Have you seen the flags of freedom? What color are they now?…read more(Neil Young) I feel like letting my freak flag fly (Crosby, Stills, & Nash) How can I possibly explain the stellar customer service I received at Flagman? I'll try. I belong to a charitable organization and we have a 15-year old banner to display at our events. I wanted to update it by adding the year "2020" to reflect next year's upcoming national convention in Hartford. I brought the banner to Flagman, met with Jordan Ahlstrom, and explained what I wanted to do. He said it would be pretty easy to match the font and color for the new date with the font and color of the original banner using a heat transfer process. He just wanted to check with his textile person to be sure. A few days later, he wrote to me and said although they were 100% the new panel would "stick", he couldn't 100% guarantee that the heating process would not damage the original banner due to it's age. Jordan wanted to be clear and honest about his concerns for the remote possibility of discoloration or damage to the banner. I really appreciated that. I met him a second time and talked about the issues, and eventually we agreed that the risk of damaging the banner was something neither of us wanted to accept. So now we switched to Plan B - making an applique "patch" for the new date that would be sewn onto the original (one number at a time) instead of being heat applied. I picked up the banner today, and it came out great and only cost $50. I also picked up a grave marker and a graveside flag to replace the ones that seem to have been stolen from a family member's resting place. Flagman is family owned & operated since 1947. They can do just about anything you need if it involves flags & flagpoles. Want more good news? They offer a 10% discount with your Yelp check-in. This was a stellar 5 star consumer experience. Thanks Jordan and thanks Flagman!

The manager was really friendly. We talked to him for a bit. The store itself is way larger than the ones in RI and MA so there were several game tables going and a good crowd of people.

So close to the holiday... let's just say that's not going to work! (It's the 23rd of December!) I called this store and they confirmed they had Catan and various expansion packs in stock. The price is exactly what I was expecting to pay and then they had a 10% holiday discount. It's a Saturday and most stores are NOT answering their phones but this store answered on the 1st or 2nd ring!! They set aside two different games for me and confirmed they were open until 10pm! I swung by and the nicest person helped me to check out, signed me up for the rewards program, and explained their business model. You can rent and play games, purchase them, or bring your own! I hope to come back soon! Thank you! (Note they are open until 10pm and they had many tables inside for board gaming!!)

Now I know that shouldn't have been a surprise because I learned Ken's has devoted a whole room exclusively to wrestling memorabilia, and they were super interested in my Hulk Hogans, Andre the Giants, and Macho Man Savages. They bought every single card and I walked out with a price I could live with. If you have any wrestling fans in the family, they will do a pile-driver off the top rope and have a blast looking around Ken's Rasslin' Room. .
