Just a tiny sampling of vinyl at my 11th Goodwill (on this blog at least). Almost all Xmas music clearly put out recently for the occasion except for one very odd disco/rock record which I almost bought. (Something/somebody needs to keep Macho company).

Goodwill, Mundelien IL
This is the 10th Goodwill I am blogging about and it has been a wild adventure! No, that is not true. It has been filled with records without jackets, jackets without records, jackets separated into two easy pieces (sans vinyl) and a multitude of religious recordings aimed squarely at no record collector who has lived […]
Tri-County Thrift, Grayslake IL
Unfortunately nothing to see here but still glad I stopped!
Goodwill [Waseon OH]
Someone just unloaded about 30+ bad hip hop 12″ singles. At least they are all mint condition. Almost no ‘thrift store’ records to speak of. That is, except the bizarre polka album I found and subsequently added to discogs. This one will be in my dreams (or nightmares) for ages, probably should have grabbed it. […]
Return to The Brown Elephant
I have an excellent/bad habit of wasting the day away on Sundays. I usually don’t get out of bed (at least not enough to clothe myself or leave my domicile) until mid afternoon at best. However, once I do, I am often urged to cycle hard as I feel very much like a sloth. I […]
Grand Rapids appears to be the thrift store capitol of the world. After a tiny selection at the local Goodwill, the SA had a bulk of records available. I came away with a Ray Price record (they had another but it was pretty beat, so I passed). I found a double of the one I […]
Even as I tried to leave town, I was confronted still with more and more thrift stores. This spot offers the unique combination of used cars and thrift store. I found this single crate in the backroom with the books. Another customer sipped coffee loudly behind me, lurking over my shoulder. I shot her a […]
Pine Rest Thrift [Grand Rapids MI]
Grand Rapids is so jam packed with thrift stores its crazy. I found this one as I ate my shitty omelet at Russ Diner across the street and noticed this place through the window. Like many of the stores I checked out in the GR area, it was riddled with religious offerings. Still worthy of […]
Goodwill [Wyoming MI]
Smallest record selection ever! Only six records and all of them bizarre!
Savers, Carol Stream
Haven’t been round this way in a while and I don’t know if this Savers did not exist previously or if I just missed/ignored it. A bevy of finds lurked within. The Anne Murray you see above I just purchased this summer at a garage sale (I’d still love to have the Arc version) and […]
