Goodwill for All Men
4knuckleshuffle \| 10:48 PM on 09.29.2008	6 comments

Actually, the find was at the Salvation Army Thrift Store, but that doesn't sound as good.

Anyway, I found a PS1 with four controllers, two of which were wireless, all required cords and in perfect working condition, for $10. This is kind of awesome, given that I actually had money on me at the time, and hadn't wasted it all on edible diabetes (slurpees and skittles). So as of now I have a PS1 and no memory card, but am buying one off of a friend in the near future.

This is awesome. That's all I can say. Now, I just need to go there every day until I find a SuperGrafx for $5.

I have a goodwill near me in a rich neighborhood, it is a haven for cheap gaming.

I got a Sega Genesis with 2 controllers, Sonic 1 and 2, Ecco the Dolphin, and 10 sports games for 20 bucks.

Awesome thrift store haul + love for Skittles and Slurpees? Are you some sort of Dyson/Topher love child?
