Has anyone been recently? Is it worth a trip?

I went over the summer - they seemed to have gotten rid of/downsized the scrapbooking/crafting section. Very different from when I was there a few years ago. I can try to stop by this week and check it out again. Life got in the way but I've started to craft/stamp/scrapbook again.
Are you looking for anything specific?

Thank you for the very kind offer. If it's not too much trouble or out of your way, I'm curious if they have any Simple Stories collections. I went at the end of August and was so disappointed at the lack of paper crafting items. I didn't realize they were significantly downsizing that section. I live about an hour and a half north but will be traveling to CT at the end of the month and was considering taking a detour, if they have any new stuff.

I haven't made it up there to that one yet. I found out about it just before COVID hit and wanted to go visit it and The Boston General Store. I'm sorry that they are downsizing the SB stuff. That's disappointing.

I hope they still have a section, I'm hours away but it's the only one I can go to when we head up to Boston!

OK I stopped by there earlier today -- the scrapbooking section is down to one small section and the other section is drawing supplies. I have to figure out how to attach an image. They have some Spellbinders and Gemini dies. And they actually have a few of the Simple Stories collection kits (the small ones for $9.99). Very few, only around 5 or so. And some other paper pads. I would not necessarily drive out of my way! So disappointed by how little they have
