Directions for those of us on the
Ocean-State-Job-Lot side of the Lake
From Pickering Corner (just east of the yellow
Pickering House) head
North (Route 109
South)
.
Staying with Rt. 28, head North about 8 miles—to Ossipee's Rt 16—
and opposite Rite Aid—it'll appear on your right, next to Hannaford Market, with a gas station adjacent—within a huge parking lot.
Ocean State has a big selection of pool products, tarps, birdseed, kayak paddles, eyewear, carpeting, seasonal clothing, tent/camping/outdoors products, rope, kitchen- and electrical- accessories, plus an assortment of interesting / discounted foods. A shopper can spend an hour—easily. (Especially when it's cold, windy, and rainy—like today's forecast!)
That they have a big monthly changeovers always makes for interesting shopping.
