Huntington Plaza ~ Shelton, CT ~ One-Stop Shopping

Ugh...Do I ever have a list of things to do today. This is going to take me ALL day. But wait!...I think I may just be able to get most of this done at Huntington Plaza.

Huntington Plaza, Shelton CT

Huntington Plaza, nestled across from the Huntington Green in Shelton, CT, offers an eclectic selection of businesses to suit many of your needs.

So, let's put Huntington Plaza to the test and see if I can check a few things off my list.

What Do I Need?	Where Can I Get It?
Milk, Bananas, Cold Cuts, Cereal, OJ, Angus Steaks	Beechwood Market
Hard rolls and bagels, birthday cake	Royal Bakery
Birthday card and wrapping paper	Gifts by the Green
Birthday gift - maybe Pandora jewelry?	Gifts by the Green
Bottle of wine for dinner gift	Huntington Package Store
Make dinner reservations for brother's birthday	Wellington Restaurant
Get eyeglasses adjusted	Lifetime Eyecare
Ship a UPS Package	Center Services
Get help for noisy laptop	Shelton Computer Services
Pick up paint samples for dining room	Huntington Paint
Get hair trimmed	Hair Hugo, Luna E'clips or Warners Hair
Check out microwave ovens - mine is acting up	Ted's Appliance

Hmm......I sure saved a LOT of time by getting ALL this done at Huntington Plaza in Shelton AND I saved a LOT of gas money, too. Think I'll stop in and have a quick bite to eat at Pagliaro's Lunch, Center Deli or Sassafras.

Maybe I'll treat myself to a manicure and pedicure at Modern Nails and then make an appointment for a massage at In Touch Therapeutic Bodyworks. Now, that's the best way to relax after a busy day!

As I am leaving, I'll just top off my gas tank at Huntington Gulf and call it a day. Maybe get some air in my tires, too!

You, too, can save time AND gas money by visiting Huntington Plaza in Shelton for one-stop shopping.

Thanks, Joni. The video didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it to due to many production issues, so I hope the blog post makes it a little more interesting. Huntington Plaza really is a convenient place to go for many, many daily necessities.

Hi Barbara...Been there. In fact, I picked out the color for many walls in my house in Huntington Paint Store. I went there with two of my sisters that lived up there and found what I wanted. The woman that owned it at the time told me about a color her daughter in Florida used and I loved it.

I think you did a very nice job with the video and the whole presentation. Posting all of those links makes this a valuable post for locals.

Hi Kate -- Huntington Paint is VERY helpful in getting you connected with the right paint color. They have done it for me many times.

Now you HAVE to promise me that the next time you visit your sister you MUST call me. We can have lunch at one of the Huntington Plaza restaurants!

Barbara, What a Great Post! Love how you had the lists...Great exposure for the merchants!

Thanks, William. Just want to get the names of all those small businesses out there. There's a pretty good selection of stores/businesses to fulfill daily needs.

John -- Most of them do not have their own websites, so maybe this post can drive some business their way.
