First time I've been here, and like all other SA's there really isn't much going on unless you need clothes. I did manage to get this Cookie Monster record out of the filing cabinet full of lp's:


This porcelain Libra dish from West Germany:


As I was leaving I noticed this NES cleaning kit behind the counter. I'm so psyched for this, now I can clean my Nintendo a lot more efficiently:

Just got back from Rhode Island. Tom took me to Savers in Warick. I won't officially blog this with pictures since this is MASS thrift but I just wanted to say it was a good experience, a lot of unique items, even an accordion ( and if it was fully in tact I would have bought it). I did pick up a Hulk Hogan Bandanna ( orig. 1989 WWF), this awesome dinosaur pencil holder bag, and 2 records both German but the Bavarian souvenir one goes for about 20 dollars.

I'm officially going to the Norwood Savers ( Never been) and Salvation army next Monday instead of heading into town.

It always seems that when I have to make a fast stop I find something awesome. I had to go in there today to pick up a few of those Nintendo Power magazines for a friends collection and what catches my eye behind the boutique:


The Second World War
by Winston S. Churchill and the editors of Life. 1959 2-volume hardcover set with included slipcase. Books weigh about 8 lbs a piece and the set fetches anywhere from 50-75 dollars. Good find!

Menacer light-gun for Sega Genesis. Doesn't have the infrared receiver though:


A lovely little book entitled Dirtier Little Limericks:


I can't resist sharing one of these:
There was a young girl of Samoa
Who plugged up her cunt with a boa.
This strange contraceptive
Was very deceptive
To all but the spermatoza.

I always make sure to look in the kids book section because you never know what you'll find there.

Why do you like to wear girls things?

Terrible terrible hangover but still soldiered on.

A hurried trip today, overslept by about two hours after a night of being a complete mess. My original plans were to get stuff for my Super Bowl party then hit up the thrift store. Instead I had to go to the goodwill first then run around like an idiot to get things ready for the party...SUCKS!

anyways...

Nice heavy pint glass of the 1999 All-Star game at Fenway:


It's funny how I'm finding all these albums from my adolescence. Foo Fighters first album, only one worth owning in my opinion:


Someone got rid of a ton of MHQ Military Journal Quarterly's. I picked out the ones that were predominantly WWI and WWII related:
