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.

The Orvis flagship store continues to be among the best reasons to spend some time in Manchester…read more(right up there with the Orvis outlet store, the Northshire bookstore and Pearl's Place restaurant). The flagship store carries all of the brand's best-known and new clothing items along with fishing and outdoor gear (you can get fly fishing lessons here, too). It's beautiful two-level store, roomy, outdoorsy with a knowledgeable and friendly staff. They welcome dogs, too! They have periodic sales, which we checked out on our most recent visit, and that's a good thing since Orvis clothing is of very high quality but not inexpensive. We are still wearing pants and shirts purchased a decade ago, and they have held up well. We also love their huge fireplace, a great place to sit and get warm when it's cold out (not like the 90-degrees when we stopped by). Men's clothing is on the first floor, women's on the second. We enjoy both.
