Always a fun place to shop, and now that Covid-19 has been less of a struggle, I go here frequently recently I purchased a replacement for the park bench we bought over 10+ years ago, and Ocean State had a great deal on a park bench for a fraction of what the other bench cost.Time will tell if this replacement is of good quality and lasts .

Went here just for two tiki torches. Had about 6 or so on the rack only one of them had the plastic still on it and one I did get was only one with plastic and a wick but the wood pole was a mess with broken pieces. No one will help you.. I dont usually have any complaints about going there. Maybe be fine next time around. Thank you for your response. I appreciate it very much. Brad.

Review №58

We were there a lot Memorial day weekend. Four times to be exact. I needed items that were in addition to what was on the shelf. Four separate times I went there, I asked, and the items were located and brought out to my car once paid for. Great, helpful people at the Palmer store. Exceedingly well stocked too.

Always find the best prices for the best organic foods, Non GMOs, no MSGs

I would say you need to look at the lotion State Job lot in your area and compare it to others in other locations because there is no consistency in the quality of the stores themselves as well as the display of merchandise. use of older stores that have been abandoned by their previous owners is a good choice for a startupbut in the long run youre almost better off to try and start building your own locations to establish what you want your look to be. again its a chain type design for the Northeast there for anything other than three stars would be hard to meet

I love Ocean State and I like this location better than the one on Boston Road in Springfield. Theres a huge selection of products including toys, groceries, gardening supplies, clothing, pet supplies, home goods, etc. I always go here to get spices and those disposable aluminum pans for a dollar or less each. You cant beat that price. They also have an ocean State insider card program now where Monday through Wednesday each week there are special deep discounts on a few products for insiders only. Also when they have crazy deal sales you can usually get items for free because you will get a crazy deal card which is basically an ocean State gift card with a value the same as the price of the item. Or close to it.

Now that they moved into the old Toys R Us spot it is more spaced out and they can add more things. Still need work with enough cashiers though.

Review №85

This is a well organized and clean OSJL. Some great deals can be found here. They carry almost a full line of Bobs Red Mill products and they are much less expensive than at the grocery store. Its not the most glamorous store, but that keeps the prices down. If you see something that is a great deal, get it as it may not be there the next time you visit.

The Palmer, Ma store is probably the best around. I visit about 4 regularly, but Palmer is always clean and well lit with a wider variety than most. If Im not just browsing, I always go to the Palmer store

I had to buy a case of shock. And the case was to heavy to pick up. And I found a guy that works in the store and he was vey nice to help . when I was cashing out I asked for someone to put the case in my car the girl said ok. I pulled up to the store and waited 10 minutes before I went in the store . I walk in and a lady was just signing in and I told her what was going on and she said I sorry this happened and she said I will do it for you . and she did .very nice lady . To top this off Im a handicap lady. .
