You’ve probably driven past the other half of the Peter Harris Clothing Outlet on Washington Street in Hanover without taking a second look, but next time you may want to cruise by a little slower. A new store, Savers, has overtaken the mammoth space that once housed an Office Max. You may be asking yourself, what is Saver’s? Saver’s is a land of extremely marked down goodies, basically a bargain shoppers heaven. Everyone remembers the days when they wanted to wear expensive costumes you always wanted to wear for Halloween as a kid but never could, because there was always a cheaper option, like the toilet paper mummy or the white sheet ghost. Saver’s has an entire section of their floor dedicated to Halloween for the season. All of the costumes you wished for as a kid are on sale for under twenty dollars! Saver’s doesn’t only cater to the spooky Halloween season, the rest of its floorplan is covered in discount deals on the best items.
The best part is, the money made at Saver’s goes to charity. Saver’s is partnered with the Epilepsy Foundation of New England, a non-profit based out of Massachusetts dedicated to help fund efforts made to improve the lives of children with epilepsy. When someone donates their gently used items to Saver’s, there have two options. The first way is via truck. A truck from the Epilepsy Foundation of New England would come to their home at their convenience, and pick up the donated items. When the donations are brought to Saver’s, an percentage of the money is donated to the Epilepsy Foundation, depending on the number of items donated. Alternately, customers can donate their items to Saver’s by dropping them off at one of Saver’s many locations, including Plymouth, West Roxbury, and now Hanover. A portion of the profit from Saver’s total sales is also donated to the Epilepsy foundation, which compensates for these bags.
Saver’s has a wide range of items donated to them on a daily basis, so the stock shown on the floors changes rapidly. Saver’s staff is also a huge aspect of why they are such a successful organization. They are helpful and knowledgeable about the donation process. Overall, a shopping experience at Saver’s can be summed up simply; shopper friendly, inexpensive, and successful. Whether you’re looking to score a deal on a sweater, or in desperate need of a revamp to your record collection, Saver’s has you covered. Someone wishing to donate would call 1-888-322-8209 to schedule a pick up at your home.
