| While in Freeport, visitors can visit the
various factory outlets, familiarizely L.L. Bean, the mail-order
outdoor recreation outfitter whose headquarters are located
there. In fact, one theory has it that Bean gave birth to the
factory outlet when it began offering slightly flawed
merchandise at big savings. The store -- which is open 24 hours
a day -- also has an L.L. Kids store that includes a climbing
wall. While visiting Maine's markets and shops, be on the
lookout for bargains in wood crafts, Indian baskets, pottery,
ceramics and regional food products. Minerals and gemstones are
also a good find. Blue Hill is especially noted for its pottery
crafted from local clays. Don't miss the chance to go antiques
shopping in Maine. After all, many of the most coveted American
antiques originated in Maine and are still there waiting to be
discovered. Top Cities in Maine
