Bought a wool, hooded cable knit sweater at fair in Alaska in 2000. Has traveled all over the world with me during husband's USAF tours.Held many babies, seen Northern lights, rode a gondola in Venice, did Active Duty with it as Essential Health Field Personnel for State/County Emergency during hurricane Ivan, and cleaned horse stalls in SD, while my trainer dad recovered from a massive heart attack.Old grey also sat outside ICU every night sleeping wherever, to get all the updates. I've shared "old grey" with my aunt for 23 years on visits and refused to give it up. Now I find myself in Eugene, OR with family in school and Aunt on the way. We've decided to drive to SD, BUT....make a detour North. To Woolies- to find another magical sweater! I can't Believe my luck. You're like a lifetime of memories for me and worth the 10 extra hours.I love my old sweater~Quinn 💕

Super Friendly Staff and awesome discounts

During my first time there I left with a new fall jacket. I have gotten a lot of great compliments on the jacket. I have become a shopper for life.

Found a wonderful garment at Value Village in Anchorage. Wore it and loved it and then the dam squirrels ate it when they got in the cabin. The label said Woolies Bellingham Wa. 1975. So googled it and found this site. Womens clothing my ass. Best wool hooded button up I have ever owned. Where can I buy this kind of stuff? Proud cross dressing squirrel killer.

STILL OPEN!! Friendly owner and very good prices. For some reason google occasionally says they are permanently closed, but that has never been the case. Check their FB page for hours.

Great place, bought some warm mittens. Sad, it will be closing soon. Check it out, you'll find something you love.

Great clothing.

Love this place!

Best hippie clothes in town!

Arrogant owner. Good prices because merchandise is cheaply made. Insisted that my Colombian alpaca poncho (called a ruana in Colombia, which he argued) that I purchased in Colombia was made in Ecuador, which it wasn't. Very insulting to contradict potential customers. Will not be returning.
