Marshalls

I LOVE Marshalls but this is one of the worst ones to go to. I stepped in gum in the kids section and waited almost 10 minutes in line. The employees look miserable and get easily frustrated when asked a question. Dont rub your bad mood on me! Won’t be going there for a while.

Huge selection and a nice staff! The store is clean and organized too — which is super rare for Marshalls. Big and clean dressing rooms too. Really like this location!

In general, I like Marshall’s. The only problem is you have to constantly check it for stuff and it does not always have what you need. The prices are ok … sometimes you get an amazing deal and then other times I feel like items are inflated. I do agree with other reviews that I think it is not very organized and can be messy when compared to other ones in the area. When I am looking for anything, I always stop here first just to make sure I don’t miss out on a bargain.

Shooping here this week was quite frustrating. The store was disorganized and things were everywhere. The slection was sub par and it juts seemed dirty in here. My past experience at htis store was not like this so I am not sure what is going on here. The checkout staff was painfully SLOW and seemed to be in their own world and talking to the other staf members without acknowleding my presence. The home items were few and far between as was most of the items in this store. I will try another location from now on becasue I have had better luck at the other stores North of here.

In general I like Marshalls and Tj Maxx … sometimes I find amazing deals. I bought a Tummy jacket for $ 20 that was originally priced at $ 180.
However, this specific Marshalls is just ok! It might be the best shop in the Arsenal mall beside GAP outlet but still it doesn’t have a good variety of products. Staff are a bit slow. One time it took 15 mins for one of the staff to find a price of one product.
Overall, it’s ok if you just want to waste an hour going through the shop to find great deals.

This Marshalls may just be a glowing beacon of hope in the Arsenal Mall! (well, the recent addition of Sports Authority helps as well)
I used to shop at Marshalls a lot growing up (and TJ Max) Always a great place to get deals. We were not a wealthy family, and finding Name brand Jeans for $ 25 at marshals instead of getting $ 20 jeans at KMart of Caldor (yes, Caldor — am I really that old now?!).
Somewhere along the way, I lost site of the value, and became to stuck up. My frequent scouring of the store turned into an occasional visit to get sports wear (yes, somehow for about 10 years all I bought at marshalls was workout gear, sweatpants, shorts, warm up pants, etc)
Why did I stop shopping there? I still saw the value of getting these items that I didnt want to overpay for — yet for all my other clothing needs, I felt like paying more. What was WRONG with me!
So finally over the last few months I have decided it was worth looking around more than 20% of the store. Should I Assume it is the same it has always been?
Well I am glad I finally got off my high horse and decided to get a bargain again!
And not just on the normal casual clothes — but on everything. Nice Cole Haan Shoes — Yes please! Ralph Lauren suits — Of course! Lucky Jeans — wow, why are they so CHEAP!
I then started to notice some things… like the Izod shirts I bought at Macys… for ¹⁄₃ the price. And the Calvin Klein belts I bought at macys… for ¹⁄₃ the price…
Well, you get the point. Yes, the selection may not be as good as a department store, and you may have to search, but it is WORTH it!
Some of the deals
Lucky Jeans — normally $ 75 for $ 25
Cole Hann Chukka Boots — NOrmally $ 150 for $ 69.99
Village Candle Jar Candles — Normally $ 19.99 (at stop and shop), for $ 7
I could go on and on and on for the list…
it is a great place for ‘staples’ (tshirts, underwear, socks, etc). Always a lot of ‘name brands’ (do you need tommy hilfiger undershirts? no, but if they are $ 9.99 for a four pack its worth it!)
Wow, I have been missing out — and if you do not go there, you have been missing out as well!
Can it be a little disorganizes at times? sure. people rummage, and look, and scrounge since they do not have a full size and color run of every good. But if you are willing to look — you can get a great deal and save some cash!

After scoring a fall jacket and sweater for $ 13.48 from Forever21, Marshall’s seemed very expensive to me. Hahaha.
Nevertheless, my boyfriend did find Nike sneakers for $ 34.99, and I thought they had a great selection of coats, workout apparel, and dresses for women.

Marshalls i Marshalls whether you are in Stoneham (which by the way I am) or in Watertown.
I don’t like the fact that they make you wait on line if you have to return something — what happened to the one girl that did all that?
I went during school shopping days and lemme tell you, some customers are just plain slobs. Why can’t you just put the stuff back on the rack, yo?! Stop dropping it on the floor.
The sizes are all over the place and finding something that you really want can be a like finding a needle in a haystack but hey, I like haystacks.

Whoa… was Watertown just hit with a tornado?
No, that’s just the vibe this Marshall’s location seems to be aiming for.
I enjoy perusing this store, but they are usually cleaned out of the smaller sizes.

This location is pretty crowded, but they have some great deals. Big shoe selection. They also have a baby section with baby books! Most about $ 6, which is half price or less for nice quality picture books. Also a nice home section. Parking can be difficult on weekends, but during the week you can practically park at the door!

I was very disappointed with the staff ringing in clothes at point of purchase. Kevin hit the button before his person was done being rung up, never mind paying and thus caused us to come to teh register early and have people behind us pass us and get rung up by other staff first. This would not have been a big deal but he rolled his eyes when we complained about it. And said sorry «i hit the button too quick» but in reality it seemed like he wanted to look like he was moving faster than he was and the line was long. Also the population that frequents this location is so rude. All I needed was a pair of shoes. I hate shoe shopping so I move quick but people would stand next to you and say umm can you move while you are bending over putting shoes on. Why not just go around me or down the aisle and around? It was such a rude place that by purchasing time I was ready to scream and then this guy with the cutting drove me crazy! I will not go back.

I was mildly impressed with the selection of house goods and kitchen gadgets. I finally found a tea infuser for just $ 3.99 after almost being conned at Cardullo’s for a $ 12 one.
However, the clothing left a lot to be desired for me and my female shopping buddy. Like the Filene’s Basement above it, there seemed to be one section of designer labels, and a lot of filler that surrounded it.
However, Marshall’s gets three stars because I’ve come to expect this right before they get a new shipment of designer goodies, and their filler designs are far less pretentious and more affordable than their FB counterparts.

The only good store at the Arsenal Mall.
Customer service is non existent though.
However, they good pretty much everything you need at a good price.

Great place! Nonexistent staff, but I think that’s to be expected. Good selection, I’ve never found shoes here but otherwise they have a decent junior’s section. I find stuff in the women’s section too.
Latest buys: two pairs of skinny jeans; DKNY for $ 19 and Levi’s for $ 16. Not bad.

This is the only good thing about that god foresaken Arsenal mall.
They do tend to carry more higher end stuff at this location, probably for the suburban stay at home moms. Tons of yoga stuff too.
I love it. Brand names for ¹⁄₃ of MRP.

Marshall’s, you’re too expensive for what you are. I don’t want to spend $ 50 on a sweater that I had to find by rummaging through your disorganized racks for twenty minutes.
Sure, there are some good deals to be found at Marshall’s, but I feel like for the shopping experience, they need to lower their prices. Did their prices go up over the past few years?

Must not be a bad place to work, since I’ve seen the same managers there for years. If the employees are happy and stay that means the place is okay for shoppers
I can never get over how patient the clerks manning the dressing room are – the people who hand you the number tickets.
I always find something and at a markdown’ed price.

Marshalls, I must say that because of you I think I have the capacity to justify just about any purchase in the world. Thank you for fostering the development of this skill.
Four stars because I almost always have good luck in the shoe section. Even when I am not shopping for shoes because I am trying to stick to a budget. (Grrrr.) One day I wandered in here and wandered out with three new pairs of shoes. (I wandered to the cashier first, no worries.)
Also, it is rare that laziness is a good thing in retail employees but here it is. Case in point, I was shopping for towels one day and found one that I really liked. Cashier points out that there is no tag, glances at the very distant towel section waaaay out back, looks at me and says «uhh…so is $ 2 cool with you»? Hell yeah it is! Let me run back there and stock up on some more.
Cute (and cheap!) shoes, lazy-to-the-customer’s-advantage sales clerks, with the potential for some cute tops. Definitely worth a trip.

It’s been said before. The Arsenal Mall is a bit scary. But, it’s minutes from my work and sometimes a necessity. I stopped into Marshall’s again today and I was reminded how much I love their new shoe dept. It’s a thousand times better than what it used to be — at this location anyway.
Anyway, I adore Tahari. Anything Tahari. Everything Tahari. I have gotten several pairs of Tahari shoes here — including an incredible pair of brown leather dressy flats today (for $ 29). And, I got a pair of brown Tahari dress pants (only $ 59).
I’m a bargain shopper so I can’t bring myself to shop at the «real» Tahari store in Back Bay. I’m totally okay with last season’s discounts available at Marshall’s. They’re still in style and they still says Tahari and we all know, that’s what really counts.

I am an avid Marshall’s shopper, and a PRO at it, too. This one, in Watertown is my favorite. 2^nd Place: South Bay, Dorchester; 3^rd Place: Downtown Crossing; 4^th: Medford.
If you enjoy the thrill of finding something new each and every time you go, Marshall’s is for you. Sometimes (seldom) you may not find anything, but you can usually find something. They get extra points for having layaway! Can you believe that? Who has layaway these days?
I prefer the men’s section and guy’s clothes, and all the Marshall’s will keep you stylish and looking flyy for budget friendly prices. I can’t say much more about Marshall’s, other than it’s my favorite place to shop!
My wife loves to go, too, although she prefers TJ Maxx and H&M. She always find neat stuff, too.
Some of my friends laugh at me because there are carts, and they are too «wanna be bougie» to place their clothing items in a cart, but that’s okay– I outdress them EVERY day of the week.
