SHOPPING TIME

Stop first at Gone Bananas, an Army-Navy outlet store with a bright green and yellow sign that is hard to overlook. The store has military-themed hats, collector’s patches ($3.98) and fatigues, not to mention camouflage paint ($5.99) and aggressive bumper stickers ($2). There is a whole section devoted to work boots, and a smaller selection of children’s clothes. The large shop also sells tents, bright orange and yellow kayaks, and (of course) “gone BANANAS!” T-shirts.

Cross the Plymouth line to explore the Family Kloset Costume Shop. Open for 25 years, it claims to offer more than 10,000 costumes and novelties. The second floor contains rental costumes complete with hats and wigs.

TEE TIME

A little farther south on the left side is Cordage Park in Plymouth, a set of old industrial buildings now home to various businesses. At the back of 10 Cordage Park Circle you’ll find On The Tee, which has three large video screens for playing simulated golf. Whack a real ball into a net, then watch your ball travel virtually onscreen. A screen costs $30 per hour, while a bucket of balls for the driving range is $5.

QUICK BITES

Hungry? Head back north and stop at the Kingston House of Pizza, where favorites include the buffalo chicken pizza, spinach ravioli with garlic bread ($5.75), and fresh salads ($5.25 to $6.90).

THE SKINNY

Main Street in Kingston turns into Court Street in Plymouth. There are some unusual diversions, shopping or otherwise, on both sides of the town line. From the north, take Exit 9 off Route 3, then turn left onto Main Street.

Time: 60 minutes

Cost: $14.73 for a military collector’s patch, a bucket of driving range balls, and spinach ravioli with garlic bread.
