点评:Yummies is one of our must-visit stops when we're traveling between Maine and Florida... and back again. From local sweets to vintage candies (that we'd though weren't made any more), this store has it all, in abundance! No matter what one item we plan to buy there, we always leave with far more.
Be prepared for the aisles to be narrow-ish for the volume of people who might be there. It's worth any awkwardness. Think of it as an opportunity to look over more candies as you're waiting for the aisle to open up a bit. And allow at least 10 minutes for a brief visit; you're likely to linger there far longer!
Also, if you see any clothing items you like there, buy them! You're not likely to see those designs anywhere else. (In fact, my husband often buys two of any that he especially likes, in case the first one - a shirt or hat, usually - might wear out or be lost.)
Of course, there's no charge to visit this great store, even though many consider it a "tourist attraction." (It is, but locals like us shop there, too.)
Yummies always feels like a family-run business, and the staff are consistently nice.
Because of how full - and tall - the displays are, if you're traveling with children, it's best to visit Yummies when the parking lot is half full or less. From our experience (and lots of visits), most shoppers are adults, and little kids can feel overwhelmed when the store is crowded.
翻译:每当我们从缅因州前往佛罗里达州……再返回时,Yummies都是我们必定会光顾的店铺。从当地特产甜点到那些我们原以为早已停产的古早味糖果,这家店应有尽有,种类多到数不胜数!不管原本只打算买一样东西,最后我们总会买回很多。
不过要提醒的是,考虑到店内可能人头攒动,过道会显得相当狭窄。但这一切的拥挤与不便都值得啦。可以把这当作一个机会——在等待通道稍微空旷些时,顺便看看更多的糖果。至少预留10分钟来短暂逛逛吧;实际上你很可能会在那里逗留更久呢!
另外,如果你看到喜欢的服饰,就买下来吧!这种款式在其他地方恐怕很难见到。(事实上,我丈夫常常把特别喜欢的物品买两份,通常是衬衫或帽子,以防第一件用坏或弄丢。)
当然了。参观这家很棒的商店是免费的,尽管很多人把它视作“旅游景点”。确实如此,但像我们这样的当地人也会在这里购物。
Yummies给人的感觉始终像是一家家族经营的店铺,店员们也一直都很友善。
由于货架上的商品既多又高,如果您是带着孩子一起前往,最好在停车场只有半数车位被占用甚至更空的时候来光顾Yummies。以我们的经验来看(我们去过很多次),大多数顾客都是成年人。当商店里人很多时,小孩子很容易感到不知所措。
