An Alabama Shopping Spree
Whether you are searching for the perfect gift for a loved one or looking for that one-of-a-kind piece of artwork to adorn a living room wall, Alabama has the solution to your shopping needs.
The Wharf in Orange Beach features a half-mile-long boardwalk of boutiques and beach stores. A 15-screen movie theater, the Southeast's tallest Ferris wheel, an amphitheater and some mouthwatering restaurants will all add fun to your shopping spree.
In Montgomery's Eastchase, you'll find upscale specialty merchants and lots of dining establishments. Explore the quaint shops of the Mulberry District, one of Montgomery's historic shopping areas, and the Governor's Mansion Gift Shop, which boasts an impressive line of Alabama-made products. In Camden, Black Belt Treasures is a storehouse for artwork and many one-of-a-kind products.
Alabama Flea Markets and Trade Days - such as Mountain Top Flea Market in Attalla, Collinsville Trade Days, and Santuck, near Wetumpka - allow you to bargain for almost anything you can imagine.
Visitors come by the busload to Unclaimed Baggage in Scottsboro, and millions still make their way annually to Birmingham's Riverchase Galleria. The Summit, also in Birmingham, is an open-air center offering a mix of upscale merchants and restaurants not seen anywhere else in Alabama.
Small towns and downtowns are also perfect spots for finding hidden Alabama treasures. Many old buildings have been restored and turned into boutiques, art galleries and restaurants in downtown Mobile. Directly across the bay, Fairhope offers a unique landscape ideal for exploring art-filled boutiques and shops laden with homemade candies and jellies, antiques and more.
In the heart of Cullman, A Touch of German offers a variety of German items including dolls, clocks and steins. Boaz and Foley have long been synonymous with outlet shopping, while the Pillow Factory in Muscle Shoals, and its second location in Tuscumbia, provide the ultimate experience when shopping for goose-down bedding.
Stroll through downtown Decatur and historic Hartselle for toys, artwork, clothing and home accessories. The Gourdie Shop in Mentone is the only shop of its kind in the U.S. Discerning collectors will find plenty of fine furnishings, rare books and collectible glassware at Railroad Station Antique Mall in historic downtown Huntsville.
