'd pay for a pair of earrings at Claire's.... if you get my drift. But the pieces are timeless and absolutely worth saving up for and investing in. Wearable art is the best kind of art! Thank you thank you thank you LeeAnn for hosting this weekend at your studio and offering your treasures at below retail for the special event. I hope to visit the studio again soon!

I went to Stella Marie's flagship store on Main Street in Warren today, and I was so impressed with…read morewhat owner Kim has done in the three short weeks she has been open. She is at a great location, and between the light from the big front windows and the way that Kim has set up her shop, it is cozy beyond belief. I am sensitive to fragrances, which is why I gravitate toward Kim's handmade soap, and the scent in her store is just present enough to make you want to buy every thing there. The walls are painted a beautiful 50s sea foam, and with the old fashioned tub and the vintage General Electric steel refrigerator door on the wall, it gave such a funky feel to the kitchen and bath goods she has on display. Handmade pillows, coosies, pot holders, ceramics, and of course, SOAPS! I was there to put some of my crafted goods on consignment, and I bought two giant bath bombs for girlfriends I was meeting later. They were scented in Cool Cucumber and Tangerine, and both smelled amazing and sent my friends over the moon. I have been a fan of Stella Marie since I moved to Rhode Island more than 4 years ago. I am so happy to have an actual storefront to go to now!
