Not just crowded, the place is a mess all but waiting for the tsunami that's about to hit after the earthquake. Manalapan, NJ is hardly poor but you'd never know it the way these affluent hausfraus are scavenging through the debris. I think I'll hide behind the artificial palm until the deeply discounted riot subsides. I just feel sorry for Rachael Ray. Three stars.

This is my favorite home accessory store in the Monmouth County area. The store is beautiful…read more Over the last few years, I have purchased many items for my home and special gifts for others. Karyl Asch, the owner has given me one-on-one service by suggesting just the right item to fit my home. Many times, she has let me take it home and see if I like it before paying for it. She also has come to my home and offered home decorating service for free. The quality of each piece is evident and her price point is very fair. I have purchased throws, frames, trays, candles, furniture, pillows, coasters, vases and furniture. She also wraps my presents as an added benefit. When Karyl isn't available, Arlene and Michele are super salespeople as well. I would go out of my way to find her store in the Alexander Plaza on Route 9 South in Manalapan. Karyl and her lovely store have made me very happy!

It's not that they start slow with a few ornaments in July, the store doesn't do Halloween and is not really a back-to-school destination (unless your ascending undergrad is really into decoupage) so... it's hop on the Good Lord's 2,023 Birthday Celebration and dust off every elf on the shelf just a tad early. Oh right... I came in for a diploma frame... there's one shaped like a Manger. I guess that will have to do. Four stars for the excellent service.

The kind of people that think the world revolves around them. Not all, and I'm trying not to be ageist, but it was exclusively the elderly that were intolerable (Important distinction: not every elderly customer was awful, but every awful customer was elderly). So if you're looking for a place where no employee is willing to help, and you want to get screamed at by a senior citizen, simply for existing, this is the place for you!

There are so many interesting and fun items! If you plan on taking your dog with you, there's a grassy area outside to avoid accidents in the store. Also, try to go during a time that's less crowded (maybe when they first open). Homegoods is very popular and the aisles can get tight - be sure to keep your dog comfortable and safe from the hustle and bustle.

Although the country store has beautifully crafted items (where I purchased several items) the plant quality was horrendous. Most everything was starving to be watered, getting leggy and or dying. What was supposed to be a relaxing morning picking out some flowers for my garden, turned into a waste of time looking for some plants to buy. The prices are great, but I'd rather pay a little more for something healthy and happy. I won't be going back.
