    So, I've been visiting these stores for, like....30 something years now. Which....actually means…read morethe last time I went to these outlet stores was before I was old enough to vote or pay income tax. Which means, from a child's perspective, it's just a bunch of stores. Now, as a bill paying adult, I can appreciate things like convenience, simplicity, fair prices and most important....expedited check out. I had decided early on not to review every single individual store in this place for two reasons. 1.) I did not GO to every store (I mean, why would I?) 2.) I don't feel like reviewing 40+ different stores. Now, MAYBE I'll get around to discussing one or two stores that stick out to me as time goes on. For now, all you need to know is that certain stores require you to wear a mask, but most do not. I think it depends on the size of the store and how many people are allowed inside. Restrooms are kinda scarce and spaced out in this outdoor mall. So, be prepared for that. There's also a fair number of places here that accept contactless payment. Good to see they've updated their POS systems. Look, there's nothing really significant about this series of outlet stores, aside from the fact that they're located in a pretty touristy spot. In fact, this entire strip has other outlet store complexes and food places with great potential. My recommendation would be to park somewhere in the center of the mall so that it evens out your walking distance. Not a whole lot else to say, really. Decent stores and a great place to get in some light cardio, I guess. Kittery Premium Outlet stores are worth 4 back to school shopping trips out of 5.

    I've always appreciated the idea of the Kittery Outlets, but the actual shopping experience has…read morebecome increasingly inconvenient. One of the biggest frustrations is the layout: instead of being able to stroll from store to store, you constantly have to get in and out of your car and drive from one shopping center to another. It really takes away from the enjoyment of outlet shopping and makes the whole day feel more like running errands than browsing. Another downside is the taxes. Whatever savings you think you're getting from outlet pricing quickly shrink once you see what you're paying in tax. It feels like a big chunk of the "discount" disappears at the register, which defeats the purpose of going to an outlet in the first place. Lastly, the number of vacant stores is hard to ignore. Whole sections look empty, and it gives the area a run-down feel. It also limits your options and makes the trip less worthwhile if the stores you came for simply aren't there anymore. Overall, the Kittery Outlets had potential, but the inconvenient layout, high taxes, and increasing number of vacant storefronts makes the experience far less appealing than it used to be.

    Coming from Boston, I think this Premium outlet is great since it's tax free all year long. We got…read morefound really good deals at Coach, MK, Bloomingdale's, and Coach. They also have other popular stores including Saks Fifth Avenue, Nike, and Boss. The outlets are the place to go for the best deals. For the negatives, the food court is pretty sad, it only has a coffee shop, a pizza restaurant, and chicken restaurant, and a small Indian restaurant. We got food from the chicken restaurant and it was disappointing. Also, it was a hot day and there's not too much shade besides going into the stores or the food court. Overall, I like the Wrentham Village Premium Outlets more in terms of their layout and larger store selection, but would recommend going here if you plan on making large purchases to save on the tax.

    This was a great outlet shopping experience! It was very quiet on a weekday afternoon, and it was a…read moregreat experience strolling through the various shops. There is a large selection of big names here including Nike, Calvin Klein,and Le Creuset to name a few. We found some great bargains at Nike and also found some great kitchen items at Le Creuset. There is a Lindt store here too for all your chocolate needs! We definitely paid that a visit also. I was also surprised at how friendly and knowledgeable all the staff were at the various stores. The staff at Le Creuset really seemed to understand their products very well. We did not eat here, but there is a small food court. Restrooms were quite clean and well-kept. Overall this was a great shopping experience!

OMG I've…read morebeen jonesing for Fisher dry roasted sea salt peanuts ever since I left San Antonio and couldn't find them anymore. They were here in my backyard the whole time LOL. Well, I assume they have. At any rate, check out Reny's, they usually have good prices on many things. They also carry a wide assortment of Raye's Mustard (supposedly the only stone ground mill in America) and gonna try some double "burgermot" (how I like to jokingly pronounce it) tea. For a small place, they have a wide range of items too. Give them a look see.

We like our local store, so we thought it would be a fun winter project for us as we don't snowmobile or ski! We combined this stop at this Saco branch in the Portland area with a trip to Costco and, conveniently, the Portland Reny's as well. This Saco branch reflects the look and feel of the Reny's "brand" and parking was more convenient than the Portland store. We like how Reny's has a great variety of items without being quite as large and sprawling as, say, a Walmart super center. It also stresses having Maine mad or themed products where they can. I have noticed that, with admittedly flimsy evidence except at our local one, employees at Reny's seem to like working there and helping customers. The parking situation is good here, and it had the same comfortable feel and friendly employees as the other branches we have visited, so that is good. On to the next branch, passport in hand!

They also have a great selection of toys with brand names such as Melissa & Doug as well as other names. The best part is everything is so much less expensive than the mall or a regular store selling the same thing. I took a young woman in there for the first time the other day. She tends to like the finer things in life but as just a working class girl she can't really afford a Michael Kors bag. She loved the store. She found an MK bag in there that she wanted and is saving to get. It was probably at least half what you would pay in the mall. They also have a nice line of jewelry and I always recommend them to people looking to purchase luggage as they have nice luggage and great prices on these things also.

The way she was acting was horrifying and definitely NOT NORMAL! She had an evil look in her face! I have never seen anything like it! She didn't know what she was doing and she got frustrated and acted like a lunatic towards me! And that's when I called for a manager. For this reason, I am cancelling my credit card and will avoid going to this place in the future. What a horrible experience that was!!! I really want to rate this place a big fat ZERO!!!
