This is a great shopping spot for bargain hunters of all kinds. Gets busy around the holidays and rainy days during the summer tourist season, but it’s totally worth it. Clean store and helpful staff.

This is not only a Marshalls it is a Marshalls/Home Goods.(They are in the same conglomerate as TJ Maxx) I always insist my Mom bring me here when I am visiting her. My one bit of advice would be if you see something especially furniture type stuff-buy it. My Mom found a cat tower she wanted and the next week she said all the other ones were gone. I often have to talk myself out of buying stuff-how many Marc Jacobs Perfume gift sets does one need?(As of now only Lola because they seem to be phasing it out and it was the ONLY one in the store) It is crowded-I never feel like its crazy-they usually have enough cashiers working so the lines move pretty fast.

I’m not a big shopper, but this is a good store. It big… really big. But fairly easy to navigate. If you’re on vacation and forgot something at home, you can probably find it here… and not pay an arm and a leg for it. If it’s a rainy day, this where a lot of vacationers will end up. The lines tend to move fairly quickly, even when busy. Selection ample for clothing. They have electronic accessories; mostly for mobile phones. They have a rather large home good sections as well. The kitchen section is well stocked too. If you’re rental is missing utensils, you can pick some extra up here.

This place is a bit overwhelming. It’s so big inside but still seems a bit cramped. And it’s always packed. I’ve found some great men’s brands in here before(Vince, Tommy Bahama, Robert Graham & even RRL) but most of it is your usual crappy stuff you find at any discount brands store. Some of the better stuff can be just horrendously ugly and/or in a weird size. They do offer men’s(& children’s) shoes in addition to just women which is a plus. I always have a hard time finding anything decent for myself. The Home Goods section is where this store really shines. They have almost anything for your home you could imagine. You just need to really take your time in this place because of its size. If you look long enough you just might find something worth purchasing.

This place has tons of things. And that can be good or bad. Narragansett AND Wakefield need more affordable clothing stores. We used to have so many! Now they are gone. You can go to Job Lot but there’s no guarantee that you’ll find something there that’s not sweats. At Marshalls you’d better be an unusual size because that’s typically what you will find most of. If you are a large man or woman expect few pieces and weird patterns or strange styles. You can get some regular clothing there also. Just don’t expect them to always be in stock. This is a problem with most Marshalls(and T J Maxx’s,) T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, HomeGoods, A.J. Wright are banded together in a multi-company agreement. Don’t ask me, that is just how it is. They are in America, Canada and Europe. They intentionally sell the clothes they do so that people have to pick through them as a «treasure-hunt shopping experience». This kind of shopping is what promotes my habit of buying online. But sometimes you need to go out and get something. If you are a size 12 tranny and need lime green glittering pumps, Marshalls will satisfy you. If you are size 16 expect to be disappointed when you need a simple red blouse. If that cow pattern prom dress with purple satin frills catches your eye maybe you’ll forget about the top! I don’t mean to snarky but I need a store that will sell the basics. Little black dress, ankle socks in cotton, basic panties, jeans without patches, simple tops in real colors, you rarely find them here. They do have a huge area that sells shoes though. They also are interesting to look at. Stiletto combat boots, Minnie Mouse Mary Janes, metallic blue gladiator sandals along with other pumps and sneakers you’ll find something. They also have a Home Goods within the store. I’ve gotten my 600 count sheet set there at a bargain bargain price because some of the truly tragic stuff is on the clearance shelf. And you can find some great stuff there if you’re lucky. The kitchen ware is on par with the many gadgets that are offered in catalogs for people who have too much money and don’t cook. Who really needs a garlic press that will last until Armageddon? And are you really going to buy a plastic baggie that has cocoa mix and sprinkles and marshmallows for $ 2.99? This is an excellent place to come to if you need to waste some time before a movie or an appointment. Look at all this stuff. It looks like Santa’s attic! Could somebody please open a clothing store or department store that sold some practical items? The Dollar Tree next door makes more sense.

Stuff. And lots of it. At good prices. This one is a «Super» Marshall’s which means, I guess, that this particular location is larger than others. It sure seems big. Today’s journey was unsuccessful. Flip flops. Leather. Somewhat dressier than what you might wear to the beach. This because my sweet Oakley Strap Jacket sandals blew out on me last weekend and I then looked like Quasimodo, dragging my right foot around in a blown out flip flop. But I digress. Mens and ladies clothing and footwear(although the men’s footwear section is definitely lacking). Brand names. Good prices. House stuff. I do enjoy this place.
