Content | <h2><b>Corner Stores & Convenience Stores</b></h2>
<h4><b>Tedeschi's</b></h4>
59 Locust St., Falmouth; 508-457-1191. Hours: 6:00--midnight. Typical corner store and the prices to prove it. Convenient maps, postcards and of course the all important penny candy and Slim Jims!
<h4><b>Woods Hole Market</b></h4>
87 Water St., Woods Hole. 508-540-4792. This is a convenience store that also offers deli sandwiches and some hot entrees and soups. More expensive than Stop & Shop, but far more convenient if you live in Woods Hole and don't have a car.
<h2><b>Grocery Stores</b></h2>
Note that grocery stores in MA generally don't sell alcohol, however, Windfall Market sells beer and wine.
<h4><b>Shaw's</b></h4>
Falmouth Mall; 508-548-4033. Hours: 7am - 10pm. Across the street (sort of) from Stop & Shop. Exotic produce (e.g. jicama, fennel, Asian pears, fancy mushrooms, etc.) can be found reliably here. Pharmacy, Florist, and Redbox movie-rental vending machine inside. Thrifty shoppers may find it worthwhile to shop for sale items between Shaw's and Stop & Shop.
<h4><b>Stop and Shop</b></h4>
Rte. 28 & Jones Rd., Falmouth; 508-540-7481. Hours: Mon-Sat 6am - 12am; Sun 6am - 10pm. The old standby grocery store in Falmouth. Decent produce, meat, and fish. Reasonable prices (regular prices tend to be cheaper than Shaw's) and impressive selection. Pharmacy, and movie rental vending machine. If you have a loyalty card, you can now use gas points at the Stop & Shop gas station next to Kappy's.
<h4><b>Walmart</b></h4>
Falmouth Mall; 508-540-8995. Hours: 7am - 10pm, 7 days/week. Not the best Walmart, if you're a connoisseur. In terms of food, they carry packaged food only (no produce or deli).
<h4><b>Windfall Market</b></h4>
77 Scranton Ave, Falmouth; 508-548-0099. Hours: 8am - 8pm. Falmouth’s answer to Trader Joe’s / Whole Foods. Upscale prices on upscale foods. Nice produce and meats. A great place for that ingredient you have trouble finding elsewhere. Their fresh-baked bread is excellent and shellfish prices are reasonable. <a href="http://www.windfallmarket.com/">http://www.windfallmarket.com</a>
<h4><b>Trader Joe's</b></h4>
655 RT-132, Hyannis; 508-790-3008. Hours: 8am - 9pm every day. Only Trader Joe’s on the Cape, no booze here. There is also a small location at the Hanover Mall off Rte 3 (south of Boston).

<h2><b>Beer, Wine & Liquor</b></h2>
In Falmouth, there are essentially two main retailers for alcoholic beverages, with several smaller "mom and pop" type stores around the greater Falmouth area. Most grocery stores don't sell alcohol, but Windfall sells beer and wine and Ocean State Job Lot sells wine.
<h4><b>John's Liquor Store</b></h4>
726 Main St., Falmouth; 508-548-2287. An intermediate-sized retailer of domestic and imported liquors. John’s also carries full, half and quarter kegs of domestic beer. They offer a 10% discount for WHOI employees (try not to be too obvious about asking for it, though - just put your ID on the counter with your driver's license, and then you'll get the discount and other customers won't feel left out and outraged). Bring a passport if international. Somewhat more expensive than Kappy’s. Ask for help selecting a wine. Open year round, M-Sat 8am - 11pm; Sun 12pm - 6pm.
