Shopping in Vermont

While Vermont is not known for our shopping malls, there are plenty of unique shopping experiences outside of Ludlow including the designer outlets in nearby Manchester, VT or the bounty of boutiques available in other Vermont "main street" communities.  Here are a few options: 

Vermont Country Store

Whether you choose to visit the original location in Weston, or the "new" store in Rockingham, the real country store experience will not be missed.  The store's tagline... "purveyors of the practical and hard-to-find" fits them well.  Where else can you buy a wedge of aged cheddar cut from a 38-pound wheel, a long-lost apothecary brand or candy bar you can't find anywhere else?  Penny candy... well not quite a penny anymore!  Check out their website for more info...

Designer Outlets in Manchester Center

Located in historic Manchester, VT, about 30 miles from Okemo, the designer outlets offer many well-known brands with 30-70% off retail prices.  The quaint village makes a great day trip with plenty of restaurants and shops including Ann Taylor, Polo, J. Crew, Michael Kors, Coach and more.  Check their website for a complete listing of outlets and for specials.
