M-57 Surplus is a small, family-owned business of three generations that has been operating for nearly 30 years. It is not an army navy store. The large retail space carries a very wide and always-changing variety of products. This includes everything from tarps, fishing tackle, tools, hardware, and rope to lawn mower blades, gloves, craft supplies, scrapbooking materials, dishes, big fuzzy blankets, winter accessories, paint, yard tools, bird seed, and more. The inventory is sourced from closeouts, auctions, and various sellers, so you never know what unique find you might discover. Prices are great and not overpriced, with a huge selection of everything one could think of. The staff is consistently noted as extremely friendly, helpful, and nice. Customers describe it as a cool store with something for everyone, perfect for scrapbooking, fishing, and everyday project needs. It is considered a low-risk adventure and a highly recommended stop, even for those just driving through the area, as it likely has what you are looking for or something cleverly close.
