Mommy’s Trading Post

Woohoo 600^th review for 2015! Came to alameda to visit my bro in law at Prestg which is a shoe head boutique and barbershop. One door down is a mommy/​baby consignment store. Finally had the chance to check this place out because every time we come visit my bro in law, the place was closed but looks like this is a whole new store with new owner. We were greeted by Ashley who is the store owner and also met her 6 MO daughter. My daughter and her daughter hit it off really well. Great place to find good deals on baby, toddler and maternity clothes, baby carriers, medela pumping parts and bottles, infant/​toddler toys etc. Also noticed a rack for baby winter gear. I ended up buying a cute red pea coat for my 10 month old daughter for $ 10. Fits her perfectly! Ashley was super helpful and great to chat with. Definitely coming back here for a visit if I’m ever back in alameda.

This is the new store that opened in the same location as the old Fashion After Passion store. It is located on Lincoln between Sherman St. and Bay St. The new owner was attentive, very kind and helpful. I was able to find two pairs of shoes for my boys. One pair was adorable boots which will be worn on Thanksgiving and likely Christmas and the other was a great pair of leather sandles (only $ 4.50) and both were like new condition. The store is light and modern with many great deals. However, the best treasure was the owner, I believe her name is Ashley. I am happy to support this new, mommy owned store. I wish her all the best in her new endeavor.
