This includes sale items too! Double wow!! As if all this weren't enough, for every $50.00 spent, Super Rewards Customers earn 10 "Super Bucks," and can redeem them next month, from 9/6/2022-9/30/2022. I just wanted to share the excellent shopping experience I had this past Sunday, August 7, from everyone at the Super Shoes located at 1 Washington Street in the Waterville store, starting with Gloria. Gloria was the main reason I drove to physically shop in the first place. She Wowed me on the phone, with "old-school customer service" to the max! Gloria was the one who informed me of both the current and future sales, including all of the DEETS written above! She helped me to both spend and save so much money, to maximize my purchase dollars, my trip there, and my rewards account!! She treated me like she knew me, she cared about what was important to me, and was "all-in" invested in the company and the customer. The moment I walked through the main store entrance, I was warmly greeted by Sadie, who was working the register. Her friendly and sincere acknowledgement stood out as more excellent customer service. And when I was upstairs trying on work shoes she asked if I needed any help. Even though I didn't, she still looked over from time to time, with positive eye contact and a sincere smile. I was thinking about since the pandemic, how significant it's been for me to go anywhere. Trips to physical brick-and-mortar stores have decreased significantly. When I do go out as a consumer, I feel a store has that many more chances to both "Wow" their customers and retain them. Customer recognition is very important. I too work in customer service, and we're strictly trained that we're supposed to exceed customer expectations. Gloria and Sadie exemplified that 100%. Glen was downstairs "holding the fort down" in the Men's department, also conscientiously and respectfully asking customers if he could help them find what they were looking for. As I struggled to refold the unwanted pants correctly-to look nice and neat like all the others-he "showed and told" me how to tri-folded the Carhartt Men's workpants! Did you ever wonder how they get that fold looking so nice and neat, with the sizes clearly facing out towards the customers line of vision?! Unless you can figure it out, Glen knows and will probably show you too if you ask!! Other employees have been very helpful, polite, positive and respectful along the way, even if just calling for help to write this review, Emma and Melissa. Also, Lila was friendly and happy to step in and bag all my items purchased on Sunday. And because of Glorias excellent old-school customer service, I saved nearly $100.00 +/- on two pairs of Klogs slip resistant work shoes; two Carhartt Heavyweight Short-Sleeved Pocket T-Shirts, and two pairs of Carhartt Double-Front Workpants: black & mustard brown color!! a.k.a. "Hamilton Brown," the founder, with more than 130 years of a true and tried Carhartt legacy! If you have any questions, the Waterville store number is 207-873-5858. If you want too, you can tell them that a very thankful and grateful customer Toni said hello, and thanks again!!

My bestie had never been to a Marden's before. This location is bigger than other locations that I've been in but I feel what makes it bigger is their furniture section which is HUGE. They also have a pretty big crafting material section too. I did see some brand name shoes in the shoe section. I picked up this super cute black with white striped backpack that I used as my carry on bag for my plane ride back home which after using it I was in more awh with it. Great price too! I saw a bunny in a shopping cart that was friendly & two doggies with their owner....must of been bring your pet to Marden's day?? lol Bathrooms were clean as they have some out front & in the back. I was surprised that they really didn't have a big beauty product section for shampoo's, conditioner's, body wash, etc. I did find a cat treat toy that I had found at a different location when I was home visiting in April that I told my bestie she had to buy for her cats & I got one for my co-worker. My bestie found a pair of VANS that she purchased for a great price & loves. I wasn't super impressed with this location. It also seemed that someone may have been caught stealing because when we were leaving their were undercover security & police causing a commotion. Marden's are ALWAYS WORTH stopping in!!

Growing up hearing the commercial jingle, "I should have bought it...... when I saw it..... at…read moreMardens" - It's a Maine thing and that jingle holds true. If you see a deal that you really want....don't hesitate, buy it, because it WILL be gone within a week or so. This location is VERY easy to find. A repurposed Kmart building, I believe... It's right off the highway, in fact you can see it from the off ramp to the right. There is plenty of parking even when it's crowded. I have never been to this location around the holiday, but I have driven by, and it is always packed! This locally owned retail chain, sells overstock, liquidation and salvage items. We have seen things from Amazon as well. It's usually so random, although they have seasonally appropriate items as well. When we have the time and energy, we like going through the clearance aisles...yes, they have clearance aisles in a discount store. The clearance aisles are only organized by the percentage off and so it's chaotic. Bring patience and a sharp eye for deals. We have gotten electronic peripherals and accessories. We also bought some great yard deals. While we didn't buy them, they had Robotic Lawn mowers with batteries for sale. This store is quite large and have things like furniture, appliances....so much stuff. If you are a patient bargain hunter, that doesn't mind being around people, you may like this store. Worth at least one visit.

When the package came it really made me wonder what their standards were. Only one item looked decent and that was the goatsbeard. The package was the plants tucked into brown paper envelopes, stacked on top of each other. The two Solomon Seals did not look good at all, two others were pretty much dead. Two trilliums looked half dead and squished. I contacted them and they said to give them a bit and plant them right away. I want to add that shipping had not taken long after they mailed it, a couple of days. I had potted them literally an hour after getting them. I'm not a novice, I'm a Master Gardener and Native Plant Advisor. I gave them more than two weeks. The two nearly dead finished dying. One of the Solomon's was still looking terrible. The other had put up a new shoot. The Trilliums continued to die down but I'm hoping next year they come back. I contacted them and after jumping through hoops I got some of my money back. I will never buy from them again. The biggest annoyance was their excuse that plants don't ship well. I told them that maybe they should not offer to ship plants. I've ordered plants from Holland and England that for the most part didn't have any issues. I'm sure a couple of states away should be doable.

It's a a magical place. Staff is so helpful. Little bit pricey but worth anything you spend there…read more They have everything we want or need to grow a beautiful garden in Maine.

Make sure to inquire about the letter press she owns. She showed me pictures of the Gutenberg letter press she uses to make the beautiful cards and prints. Her skill is unmatched and eye for detail is unmatched OH... she bakes all kinds of yummy treats. My personal favorite is the ginger cookies..and the bread. She makes the best tasting organic items you'll ever find. If you are having a party she also says she does some catering events. She also has rail bikes for rent! You'll get to pedal bikes that run along the rail road tracks and it's a blast..and a work out. Kip is a great guy who works there and loves to chat and will help ya with the bikes.

RON IS A HOOT!! I shopped here last year and bought some…read moresilver spoons since some of my spoons went missing. Fast forward to this year, my daughter is getting married and the Wedding Shower was going to be a Tea Party. We wanted to make up some Thank You Gifts with a Tea Cup and a silver spoon so I went back to Ron Reed. He was annoyed right off the bat because I didn't see his sign to turn the light on for myself. OK, sorry Buddy! So, he had to reprimand me for that. All I wanted was spoons so I went to the silverware box and pulled some out. I needed about 25-30 of them but since he charges fifty cents a piece which is actually quite pricey for old tarnished spoons. I decided to just get 40 of them...20 bucks! Sure, that was fine, he didn't have to give me change, no problem. I'll get 'em and go...NO. Not going to happen. Nothing can be easy! I walked up to Ron and he asked me if I can count. HUH? Yeah, I can count (at least up to 40). Then he tells me he's "been taken before". TAKEN? WHAT? I told him I wasn't there to TAKE HIM! I'm halfway mad at myself because he counted them and said I had 41. Darn it!! I can count and I thought I had 40 but he counted 41. I should have counted them again for myself but I wasn't there to TAKE HIM, so I reached in my purse and pulled out 50 cents. Why I'm mad at myself is that I didn't need that many spoons to begin with. I should have put some back instead of buying more than I needed. I'll just say; He's not a people person! I'm giving him 2 stars because his place is better organized than most "Antique" shops. It's small so it doesn't take too long to go through his place. Pretty much has the same stuff as most antique stores. The first time I was there he was complaining about his ex-wife to my husband. He just needs to learn how to talk to people. RUDE!
