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.

I always look quickly through the book section and usually manage to come away with something. My only quibble is that the type of stickers they use really take some doing to come off of books, and often leave a mark. Otherwise, the deals are not as apparent as you're led to believe. A bit like the Costco model: a few big deals to bring you in, and everything else is regular-priced or higher. Don't get suckered...find your deal and get going.

I asked if I could use a restroom because I am older and disabled. They said no, go to McDonald's! I said I hope I don't have an accident on the floor. Then the "Sales Supervisor" said that would be assault! How is having an accident? I was threatened to be thrown out of the store and was harassed by employees following me around. WAY TO GO OLLIE'S, YOU HIRE THE BEST! This happened at: 3240 North Fifth St, Reading, PA 19605

They sell mattresses and furniture here but don't expect to see any fantastic outlet prices on them. The discounted priced items here are a roll of the dice when you come in. They are mostly glass wares and kitchen items and such. Good quality stuff. Just looks like left overs from the Holidays that weren't good sellers. Some of this stuff can still be found at their regular store locations.

While visiting a friend recently we drove past the Boscov's outlet and I was intrigued. She said…read moreshe'd gotten many of good bargains there so I had to check it out for myself. It's a no frills retail environment selling overstock from the Boscov's store. The inventory changes with what they have in stock and the day of our visit most of the items were household related. Everything was new and didn't appear to be "seconds or returns". I didn't see any clothing. My friend said they have good deals on appliances and had bought some in the past. I would say the prices were comparable to a Big Lots. The day we visited they had odds and ends furniture pieces reminiscent of a Rent a Center in design and quality. They were all very affordable. If you're furnishing your first apartment or looking for occasional furniture pieces on the cheap this is where you should go. I would however question their return and warranty policies as I'm not familiar with them. While it wasn't necessarily a hit for me the day we visited, if I lived in the area I would check them out from time to time.

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.
