“A bit out of the way, but worth the trip for anyone who likes to thrift shop. It is well organized and the volunteers are especially friendly. Prices are fair if you are buying for yourself, no real steals if you are buying and reselling for profit. Nice selection of dishes and clothes and an occasional vintage find.”

“Went to this super awesome little shop a few days ago it’s so cool in there and has some good finds! Very nice and helpful owner! Gave me directions to another store with more items I was in search for!”

“I absolutely LOVE Thrifty Hippie. My son and I have been going here for years. He checks out the records while I check out everything else. Great selection of clothing. I always find things here that I have never seen anywhere else. The owner is awesome, always friendly. I was so upset when I saw they were moving years ago but it turned out it was just next store. Breathed a sigh of relief and thanked the thrift store gods that I could continue shopping at Thrifty Hippie to make my home, and self, look awesome with my one of a kind finds.”

“Alphabet Soup Thrift Shop is a non profit thrift store owned by Petaluma Education Foundation. This is the second store this organization was able to open. Their first location is a couple stores down on the same block. This is one is Alphabet Soup at Home. They specialize in more home goods and houseware like furniture and books. It was actually their original location before they opened up a second thrift store dedicated to just clothes and accessories.Other than the nice employees that work there the funds made at these businesses go to the foundation as it has been serving 13,000 students every year which include scholarships. You can also volunteer for these thrift stores and work as a cashier or merchandiser!At the clothes store in particular I had come in with a friend on a Saturday afternoon and enjoyed the layout. It wasn’t too crowded and all the sections were obvious which made it easy to navigate. They put paper signs and printed bold letters on the front of each rack to describe the section of clothing. They also have a very nice designated children’s section with toys, books and clothes. They had a very nice shoe selection, but expensive for a thrift store. The crowd of people that were in here the most were women and a lot of youths and young adults.This shop is located on Western Avenue in Petaluma right next to the Petaluma Market and St. Vincent De Paul Church. There is street parking. They accept cash and card as well as contactless payment. They are open seven days a week 10am-5pm.To the beautiful people of Sonoma county and visitors abroad, I didn’t have a bad experience here. It was a clean store with nice clothes. It was a little more on the expensive side for a thrift store, but they have great items and sometimes vintage treasures.”

“I really like this store. It's large and well organized. The staff especially the longer term employees and the managers are friendly and very fair. Always enjoy searching for unique items here.”
