“I walked in just after closing, and they were so kind to me. I was buying flowers for a somber anniversary and they showed me such care. The arrangement's color and texture were a gorgeous. The florist was kind and extremely professional and warm, and the shop is a lovely environment.”
“This frame shop is employee owned! They go above and beyond the call of duty, personalizing the experience of framing in ways that are truly helpful. I can't tell you how many times I've shown up with something needing to be matted or framed, on a deadline for a show, and they've just helped me on the spot. Nobody does that anymore! They are one of the only framing businesses that I have encountered that will do piece work- just one part of the framing process, like cutting a mat, or finishing off the back of a frame with paper and/or wire. They are flexible, accommodating, and exquisitely skilled. This is the only place I will ever go to frame my treasures!”
“Lovely store with super kind and knowledgeable staff and an amazing selection of fabric! Beautiful patterns and solids for quilting, and a decent amount of apparel fabric as well”

Bob's Discount Furniture is growing while its competitors shrink. The Manchester, Connecticut-based retailer reported strong fourth-quarter results in its first earnings call since going public in February, with revenue climbing 8.2% to $648.8 million. Full-year net revenue jumped 16.8% to $2.4 billion, and net income rose to $121.7 million from $87.9 million the prior year. CEO Bill Barton told analysts the company plans to open about 20 new stores in 2026 and sees a path to more than 500 locations by 2035, roughly two and a half times its current 209-store footprint across 26 states.
