As a former East Bay resident, i also love these guys as well:

-pretty penny in rockridge is fantastic
-jeremy's in elmwood for last seasons jcrew and anthropologie as well as various vintage high ends that need some sewing help
-rockridge's crossroads has never let me down
- the downtown oakland goodwill at 12th st. bart has quite a few gems if you look for them...

Thanks Lily!

My list is very incomplete and I need to work on it...

Thanks for the Oakland addresses! I've been wanting to explore the East Bay more... They have (amongst other things) a bunch of farmers markets that I want to check out.
Yes, I am planning on cheating on my neighborhood's farmers' market and go to one in Oakland (can't remember which one exactly) because I want a taste of that vegan soul food they sell at the Souley Vegan stand. Yum!
