“So many cool things in one store!! I wish we had more time to browse. It was a cozy treasure trove of handmade goods, DIY supplies, and unique gifts. Friendly staff. Perfect for crafters or anyone seeking something special! We will be back!”
“The sheer amount of History and actual high-grade fine art packed into this store in actually unbelievable. Many of the pieces are so rare and historic in nature that you'd never see them in any normal antique store- which makes visiting here an experience more like visiting a museum or a gallery- truly incredible. However, if they're going to focus on fine art and history they should do so... There isn't any clear separation between these high profile gallery worthy pieces and the regular antiques- and it appears that they unfortunately don't know how to appraise the latter. From personal experience appraising antiques throughout New England, the lower-tier items in this shop are easily 300-400% overpriced. Unless you are a gallery curator or a fine art collector, this is not the place for antiquing. This is a great business, but they need to focus on what they're good at.”
“This is a wonderful gift shop with truly artistic and hand made artisan pieces. Mostly made here in Vermont. Their pewter pieces are amazing and great quality souvenirs. This is not your run of the mill gift shop with the same stuff made in China you see everywhere else. This is top quality and unique artisan work.”
“The Country Store on Main is the cutest shop! I enjoyed shopping here - it's a great place to find a nice gift! I loved the children's section. I found a cute children's book for my baby.”
Two familiar names now share one storefront. Bed Bath & Beyond and The Container Store opened their first co-branded location in Fort Worth, Texas, on May 16, and the concept is spreading to nearly two dozen stores in what the company calls phase one.
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.
