The staff is wonderful and the shop is genuinely an authentic throwback to what toy stores felt like when I was growing up in the 60's. The prices are fair and reasonable. It's truly a "hidden gem!"

It's a cool store to visit, and the the staff was very friendly. Nonetheless with the advent of…read moreAmazon, and eBay most everything that was available is overpriced, and easily purchased for less elsewhere.

Right in the middle of the business district in Bellows Falls is this community bookstore, which…read morealso sells add-ons like calendars, datebooks and literary novelties (we liked the "banned books" bracelet a lot). The selection has a nice if not terribly deep mix, and there's a good group of books for young adults and children. We also liked the good choice of books about Vermont and New England. The staff was friendly, and we have the sense they are very much involved in their community, which we strongly applaud. We found some paperbacks we wanted and were pleased to see the store was busy during our visit. We'd endorse a stop here for anyone in the neighborhood.

I did not buy anything here but enjoying looking around.

Ollie's Bargain Outlet is basically, a general store on steroids. Sort of a country style Hammacher…read moreSchlemmer without the attitude. You can find fertilizer, home goods, dry foods, knick knacks, plumbing fixtures, you name it. You can find books, indoor and outdoor furniture, hardware, pottery and virtually everything under the sun. We came here after looking at a discount furniture outlet and saw this place. Bargains galore with a smile. We found the people quite friendly and helpful. One of the best bargain places I've been to.

Appears to have co-opted many of the features of the old Building 19 business that was popular in…read morethe greater Boston area until the company went out of business a couple of years ago. Signs, graphics (right down to the typefaces), taglines (Good Stuff Cheap), and marketing and the approach of the store seem to point to that fact. A lot of the same good and bad features of Building 19 are found here. Material is from distressed suppliers and similar sources, prices are lower than the usual retail, cleanliness is not at a premium, and the store is disorganized. If you can get through that and keep your eye on the bargains, you'll do alright. Don't expect to go here for pampering or for an "experience." Ollie's isn't selling that.

They have clothing, games, beauty products, home decor, souvenirs snacks and food and more! The employees were friendly and helpful and I will definitely go back when I am nearby. They have an ice cream stand " Miranda's" ( named after the family "matriarch") with a few lunch items.
