I'll tell you why in a minute…read more I drove down from Boston to meet my friend Sherry and her husband for an early dinner before an author event that Sherry's bookstore was hosting at the United Theater. I had 90 minutes to kill before the event so I went exploring whatever that section of town is called.. Westerly Center maybe? Lots of interesting shops, friendly looking bars, restaurants, and a commuter rail train station that has the most amazing art gallery, of all things. But this is a review of Christina LTD, a great little clothing and novelty items store down the block from the United. I went in to poke around and saw clothing which looked interesting, but I wasn't in the mood to look at clothes. What really caught my eye were some novelty items that will be on my shopping list for Christmas. I was laughing out loud browsing these items. First to get my attention was a table on which were spread little boxes of gum with the most hilarious statements on the cover. I took pictures but not sure they would be allowed in Yelp so I'll give them to you here: "How About a Big Pack of Shut the Hell Up!", "I gave a s--- earlier. You missed it." and "Cut the S---, Anxiety!" I was already cracking up as I picked those up to purchase; there were another 8 or 10 equally as funny but my house has enough stuff lying around. I moved on to another section and there was shelving with a ton of socks with similarly funny sayings on them. I was still giggling, and planning who will get these gifts. There was a ton of other stuff there to please.. candles, oils, cards, I don't even remember all that was there. I just know that I will be back before Christmas to tackle my list of gifts. Probably back many times. What a gem! You are very lucky if you live close to this store.

A treasure hunt with charm and value…read more Penny Wise Consignment is one of those places where you walk in "just to browse" and somehow leave with a bag full of finds you didn't know you needed. The shop is well‑organized without losing that fun, treasure‑hunt energy that makes consignment shopping so addictive. Clothing, accessories, home goods--everything feels curated enough to be worth your time, but still priced like a true local gem. What really sets Penny Wise apart is the staff. They're friendly, patient, and genuinely invested in helping you find something that fits your style or your home. There's a sense of loyalty and community here--you can tell regulars come back not just for the deals, but for the people. Inventory rotates often, which keeps things fresh, though it also means you've got to be quick if you spot something great. A little more space or updated displays would push this place into five‑star territory, but honestly, the charm is part of the appeal. If you love good value, unique pieces, and a shop that feels like it's run with heart, Penny Wise is absolutely worth the stop. Enjoy

They have a wide selection of vineyard vines, north face, and other fun stuff. The store is not super huge but is usually pretty packed. It's saved me money on things I'm going to buy anyway since some of the items are on sale that never go on sale online (north face stuff!). Always a friendly staff, can't wait to go back!

So the staff is nice and their selection is pretty good for the location. However prices are…read morestupidly high compared to other stores. The big issue is their return policy. No where in their store did I see a sign for store credit only. I'm not sure if it's because of where they are located but apparently it's a company policy. I'm not a local so I don't want store credit. It's impossible to buy someone someone else a gift because what if they don't like it? What if they don't like anything in the store? It's a very frustrating policy especially since everything they sell accepts returns.. (vineyard vines, jack Rogers, sail to sable etc) so unfortunately if I see something in the store I like I will purchase directly from the company instead of buying local. Sorry Island Outfitters you just lost a loyal customer of 10 years...

My husband was ever so thoughtful and purchased a scarf for me as a little gift while he was on a…read morefishing trip to Block Island and it was a very pretty green scarf, but as I'm admiring it I noticed a hole in the seam (it's an infinity scarf) and a very large tear about a third of the way into the seam. How in the world did the person ringing him up not notice this..and the many pulled strings hanging off it. My guess is they did and choose to ignore it being he was a summer tourist. I decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and gave the place a call. A very heavily accented young lady told me that her boss's would call me back in about 30 minutes. After 5 hours, I called again, and this time I did get a call back with the promise of a replacement or refund next day when the owner was in the shop. So my review is based on their customer service and the quality of an item they carry. 4 for customer service 1 for quality of item

Above & Beyond review Christinas Ltd clothing shop Westerly:…read moreI am local about 20 mins away. My husband & I decided to spend a rare night out. We went to the United in Westerly for an Improv show. Oooph... I was freezing we all know the effect of a nice summer evening & then you hit the A/C. Hence, I had 2-3 minutes to find a "sweater" before the show started. I ran out of the theatre & into one of the ONLY shops open; Christinas on the corner. IMO, I somewhat rudely ran into the store & said I need something reasonably affordable to keep me warm at the show. The woman who waited on me (I now, know as Kim) dropped everything she was doing, as I was running around like a loon; & I finally found a "short" zip up jacket myself for $79.00 & thought, "this will do". BUT, Kim came around the corner & said WAIT, come here & try this on; Kim put me in a beautiful long crocheted white LONG "duster" for $69. WOW in front of the mirror, along with my already white dress I looked like a Princess rather than a "tennis player" LOL With that service I assume she was the owner, but no, my husband & I visited again on 7/14/23 and AGAIN 1 of the only shops open in Westerly @ 8pm on a beautiful summer FRIDAY evening they were OPEN, even though tons of people were "window shopping" elsewhere, Christinas had a fair share of at least 8 woman in their shop "buying". I bought more items bath oil & a vase. HEADS UP rest of Westerly businesses, when tons of people are still walking around weekend evenings & a but lightheaded from beer & wine, selling them your wares is a VERY GOOD IDEA...just sayin'
