“I only visit Kohl's when I have an Amazon return. When you complete an Amazon return, the receipt always has a really good coupon on it. When I'm in this situation I do purchase something so I guess you can say the tactic works but I always leave feeling good about getting 25% off.”

“Very nice, clean store offering lots of discounts on brands!!! Winners style but really more focused on the outdoors we always find something even if we're looking for nothing it's worth the detour!!!”
“Holy Moly! This place is the best! It felt like a blast to the past- when department stores carried everything! I went in for a certain coffee from Maine, and left with many more awesome finds! Can't wait to go back!”
“JUST LOVE SHOPPING THE RE. Been shopping at Homegoods since 1998 when I first walked into their store near Boston. They have quality products, not knockoffs! Their prices are reasonable for the quality they sell. Bought a stroller for my cat which sold for 69.99. No where on the internet could I find it for less than 129.99 and I am a natural born shopper. Very nice sales help and Very clean store. Great Gadgets. Happy shopping.”
“My company uses Hannaford Brothers for a lot of outings. We do all kinds of things outdoors in Maine and we buy the deli meats from Hanford. I just want to say that the deli at the Scarborough Maine location is amazing. In particular an employee by the name of Kris has been very helpful and always kind and her customer service is excellent. She knows the products behind the counter and introduces me to new products all the time. (Cooper cheeses). She gets the five stars.”
“I love this store. there’s something for everyone, the prices are fabulous, the selection changes frequently, and the staff are so nice. Plus this company really seems to do a good things in the community. I shop here regularly, and recommend the store highly.”
“Always clean, easy to navigate, and they always have what I need. Market Basket has better prices so I don't go here often...
I was in a pinch, they had what I needed but I will stick with Market Basket for the regular...
Same same, customer service was great tonight. No changes”
“Couple employees need learn to smile and tune up the not really to bad of attitudes but it doesn't hurt to smile and be positive, but everyone else y'all are awesome love getting cashed out and when I ask a simple question y'all reply and smile unless you're under the weather but even then y'all try to be cheerful.
I've been in there 2 times for something I randomly needed and BOTH TIMES I left without the items, BUT RANDOMLY NEEDING SOMETHING and never looked for it prior to those 2 times is uncontrollable
Love walking around and finding random must need items though and employees are very helpful and even when they know they are completely out of stock they always look on the shelves and check out back and then they confirm that they don't have any in stock for the customers, even the don't know how to smile and keep eye contact on the registers only will make sure they get a positive there out of stock before they assure the customers that your completely out,
Hopefully I get the attention to the upper management team with this Post. Either your Portland employees should be considered for a raise or something that shows appreciation and not a thank you for being such hard workers”

“My wife loves this place. It's always exciting to see what they will happen to have. It's not quite as busy as the Marshalls by Walmart. We had good service when I was there.”
“Went in looking for a suit for my son’s prom this coming weekend. Never have bought a suit before and probably looked lost. we were greeted by Pat. She was extremely kind and knowledgeable helping us select the perfect fit. Thank you so much for your help, Pat!!”
“Great customer service, prices are average compared to other Portland shops, and super cute products. I bought myself a long sleeved t-shirt that was half off and a stuffed moose for my friend. If you are purchasing something half off, double-check the total as the system does not automatically ring it up and they had to refund me.”
“I had a wonderful shopping experience here. The merch is reasonably priced and good quality. I bought these really cool stylish boots that I love. I found the store to be clean as well, all the floors in the aisles I went were spotless. However, some items had fallen off the shelves into the aisle posing safety hazard. I did overhear the manager talking to a potential employee so I guess they are aware that they need help in the store and are working on it. The store associates were very nice, friendly and professional. I think I would definitely come back here again. I enjoyed my shopping experience here.”
“Great selection of items. However, pricier on many of the same items that can be found further down the road at lower cost. Some unique items for sure but compare prices down the road , on the Maine souvenirs you’ll be seeing a short walk further. ❤️??”
“Joseph was EXTREMELY helpful with exchanging a pair of Levi's for the correct size I needed!!! I definitely wouldn't hesitate to buy anything here in the future! 5 stars,! Highly recommended!!!”
“There was plenty of stock. Lots of good buys. I did find the store to be a bit of a mess despite it being early in the day, but I am sure that's due to a shortage of staff.”
“I love this place and not just because it's close. The staff are kind and always helpful and I have very rarely had a bad experience in the 10ish years Ive lived here”
“First things first my hairstylist is just absolutely amazing no matter where she goes and does. She always goes above and beyond for her clients. & I am so happy for her happiness now, since she has joined your team.
Secondly I am so glad I followed her over when she moved to your salon. This salon is so much better than what I was used to all the way around. The environment and atmosphere is just so much more relaxed and peaceful. I feel welcomed and like I belong every time I go in there. Great job and thank you for what you do.
lastly, I just wanted to say that they are very workable and make it very easy to make appointments weather that's online or via phone call. As of what I know from experience they are very prompt if you have a scheduled appointment.
I would definitely recommend this salon.”

“Best Walmart evah! It doesn't hold the vast amount of items as others but I think that's exactly where it's charm lies. It's quick, convenient and the employees are always helpful and friendly! Add the bonus that you don't have to walk three football fields to get a certain item ?”
“I wanted to update my review of this particular Walmart for a very specific reason (I've finally healed from the trauma the elephant inflatable caused; I realize that was more of an issue with Walmart.com than the Walmart in Scarborough), and that's their impressive meat alternative selection in the freezer aisle! As of writing this, they offer not only these well-known brands but an impressive selection from their individual portfolios! Like: + Morning Star Farms (chik patties*, sausage, crumbles, bacon, chick'n and waffle sandwiches, and sausages on a stick wrapped in blueberry pancakes*) + Gardein (mandarin orange crispy chick'n*, ground be'f, chick'n strips, f'sh filets*, turk'y cutlets*, and their ultimate chick'n filet*s, ultimate nuggets°, ultimate buffalo chick'n wings, ultimate sausage links°) + Beyond (plant-based seared steak tips, meatballs, nuggets, crumbles, sausage) + Impossible (bowls, chicken patties, meatballs) + JUST (folded egg*) AND they also offer a bunch of newer brands/brands I haven't found elsewhere in Greater Portland: + Tattooed Chef (plant based beef burrito* and chicken burrito bowls, plant based cheese enchiladas, açai bowls, and more [I am starting to see these at select Hannafords now]) + Daring (plant chicken wings°, cajun chicken wings, grilled chicken pieces, lemon and herb chicken pieces) + Omni (plant-based potstickers°, spring rolls°, luncheon meat, crab cakes°) + Simulate (plant-based tenders°, spicy nuggs, and dino-shaped nuggs) + Wholly Veggie (plant-based mozzarella style sticks, cheddar style jalapeño sticks°, ranch cauliflower wings, buffalo cauliflower wings, and more) + Happi Foodi (plant-based potato hash bowl, shawarma bowl, bulgogi bowl, enchilada bowls) * = items I particularly love! ° = items I haven't tried yet but am excited to! While I try to support local as much as I possibly can, sometimes my budget is just tight. A lot of our grocery budgets are tight. And if you're also trying to live an entirely (or at least mostly) plant-based lifestyle, things get even more expensive. It's all a balance, right? I don't want to buy from Walmart, I do want to buy from these brands; these brands are cheaper at Walmart. See what I'm saying? (I do stand by my previous review on some points, though. This particular Walmart: - has the most chaotic parking lot; no one knows who's doing what, there are some places you can drive in but not drive out, some places that mysteriously have dead-ends, and being a pedestrian? YIKES - so park as far as you can and walk in is my advice! - is **always** dirty. - the Customer Service line is as confusing as the parking lot - skip if possible.)”
“Great store!!! Very clean. Awesome and really nice and helpful associates!!! The store is often very low on product availability in the perishable food & refrigerated beverages section, but the rest of the store is super clean and well stocked!!!
I always really enjoy shopping at this Target store. Everyone is super nice, and the store is very clean and bright, and the music is nice and varied.
Target is a great store to shop at. They also have certain foods & vegan foods that no other store carries, which is so so so convenient, because it consistently beats Amazon's prices by 3 times over (Amazon charges an arm and a leg for foods and drinks due to the cost of shipping heavy items).
Target is my go-to store for many items, including household!!! They also have a ton of great promotions going on all the time, although they can be very confusing sometimes when they don't work when they should have. The front desk is normally very helpful in fixing things that didn't apply, or if you buy something during a week with no active Target Circle bonus, and then you get a Target Circle bonus literally 1-6 days later.
The app can be confusing, and it says things are in stock in like Quantity 10, but you get to the store and there is 1-2 and often zero of them. But I feel like that's a problem faced by a ton of stores, including Walmart (inaccurate inventory listed on website and app).
Highly recommend this Target, and just Target in general! I never realized how many good food deals there are here on items I buy semi-often in large, bulk quantities. Just make sure you clip coupons often and pay attention. I've messed up a lot of my deals this way, or bought food and forgot to clip the coupon offer or deal. You can miss out on so many savings, it's a major bummer. Just go talk to the front, and they will always do their best to help you, in my experience, if you bring your original receipt and items with you and it was a fairly recent buy.”
“Sometimes, it is sane in there, especially before 8. The rest of the time, be prepared for the crowds and lines at the few full service registers and the self-check ones with the occasional software issues.”
“Pretty good service I always get as a regular customer of your Auburn Hannaford. One thing I’d love to see is deals on your 12-packs of Hannaford soda!! I see deals that coke and Pepsi offer but never on Hannaford brand soda. I believe your Hannaford soda is about 4.19-4.29 per 12-pack. Maybe run a deal like 3 12-packs for $10.00 I don’t mind Hannaford soda but deals like I just stated would be great. I’m curious to see where your sales would go on your 12-packs if an offer/deal like that was offered. I’d stick up for sure! Also, I want to give a shout out to your Deli team! Jessica really runs a great Deli with an amazing team. Know me by first name and ALWAYS take damn good care of me!! Consider me satisfied. End of good rant”
“I saw an associate helping an elderly man, she was so nice to him, he was getting g a sports jacket and shirt, I wanted to go to her after and thank her for being so nice to him, she was helping him get the right size and showing him how it looked in a mirror. Very impressed. I wish I had her name. It was in the Westbrook, Me store”
