Was seriously disheartened to find, when I got home and decided to take the price tag off, that a large blemish was underneath the 'SOLD AS IS' price tag sticker, which completely hid the significant blemish from view. I would not have bought this item if I had seen the damage.How are you guys going to cover up a significant defect with a 'SOLD AS IS' sticker. What a sick joke. An experience I won't forget.

In the front they have a sign with the sales of the day which were vast (spoiler: I got six items for $6.). The aisles are well spaced out and clear signage with pricing. The staff were helpful, patient, friendly. A staff member politely showed me where the bathroom was while manning the register. I felt the items were organized well although I did notice the men's section in particular was lacking in selections of pants and shorts for men. However, I also understand the items in store are dependent on whatever gets donated. Will definitely be visiting again! I got 2 onesies for my infant baby girl, two books, a vase and a mug.

I have been meaning to check this place out for many, many months and today was the day. I was…read morereally curious to see what kind of clothing I could snag for $1.50 a piece. The woman who owns the shop came out to say hello, as I was browsing the racks of sundresses out front. She was quite friendly and let me know how her little boutique is set up. It's largely women's clothing, shoes and accessories. But there are some mens and even a small childrens section. The place is nicely organized by size and color and has a shabby chic boutique feel. My favorite thing about shopping resale shops in this area is the typical abundance of vintage items. It seems this place gets clothing thru donations? So obviously selection will vary, but today, I would say around half the clothing items were vintage. I scored a cool vintage Star Wars tshirt and a long sweater cardigan that looks brand new and didn't even spend $4. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because of their payment system. I asked if there was a minimum purchase required to use my card, and her son said nope. Great! When I handed him my card, I then realized he was using his phone to manually put all my card information into some app to process payment. It made me uncomfortable. They seem like really nice people and I know the shop has been there for some time now. So I reassured myself it's probably ok. But honestly, next time I will stop and get cash. I'd rather not have to worry about if a stranger has my card info saved in his phone.

Basically shot us down,"I don't want short term renters in MY neighborhood!" Then, when I was ready to purchase something, I had to get their attention b/c they were discussing "decorating". After giving my appalling experience some thought, I reconsidered my purchase (I can't support a local business in a town who is rude to visitors) and decided to return it the following day, only to to be told, "Store credit only"! I hadn't even removed it from the tissue in the bag! She hemmed and hawed and finally gave credit on my card. I have a feeling that store credit is not good for a year or more until I return next year. Out of town visitors, please beware.

Cute gift shops/boutiques that would be good for last minute Xmas gifts... Found a fun magnet that would be a nice memory of the trip and proceeded to check out. The staff member and I engaged in conversation...she asking where I was from and I telling her Michigan. She then proceeded to tell me, "You have a horrible governor!". To which I replied, "I actually like her." She then said, "Well, I guess this conversation is over!" Your political views should not be something you publicize at your job/work - especially to patrons who you have no idea what views they hold...I should have returned the magnet and got my money back. I won't patronize this shop going forward.

For me, this outdoor strip "mall" is a mix of both good and bad…read more The only real reason I ever visit here is that it the closest, decent "mass retail" hub near where I live. The GOOD: The Publix here is one of the best in our area. A former Albertsons, then a Safeway, it is very large and managed well. The Target is OK, but often jam-packed. I prefer the quieter shopping experience at the other store on Park street. The Petsmart is great and the service is always friendly. The staff at the Michael's location here are always very helpful. I find the Labcorp location to be the best and most efficient that I have ever visited. Smiley Thai is one of the best kept Thai take-out "secrets" in our area! The BAD: There is a significant amount of "bad characters" that often congregate here, especially after dark. Unfortunately, this appears to be more common when there is a major "bus hub" in the area, like the one just south of Target. There always seems to be a small group of them loitering just south of the Publix, hoping that I have spare wealth to gladly and willingly give away for unknown reasons. My apologies, but I am on a strict budget. Don't ever fall in love with a smaller store here. They come and go often. The turnover rate is quite high. I miss that "Bulk Nation" location! They used to have my favorite movie theater here, but I have not been to any since 2013. People constantly checking their cell phones every 5 minutes ruined the experience for me, forever. Never again So try your luck, you may really enjoy shopping here!

We went in, and golly -- I was hooked! Super cute styles that function almost as a capsule wardrobe, because nearly everything goes with nearly everything, and is made with a wonderful, performance jersey. I love that they have some things that are a bit longer than Lilly Pulitzer and others; there is a jersey skort, made from kind of a waxed cotton (not sure how it is categorized) that won't show your whole backside when you're golfing. They also carry a ruffled v-neck, sleeveless top in a myriad of colors and prints, that will get you around the "collared" shirt requirement on the course. My friend found a darling dress with a-line shoulders and lots of straps/cut outs, in a beautiful navy and green print. It was mine! Pricing is not "cheap," but neither is the quality, and you'll find it's a good bit less expensive than Lilly Pulitzer; Jean Pierre Klifa; Spartina; and other brands with similar colors; material; and quality. To me, that's value. Virginia helped us in the store, and she was very nice, very knowledgeable, and even offered to set back the kelly green linen jacket, because she suspected I would call back and want it -- and she was right! It is winging it's way to me back in Ohio. (and you'll want that linen jacket in every color!) Go to Palm Palms!
