    I'll preface this by saying that I hate leaving low reviews on a small business.. With that said,…read morethere's no room for poor customer service. Long story short, I was looking for a pair of Carolina Boots, for which they are a dealer for. They didn't have the particular ones I was looking for in stock, so I was offered the ability to try on other boots of that brand in hopes to find my size. Which we did (not the same model). I was then told that they could order them, I said great! Boots come in, I take them home and put them on. Close fit, but not quite right. Especially for something like boots that you're going to be wearing all the time. So a few days later I swing back by the store and ask if I could exchange them for a different size (still new in the box, tags, wrappers, didn't even lace them all the way). I was told albeit politely, that they cannot exchange or return them because they were "special order".... I'm sorry.. what?? Special order? You sell Carolina Boots..? Mind you, NONE OF THAT was mentioned prior to me agreeing to order them, or even when I took delivery of them. Politely told to kick rocks (pun intended). Any other shoe outlet would gladly either exchange and quite honestly except a return. Any local name brand store front, and definitely an online shop. This is one of the reasons why local stores go out of business sadly. Poor service. Because now I have a really really nice pair of boots that don't fit. In closing: if your policy is NO EXCHANGE/RETURN on "ordered" shoes, you need to disclose that before hand. ZERO excuses. Lazy and quite honestly it's unprofessional.

    High quality products and small hometown service and care. Warren and Staff are always super…read morehelpful and caring. Ordering custom embordered clothing is a breeze and always correct. Best place for work boots, Warren always makes sure there are American made models available ,which is big to me. A+++++++

    Ok, this is Walmart, so why right a review? This is a place…read morethat's trying to be everything and succeeding at some, and totally failing at other parts. As a department store, it would get 4 stars. Good selections, prices are good, shelves are stocked, and selection is above average The pharmacy would get 5 stars. Very friendly and helpful. Prices a really great. We have to get medication for our dogs, and compared to the other pharmacies in town, we are getting the meds at almost 40% lower here, than at the chain pharmacies. Supermarket section: this would get 0 stars if I could. The produce section is a joke. I've seen better looking veggies at a food bank. Rusty looking lettuces and bagged salads, squash with pucks, dents, and soft spots. Tomatoes that are really soft. Many times shelves are not filled, to the point that you could reduce space by 30%. We did try the meat once, and that is the last time we will buy it. We don't buy milk there anymore because it seems to go bad 2 to 4 days before the expiration date. I'd like to take the temperature of the dairy case because it doesn't feel like it is set to the proper temperature, thus causing it to spoil early. Overall the prices are the same, if not more for certain items, than the other 2 supermarkets in town. As a department store, the place is good, great as a pharmacy, but a total disaster as a supermarket.

    This Walmart is my go-to store, and I shop here several times a week. I am a regular, paying…read morecustomer, and I have never been given a reason to believe that my behavior should be considered suspicious. However, during my last three or four visits, I have felt as though I was being followed or closely monitored by asset protection or individuals I now understand may have been secret shoppers. I was not aware that the person involved in the most recent incident was an employee, and the situation became so uncomfortable and unsettling that I genuinely believed something more serious or sinister might be happening. I was shopping alone with my baby, and because I did not know the person was an employee, I felt unsafe and began thinking about whether I would need to ask someone to walk me to my car or contact someone outside the store for help. Being constantly stared at and followed made me feel as though my baby and I were potentially in an unsafe situation, and I felt like we needed to get out of the store as quickly as possible. It was only afterward, after discussing the incident with my husband and putting the pieces together, that I realized the person was likely a secret shopper or part of asset protection. I understand that Walmart may have legitimate reasons and good intentions behind having asset protection and secret shoppers, and I fully understand the importance of preventing theft. However, there is a significant difference between discreetly monitoring a customer and making a regular, innocent customer feel followed, watched, or targeted. I have personally seen genuinely suspicious behavior while shopping, which makes it especially frustrating and confusing to feel that I am the person being treated suspiciously when I am simply there to shop and make purchases. This experience has been extremely disappointing and has made me uncomfortable returning to a store that I have considered my go-to Walmart. Customers should be able to shop without feeling intimidated or unsafe, especially when they have done nothing to warrant that kind of attention. I hope Walmart will take this concern seriously and consider how asset protection practices are being carried out, particularly when dealing with regular customers who have given no indication of suspicious behavior. I should not have to worry about being followed or feeling unsafe simply because I am shopping with my baby, and I do not want another customer to experience the same level of fear and discomfort that I experienced.

    Easily one of my favorite places in Western Mass. for "sports-stuff"…read more I've been shopping here since like 1989-90. I make my way there at the start of every baseball season to pick up a crisp Yankee fitted hat. (They were one of the first...and only spots to offer authentic MLB on-field hats) Great selection of sneakers: Jordans. Nike. Adidas. New Balance. Converse. Reebok. Lots of classic styles too. A MAJOR selection of great kids sneakers too. I've also purchased most of my Timberland boots here. Great selection of styles and colors. They also are the go to spot for fan gear. Sox, Patriots, Celtics, Bruins, etc. Great selection of jerseys and other authentic gear. I got my "Belichick hoodie" here. Oh and I forgot to mention the most important thing! The service! Great family run business. Support the local independent stores folks!

    This is definitely the place to go for all sporting goods. I have been going here ever since I was…read morea high school athlete and now I go since I coach. Over the years, they have never disappointed me and I absolutely love going here for all of sporting needs when possible. They have cleats, custom team wear, and equipment for any sport you can imagine. If they don't have it then they can order it for you. The price is MUCH cheaper than large chains. I prefer them over larger retail sporting good stores because of the personal attention and care that the owner put into. In addition, it is always nice to support small businesses whenever possible. There's a small parking space on the side near Walgreens. Go give them a try, they won't disappoint you.

REI has great outdoor brands and a decent selection. Prices range and things can be on the higher-end but it's no more expensive than the manufactures sites. I also appreciate that as a member I get perks like cash back, extended returns, etc.

    Still five stars. We came in looking for a number of things. Kind of a scouting mission. REI has…read moreplenty to offer for hiking, camping, biking, kayaking, and more. We are looking for, among other things, a smaller tent (ours is huge) that we can easily lug around with us and REI has a large selection. We signed up for their membership several years ago. Just tell them your phone number when making a purchase and you get credit for the purchase. We picked up a UV protective t-shirt as a gift for someone. It was reasonably priced imho, very soft and moisture wicking. Brilliant. I should probably get myself one too. BTW, the company no longer offers bags. None. So bring a reusable bag if you plan to shop here. It's just another way to reduce waste and be a good steward. Some of the prices can be high, but not everything. They sell Patagonia which is an expensive brand, as well as other, more moderately priced items. You just have to know what you want and what you are willing to pay. If you check out the bulletin board upstairs, they offer guided excursions that look really fun. I check out their selection of hiking poles as I am looking to buy some. Everything from really reasonable basic models to foldable, light weight pricey models. So you have options. They have pet items. Personal care items. Clothes and shoes are upstairs. So many types of water bottles. Camping items for both the thru-hiker and the car-camper. Check them out. They are a good resource and the staff are friendly and happy to assist.
