Yes, the space is smaller and now only one floor, but the store is much nicer and newer. Like other Burlington's I've recently visited, this store now has security at the entrance that lets you in. Standard smaller Burlington selection that looks a lot like a Ross Dress For Less or Marshalls. Clothing stock is geared towards women, similar to most other stores like this. This store was well stocked and reasonably well organized, and I was impressed that the electronics selection had some name brand phone cables and chargers. Checkout was easy and fast. Overall decent stop and a vast improvement compared to when it was located across the street.

I liked the pricing and quality for their home decor wall decorations. They also had some cute items for tableware items like bowls and cups. They have a lot of the standard department sections like home goods, bed wear, small kitchen devices, children's toys, pet's items, bathroom stuff, food, etc. There are some noticeable savings available for some items but most things in the store are pretty standard pricing - perhaps a bit higher than average. It seems like a good idea to visit their website or scope out their weekly circular savings for best savings. The store seemed pretty understaffed. There was one person at the checkout registers and she was very friendly but obviously swamped with people ready to pay for items. They should give her a raise and also hire an extra person for the registers.

I almost bought a couch there and decided to check Unclaimed Freight just in case and found a leather sectional that was just a few bucks (literally $7) more. Glad we checked! You'll want to check the expiration on some of the food items since they, though not expired, can tend to be a shorter shelf life than at a grocery store.

You can still see the fountain where the famous YouTube video was taken. Not a lot of super high end stores, but it matches the area nicely. All it needs is an attached cinema to complete the feel of the pet rock era. I hope this place will endure. Unlike the Plymouth Meeting Mall, the exterior stores aren't doing as well as the interior. The Firehouse Subs place just closed. Security is present but not intrusive

With new ownership looking to close and redevelop most of the mall, Berkshire Mall's time is sadly…read moregetting short. What is sad, is while Berkshire Mall is no longer in it's prime, a large portion of the mall's interior remains filled with a mix of national and local tenants. It even has one fully functional fountain, in front of the Boscov's, with the fountain in front of the Sears not being operable for several years. Foot traffic on the weekends is excellent, with a portion of the community still supporting Berkshire. Unfortunately, this malls downturn largely started with the closing of Bon-Ton and Sears within a year of each other. The sale to Namdar Realty Group bought Berkshire into less reputable ownership, with their usual deferred maintenance leading to the mall almost being condemned in 2024 and a large portion of the parking lot being blocked off due to sinkhole issues. The food court upstairs is down to only three stands. What makes Berkshire worth stopping into despite all these problems? While the interior is dated, it is nice and kept clean. There is a fully functional mall retro arcade, Challenge Arcade. Berkshire Mall has one of the few full size FYE's left in the state. Various small businesses add charm and other shopping options. It's a shame that Abrams Realty Group, the malls future new owners, want to close Berkshire. Unlike Exton Square Mall, which they are also redeveloping, Berkshire Mall is not dead and it's far from it. Shame how it's going to end.

It's definitely not busy or crowded but I was surprised at how well kept their sales floor was. I was easily able to find what I was looking for and their prices are better for grocery and such than my local Target which was refreshing. There isn't a whole lot of staff working but the cashier I checked out with was very friendly . All in all, a very pleasant experience!

In short, I was treated like trash by the clerk at the front entrance as I entered…read more This happened Saturday, 8/1/20, at approximately 7:30pm, in response to their new mask policy. I can't wear a mask due to very real medical reasons (blood pressure related), under my doctor's advise. Target had apparently rolled out a new (and already outdated compared to their competitors) policy on masks, but the clerk was either entirely ignorant to the details of the policy she was attempting to enforce, or she just wanted to rant at me in a sort of deranged power trip. She told me I couldn't come into the store due to store policy and state policy. My only option was curbside pickup. Period. Target's actual policy is: "Starting August 1, we're requiring guests to wear masks or face coverings in all of our stores, except for those with UNDERLYING MEDICAL CONDITIONS and young children." State policy is essentially the same. The clerk would not show me their policy in print, so I had to look it up on their website after I left. I suppose if I had a heart attack in the middle of the cereal aisle, it would have been a preferred look for the store, than to show a little consideration for someone who has no problem with respectfully social distancing? I've been going to the Exeter store since it opened, but I will do my shopping at other grocery stores or farmers markets in the future, and all non essentials will be bought on Amazon.

This is supposedly the mecca for all Targets. I was told as a bona fide Target truther that I…read morecouldn't preach the holy gospel on them until I've visited this location. Not even sure where to start. As for comparing it to all Targets I've been too (which is more than I'd like to admit) this one was painfully average. Legit just another Target. The layout was similar to the mid tier ones I've been too. Not fancy enough to go toe to toe with the high end ones. But well stocked and clean enough to keep pace. Holding this store back are the absolute heathens that lurk the store and patrol the parking lots. Groups upon groups of children (high schoolers) who are bored and have nothing better to do but cause chaos at Target late at night made for an interesting shopping experience. Respect management to get them escorted off property. But they left a trail of mess in their wake. Disturbed customers and just kind of weird behavior overall. Major points to the management. And I will not lie this place takes laps around the local Walmart of the area. I'm kind of shocked that place is still in business.

I purchased two phone on sale at Walmart.com Black Friday Took both phones out of the box, tested and charged to 100% I disposed of both boxes. Went to activate the phones a couple days later and was told that Walmart did not scan the phones correctly and the IEMI was not registered. Took both phones back to Walmart and they would not take as a return because I had disposed of the boxes. Said without the boxes they could not accept or activate. I have everything in the box including papers..... just no boxes First, these guys are the ones that messed up. Not me. There is a assumption in shopping that they scan these two phones correctly. How do they move them out of inventory without proper scanning. They should accept these as returns.

I discovered the Opp shop while doing a thrift google search of the area. Little did I know it was…read moreliterally right down the street from a Goodwill I've been to twice. How convenient! It's located in a deserted, large shopping complex with the anchor store vacant. The lot is expansive and this store is on the end next to the large vacant property. For that reason I would be leery of going at night alone. Otherwise approaching I could see it was a store with a substantial amount of real estate. Furniture pieces were visible thru the window. I couldn't wait to get inside to explore. Is it the cleanest, most organized store? You can literally see dust balls float across the floor. No...but its full of vintage items as well as pickers. How do I know? You can witness them on the sales floor doing pricing research on their phones while holding tight to an item. I would guess that the majority of the customers were resellers. For that reason, if you see something you like, whether you think it's valuable or just valuable to you grab it. Take a look at that complete set of vintage mushroom canisters I came across. I know they are a highly desirable collectable. I left them for someone else to discover and enjoy. What I would consider highlights for this store is the furniture pieces. Large, small, new and old, like antique old (see pic). The large solid wood wall unit was complete with shelving and lighting and priced at only $299. I'm sure it was a few thousand new. If you dabble in decorative painting and furniture upcycling like I do you'll want to add this store to your thrifting stops. Housewares and decorative items were plenty and arranged better than some departments. I scored some great pieces in this dept that have been on my "thrift wish list "for some time. Toys, crafts, and misc were a huge mess, with piles on the shelves and on the floor without any consideration to order. Prices are very affordable, only a step above yard sale for most items. Linens were stocked well and included a lot of vintage and handmade pieces like crocheted afghans. Clothing was a miss for me. Although I did see they have dressing room the department was so full and clustered together I didn't feel like routing. Shoes I felt were priced high, one price depending on item (see pic) without consideration to brand or condition. DVD's were labeled as half off, but I didn't see a price for comparison. The book department was large and popular. On the day I was there they were constantly adding new items, including furniture pieces, and the pickers were standing ready. This store is part of the Opportunity House, a non profit that offers social services to disadvantaged families, a mission I truly support. The employees were all nice, especially the young man at the register, who provided me with a loyalty card - get it hole punched for each purchase. So while this might not be the best looking or best kept store, it's a great place to hunt for vintage and current items on the cheap.
