I enjoy poking around the LLBean Outlet. They've moved to a new pricing model in the last few years…read moreand I don't think the deals are as good as we used to get, but it's still cheaper. The prices on the items are normal retail prices and each rack will have the percentage off above it. Most of the clothes are 30% off the retail prices. If you look, you may find a rack with 50% off or more and they have specials on items they are looking to move. We have the LLBean MasterCard so we have points and can use the points at the store. That makes for some great shopping. Staff is always helpful.

We visited a NY outlet back in early March but were stumped to noticed there weren't any home stores and left us with the urge for 'home' outlet shopping. So on our drive south to Portland, ME from Bar Harbor, hubs and I decided to see this L.L. on Rt 1 in Ellsworth. I honestly think the men's clothing (more so than the women's) are a bit on the cool side so picked up a few casual tops for my husband since he's still working from home and some lightweight cargo pants. While I'm a proud owner of their heavy-duty canvas totes for the last umpteen years (I own 2 large ones), the clothes not so much. L.L. women's clothes aren't my style- and not to say anything wrong about it, but the clothes are more for a certain crowd. There are those duck boots and small wooden furniture on the floor also for sale. But I finally got my hands on a white-grey cotton sheet set and a down grey comforter that I've been wanting. As the cashier scans your items, you'll notice their original, jacked-up prices- so don't let it spook you the way it did to me as discounts are applied at the end. Once we paid, I didn't feel this was my doom-and-gloom outlet visit. Service was nice and respectful by the way.

I am a big sports card collector and this is my favorite sports card shop that I have ever been to. It is clear that the goal of the store isn't to make money but to have the customer be happy and try to get a special souvenir at a great price. They could be making so much more money off of sport cards and they know that but they keep it reasonable to keep you happy. Also, the two people who work their are great, kind people who I have had great conversations with every time I go to the store over the summer. This place is what makes Bar Harbor such a special place to me.
