Clothing, shoes, dance shoes, swimsuits, dress up clothes, toys, new melissa and doug toys and activities, books, etc. I was tempted to buy so many things!

I think the prices are a little high for used clothing but they seem to be focused on offering quality products. We did end up with a $20 princess dress that our 4 year old really wanted (for her upcoming birthday:). They also have a new toy and gift section and a little play area for the little ones.

Heritage Goods & Supply is in the coastal Southern California town of Carpinteria. The shop is…read morelocated next to the largest Torrey Point tree in the world. I was there to check out the tree. Oh that tree is glorious, over 225 feet with a truck of neatly 21 inch circumference. Anyways back to the shop. It's in a red painted building in front of Lucky Llama coffee. Heritage sells sustainable, eco friendly items in a curated country store. The merchandise range from baby clothes, toys, art, kitchenware, stationary, vegetable and flower seeds, dishes, drink ware, etc. Think modern and hip. The items are practical and beyond the mundane same old. The price points are at boutique pricing but not so outrageously priced. The items that caught my eye were art prints from Hello Coyote, and Little Salt Wagon. May I add, pieces were affordable ranging from small prints, greeting cards, to larger sizes. Little Salt Wagon is art from local Ventura County artist Amanda Cox. Simple, but beautiful watercolors inspired by the rural Ventura County surroundings.

They also have slightly used clothing which I loved--way to recycle and reuse well made clothing. Definitely stop by for a gift for yourself or someone you love. Prices were reasonable with some high priced items (Patagonia, Blundstone, Levi's, etc.)

After putting old parts on multiple times and charging every time, nearly $200 later, they claimed it was not their responsibility. The problem lied with the rider and the previous owners. We were told to go elsewhere.

An older woman who was not the owner was working and was rude and curt to everyone in my party including my husband who was more than happy to drop alot of money in there for me. I am older and she followed me around like I was a shoplifter. She accused one of the gals I was with of changing a price tag, then got made at me because I put my purchases on the counter to check out. I seriously would have left but was so embarrassed I did not want to ruin the day and the gals I were with were blown away at her rudeness. She also turned to my husband and son as he was shopping with me and said "there is a book store across the street!" as if she did not want them in the store. I ended up buying all my over priced purchases anyhow and left. I seriously almost put everything back and walked out but like I said did not want to ruin the day. Avoid this place at all cost. It is over priced for second hand clothing even in Carpenteria. Go to American Cancer Discovery stores or Assistance League stores instead where you are treated with respect. Why the owner allows such a rude lady to work for her is beyond my understanding. I should have listened to the other reviews that said the same things.

Island Outfitters is a beachy themed adult/seniors store, I would say, that carries mostly brand name clothing made with high quality materials and very high pricing. They do have a section I enjoy browsing at the front that include seashell style gifts and home decor. During the holidays they have beautiful, unique ornaments as well, but again way out of my price range. There is a funny little fur ball dog that greets you each time you walk in. It's very friendly and well trained, just wants to say hi! They also usually have packets of California poppy seeds at the front in an orange paper wrapped back for you to take, no charge. I love the concept of keeping California traditions alive like that. The staff here are welcoming and very focused on their jobs. They may not make a huge effort for customer service but if you go up and ask questions they're glad to help. Parking can be found on Linden Ave, side streets, or the lot behind Crushcakes. I will continue to come back to see what new ideas that have brought into the store, but quite honestly unless there is a massive 70% off bargain sale I don't see myself seriously shopping/purchasing here.
