About the Store

Good Vibes is a gift shop and metaphysical store. Good Vibes' selection of gifts offers special and meaningful sentiments, prices that are low & competitive without paying the high markups of boutiques, and are unique & fun. You will find a treasure to love or discover a little gem to make some one else smile – and even better, it will be gentle on your budget. 

Good Vibes is also known for its metaphysical products such as sage, crystals, salts, incense, and more. Metaphysical is a term which represents, “that which is the things of Nature and the Universe; an understanding of that which is beyond material reality; a posited idea of reality that exists outside of human sense perception.” This includes, but is not limited to, topics of time, space, consciousness, spirit, energy, creation, and dimensions. The store is an inviting and welcoming sanctuary for Lightworkers, Wanderers and Star Seeds, Indigos, and Empaths.  At Good Vibes, you will come in as a stranger but always leave as a friend.  

Positively the right choice, Give the Gift of Good Vibes

Good Vibes Gifts & Flowers was established back in 2019, originally located in Southington for just over a year before moving to downtown Plainville. The vision of Good Vibes is to provide a positive “feel-good” shopping experience, bring inspiring energy to the community, offer unique affordable products that our customers can be excited about, as well as contribute some lighter, happier, uplifting feelings to the day. The store offers gifts and sentiments that can brighten up the mood. Good Vibes is always an inviting place that emphasizes kindness and welcomes everyone!
