The Fashion Exchange TRULY breaks all stereotypical images one might hold of a consignment shoppe. It is, in fact, a virtual oasis of exquisite, gently worn (often new, with the original tags) designer clothing. The clothing is in impeccable condition and priced at a fraction of what you would pay in a high-end boutique or department store. The jewelry and accessories, which the owner carefully selects from collections she finds in New York, are reason enough to spend a quiet afternoon, perusing the shop. The atmosphere is tranquil and unhurried, with none of the high-pressure sales-pitches you endure in other clothing/ jewelry stores. Many of the customers have been loyal patrons for 20+ years: a true testiment to the enduring appeal of The Fashion Exchange. It is WELL worth a trip to visit this one-of-a kind shop, but allow yourself plenty of time to explore. This is not a shopping experience you are likely to rush through!

Great place to go when you don't want the run of the mill service or clothes. Great gift ideas. Located in the Big Y Shopping Plaza, parking is never a problem. The clothing is top quality and has enough of a selection to keep the fussiest kids happy. The hours could be longer but they are okay. Clothing is very age appropriate.

this pharmacy feels like an old-fashined drug store, but is really a full service pharmacy that also sells cosmetics, food, ect. The staff is very friendly and on top of things, and the place is always kept very clean. Good parking.

This tiny little shop is actually quite large..just packed with a lot of merchandise so you feel a little claustraphobic, but the owner is friendly and helpful and you can browse in this store for a long time - (items go from floor to ceiling) and may still miss something. The items are mostly vintage antiques consigned from estate sales and auctions with a ton of history..there's also a forgotten basement that has great fireplace accessories. Park in front, go inside and you'll be taken back to a much more refined era. If you love antiques...you will be in heaven in this place !

This is a spacious store has lots to choose from for bridal and formal women's wear. The shopping I have done here is has been primarily for prom dresses, so I cannot speak to the bridal service. However, I can say that they have a tasteful selection of evening dresses. Nothing can be purchased off the rack, so leave time for ordering and fitting.
They have their own parking lot and it is a very convenient shop to get to.

We had a pile of watches at home that were gathering dust waiting for replacement batteries. I pass the Clock Shop on South Main Street often during the week and decided to call them about the watch batteries. YES! They do replacements. The shop is in back the building with ample parking. The variety of clocks in the shop is awe inspiring: grandfather clocks, ships clocks, alarm clocks (even one that crows like a rooster!), and all kinds of wall clocks, desk clocks and cuck-oo clocks.

This thrift store may be small in space- but it is jam-packed full of great finds. If you spend some time going through the super cramped racks, you are sure to find a few things that are rare and precious. AND CHEAP! Most pieces of clothing here do not top $3 / piece and they have bag sales- stuff a bag for $5. They also have an interesting selection of shoes and accessories. It is almost impossible to move around in here due to the crowdedness, but it is one of the best usages of square footage by a thrift store that I have yet to see.

Great little place to find a gift or some decorative item. It is a small space loaded with rustic treasures. They also sell really nice seasonal plants like mums, annual and perrenials.
Parking is easy as they have their own lot.

More
The Meeting House on Main Street in Newtown is right in the middle of West Street. In the old colonial style of having the main town building in the middle of a main street through town. Actually the meeting house was originally located in the middle of a very wide main street and was moved to it's present location in 1792.
The Meeting House is exactly at the Flag Pole in Newtown - another town landmark (some say traffic hazard!). The meeting house is used for weddings, memorial services, community events. My choir - The Newtown Choral Society performs there in May and December.
The parking is limited - a few spaces in front of the meeting house - but there is parking behind the library and businesses along main street that are a short, pleasant walk to the stone steps of the meeting house.

IT IS NICE TO KNOW THAT SOME COMPANIES ARE STILL RELIABLE. WITH THE PRICE OF HOME HEATING OIL RISING IN THE PAST COUPLE YEARS THERE HAS BEEN MORE THAN 1 COMPANY IN THIS AREA THAT DID NOT DELIVER OIL AS PROMISED. IN SOME CASES PEOPLE PRE-PAID FOR THEIR OIL AND NEVER RECEIVED IT. NOT ME. HOLCOMB HAS BEEN IN NEWTOWN LONGER THAN I HAVE BEEN ALIVE AND HAS PROVEN TO BE THE MOST RELIABLE IN THE AREA. THEY ARE FULL SERVICE INCLUDING INSTALLING HEATING & A/C EQUIPMENT AND 24/7 EMERGENCY SERVICE. THEY MAY NOT BE THE CHEAPEST BUT DON'T FORGET- IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT PROBABLY IS!
