Vermont Country Store




Vermont Country Store is a fun place to visit when in New England.

Their catalog, filled with all kinds of hard-to-find items, is sent to homes all over the USA.


We've been there many times in the past. If interested, you can read about some of the times here or here!



In the area where they sell food items, they use a great marketing tool-----free samples.  

Visitors can taste mini bites of all the yummy Vermont cheeses, dip pretzel sticks into raspberry mustard, key lime dip or nibble in tiny squares of fudge!



The toy section attracts the younger set like a magnet.

There are all kinds of personal supplies such as lemon shampoo that will make your hair smell fabulous or old-fashioned perfumes like "Tweed"  and "Evening in Paris."

How about a pair of these wildly colored, warm and woolly socks?



Bring a purse filled with money, though. Prices here will often knock your socks off!

Fun, fun, fun!

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THE VERMONT COUNTRY STORE'S CATALOG?

I think my Colorado boy would like those colorful socks! He doesn't like boring, plain socks and definitely needs woolly to keep his feet warm in winter. :)

I just got my catalog and saw a few things I'd like. I had no idea that is what the building would look like. G;ad to see a photo to match the catalog.

I love the Vermont store and purchase all my bathing suits from there. I've been there but a very long time ago and would love to go back. I get emails from them and their catalog and I am getting a few other items from them as soon as I win the lottery.

Susan, I have always dreamed of going to Vermont. I hear it's just beautiful. I am wondering.....does it snow a lot there? This toy store is charming.

Hi Susan! This looks like the kind of store that I would LOVE. My daughter and I go every year to Brown County Indiana in the fall. There are many shops just like this one. I always wish I could redo my house in the 'country chic'!
I've never seen this store's catalog, but maybe it's a good thing? I'd want everything!!
Blessings,
Ceil
