Ogunquit Trading Post

This is the perfect place to go if you’re looking to get a bunch of little trinkets for loved ones on your way back home after a fantastic weekend in Maine… Accept for when the young cashier is too busy checking out your girlfriend to remember to put all of the $ 65 worth of stuff you just bought in the bag for you… After wandering around the same section of the store as her for 20 minutes pretending to be tidying things up. Of course I didn’t make this connection until 3 days later, when I went to get the gifts I had bought for my family members. Several of them weren’t in the bag, which I hadn’t opened since the day I shopped there. This included the shot glass he conveniently said he really liked when we were cashing out. Extremely disappointing after putting a lot of thought into each gift. Don’t even bother having them wrap everything for you! Ask for the tissue paper to wrap it yourself and check your bag when you leave!

My husband got to make his first trip to the Ogunquit Trading Post during our Fall 08 Foliage Tour; we brought his parents here during the second week they joined us!
I first visited the Trading Post back in 1988. Great place to buy reasonably priced soveniers and postcards. Here’s what their website says: Since 1952, the Logan Family’s Ogunquit Trading Post is known for the largest selection and lowest prices in the New England seacoast area.

Moccasins, turquoise jewelry, hot pads, Maine coast knick knacks, some food items, shells, Old Salts figurines, lobster buoys, etc. A little hokey but a fun place to look around and get some good buys on gifts to take back home.
