I found out this store about a decade ago. it's a well kept secret even though it's a huge building…read moreon route one in Saugus right next-door to Kowloons. They even have a driveway that connects both parking lots so I usually exit Kowloons exit rather than Ocean States. After finding a parking spot, you have to check out potted plants, and seasonal goods in front of the building. If you want to purchase some, you have to bring them inside purchase. Once inside the building, it's almost like a maze. There's so many different ways you can go through this building. Suggest you plan to explore. They have something for everybody everybody. Basically they have everything you could possibly think of under one roof. Linens, garden accessories, clothing, food, house, supplies, even rugs. For me, I head right over to the food section. I have a lot of fun here. As a foodie, they have all kinds of different specialty foods mostly from around New England, but some from the world. I enjoy reading packages that I've never seen before some healthy some not. They have some nice healthy organic items mixed in with miscellaneous therapy, sugary salty items. I tend to buy a lot of my canned fish here. They have kippers, herring, tuna and sardines, all in good virgin olive oil water no additives. I stock up on these as they are an excellent value. A few other products that I usually purchase while I'm here I'll be organic pastas made from vegetables. Also some of the tomato sauces and marinades excellent selection available. Be prepared to stand in line as they only have a few clerks one or two open at a time even when the store is busy. Please don't complain because I believe this is what keeps the pricing low. Kudos to Ocean State for self checkouts. I applaud this. As for cleanliness, it's probably a five on a 10 star scale. When you go here, just assume you're shopping in basically a big warehouse. Employee wise the clerks and managers always seem to have a pretty good attitude here I've spoke to a few of them and they seem very nice always polite willing to help the customer. I've only had interaction with them at a cash register, but they all seem pleasant to me. A bonus make sure you sign up for that emails because they have what they call crazy deals. This is huge people. They have special items when you purchase them they give you the same or a dollar value back on a card. if you shop correctly, it's very lucrative for your pocketbook. For example, they have one small area in the back usually has about 10 or 20 items on it. If you get lucky enough and you want to purchase these items every time you spend $10 on these items they give you a gift card for $10.. These are always food items in the back they call it eat for free. Last time I was in the store I got lucky. They had three types of tuna pouches in this section. I was lucky enough that one of them. The only ingredients were tuna, spices, and virgin olive oil. Usually for an ingredient reader like me I don't get lucky on this table, but this time I did. Turned out to be a great day at Ocean State for me as they also had a few will get a soups with great ingredients on the table at the same time. I don't think it's a record however I spent $170 and I left it with an $89 gift card. Good on future purchases and the gift card is good for anything in the entire store. I would say, read the flyer and see what crazy deals are available and make your way over to the eat for free section. Maybe you'll get lucky. ENJOY‼.

I figured this location would be a good idea since the combo TJ's/HomeGoods is also next door, so off to Woburn I went. While everything in the store was organized and fairly well-stocked, none of the employees said hello, smiled, made eye contact at all. It was a quiet weekday morning and there were not too many customers in the store, and I thought it was odd to not encounter the usual cheerful employees the company has. The rug selection in Framingham is much larger, so if that is on your shopping list, head there instead.

Thrift/consignment stores are a gamble, usually worth the risk to scope out in my eyes. I came on Yelp to see if I could shop online at WearOvers and someone's one star review popped up from 2 days prior to mine now talking about her experience with staff and wanted to express my MULTIPLE (9 at least) visits here. This place is massive with a very well organized (I'd say repurposed house probably) with a front entry room that's color coordinated jewelry, walking into a large open room that to your left are racks of clothes that depends on the weather but organized by color and size The displays above these clothes are pearl jewelry/diamonds then thin walkway (2 people could pass if paying attention to surroundings with no issues) that if you turn left racks of clothes organized by color/size and shelves with purses and jewelry and shoes ALL color coordinated. I could keep going section by section but my main point is. 1: I've NEVER seen a thrift place in all the states I travel for work and explore shops have an easier way to shop/thrift. If I'm only looking for one specific item that's a certain color, I can run in look in whatever color section and run out without having to waste forever digging. But if you want to just browse they make it so easy!! 2. I CANNOT believe how well priced these items are! Some items, I've had to question because I think they are priced wrong (too low) for the quality and condition) 3. Every time I have visited, there may not be someone just standing there at the counter doing nothing but greet the incoming customer but I can see why: I've only seen one person on staff there at a time that if they aren't checking out a customer, they are organizing or re-racking items, assisting customers in the shop or walking through multiple rooms and a second story with clothes to assist shopping customers. For the love of Jesus, they are one person with so many tasks and responsibilities!! If you need attention the whole time you are shopping, please hire a personal shopper at a high end store! Not once has any staff (it's always been a different staff member when i go in) been rude or demeaning! They have been nothing but nice helpful attentive... I could go on. 4: i tried before I made this post to just reply to the one star review person's review to save me from this SUPER long review I'm leaving and couldn't so I'll say this here: it sounded to me, (I wasn't there so I can't be 100% sure) that this person was in her own little world thinking she was the only person out shopping today, got butt hurt when she sat on a stool (first time in a thrift shop to think random stools are for customers to lounge on to shop??) and was asked by staff if she needed help. Then got butt hurt AGAIN when (from her own comment having her ear bud in with whatever audio playing) in her own world of shopping and not paying attention to her surroundings in a PUBLIC SHOPPING area squatting in a walkway was asked by staff to let another patron pass, said that was rude?? But then leave a ONE star review on a shop for hurt feelings and not the actual shop quality?? So I sat here for 39 minutes making this post about a shop that I've never received money or discount or perks from to say IGNORE the lady's (who looks approximately in her 50-60"s so you wouldn't think she wouldn't have the attitude of she's the s only one that's important or exists in this world that this is her only second review on Yelp at all) review is unfair. And PLEASE, if the one star review lady ever comes back and sees my comment and would like a sit down adult discussion over coffee or martini to just discuss worldly appropriate behavior to comment or review again and I'd be happy to discuss.

I have shopped here for several years and have found some great bargains, but yesterday I had a…read morestrange encounter with one of the employees. I happened to be listening to a podcast and had one earbud in. Sometimes when I walk in, there is a person behind the counter, and I might or might not greet them depending on whether or not the person is working on a sale, just busy with something behind the counter, or I am lost in thought. When I walked in, no one was behind the counter, and I made my way to the blouses. There happened to be a stool there, so I sat down to look at the blouses and shirts. The moment I sat down, a store employee came to me, looked me directly in the face and asked if I needed help, which was unusual for this store. Major stores do this but not small stores such as this one. I paused the podcast and responded, saying "No". She went on to say that she had said "Hello" or "Hi" (don't remember which) to me several times. I find this hard to believe as the distance from the counter to the blouses is mere steps. At this point, she could clearly see the earbud in my ear. Then she left. Was I "supposed" to greet her? Am I required to greet the store worker? Later on I was almost finished shopping and had planned to buy a small scarf. I was in an area which is VERY tight. It is hard for two people to pass each other. I was squatting down looking at something on one of the lower shelves and admittedly somewhat unaware of the people around me, when the "friendly" worker spoke to me asking if I could let someone pass behind me. Again, I could be wrong, but she acted as if I was being terribly rude. By the time she finished asking me, the person had already passed. Also, the person herself could easily have tapped me on the shoulder and asked to pass. Maybe I am reading more into it than is really there, but she seemed to have a beef with me. At that point, I dropped the scarf on the counter and walked out. I will not be returning to this store anytime in the near future.

I mentioned this to a gentleman working there and he said that he had recently become the new manager. His hard work shows. I have purchased furniture, tools, hardware, appliances, and home decor, and it's really quality stuff. It can be hit or miss, but each visit is always more interesting than the last. I'm sure you've heard that 'things aren't made like they used to be' and it's true. You are going to find better quality items here. If you need to purchase something for your home, please make a quick stop here before heading to home depot, target, or home goods. It saves you money, it helps an incredible charity, and it is better for the environment .
