Lonely Planet review for Filene’s Basement

The granddaddy of bargain stores is Filene’s Basement. Originally, Filene’s sold its overstocked and irregular items in the basement of the flagship store. Shoppers would flock from miles around for a chance to browse the merchandise at deeply discounted rates. The store became so popular that Filene’s Basement started opening outlets in malls around metropolitan Boston and up and down the East Coast. But this is the original, right here on Washington St, in the basement of the original Filene’s building (even if Filene’s is no longer here).
