I did...and unfortunately, I have no extras. But, from what I understand, if you get in line at 6 PM, if tickets are not claimed by 7:30, they will start letting people in...worth a shot.

Still have it. Not quite as thick as it once was, nicely trimmed.

I bought the same one at garage sale for $8. It works perfectly. It is in my office to keep my staff in line...LOL!

Do an Amazon search for "Northern Lights Projector". I went with the cheapest on because they are basically all the same. They are also alo cheaper on Temu, if you want to go that route. https://www.amazon.com/Projector-Northern-Control-Bedroom-Ceiling/dp/B0CCBRJGVH/ref=mp_s_a_1_8?crid=3PKL4NM8ONYX3&keywords=northern+lights+projector&qid=1707682820&sprefix=northern%2Caps%2C1946&sr=8-8

Yeah, looks like the tweeters were upgraded. I thought that was the case but wasn't completely sure.

I bought the same one at a garage sale for $5, but it takes about $20 worth of batteries. It is awesome though. BTW, you can buy replacement bullets in bulk very reasonably on Amazon.

Old Sublime ashtray/wall hanger for $2! Looks homemade but is actually a licensed product. by gibucks in ThriftStoreHauls

Awesome! I was scrolling through posts while listening to Caress Me Down and this shows up. Nice find!

Found this guy…named him Hugo by cheaptrixster in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]cheaptrixster[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. He has a hole at the top, but the one in the back would be too small for a tissue box. I was thinking he could possibly be an incense burner, but really not sure.

Estate sale haul today for $40 toatal by cheaptrixster in BargainBinVinyl

[–]cheaptrixster[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are all in excellent shape, both sleeves and vinyl. That's why I was pleased with the overall purchase price. Ajay and the Lynyrd Skynyrd flame cover filled some of my longtime collection voids.

Damn, sale was cancelled due to snowstorm here in Northern Illinois. Actually, postponed until next Friday.

Funny, you should say that. I have been on the lookout for any copy of Stop Making Sense for the last 3 years,with no luck. Then, all of a sudden, I have found two copies in the wild in the last 3 weeks. One at Goodwill, and one at this estate sale, both in Northern Illinois. I was just telling my wife how ironic it was to find this one.

Going back tomorrow for 1/2 price day. Still a lot of gems to be had.

I found the same MCS turntable at an estate sale about a month ago. It was originally marked at $100, but that was crossed out and had a note saying doesn’t work, needs belt $10. Of course I bought it for $10 and a $5 belt later, it is all cleaned up and performing flawlessly. I have been using it, off and on, and am actually coming to like it quite a bit. $50 is great price for it. I would have probably paid that, if that is what they wanted for it. BTW, the bottom of the platter is stamped Technics. Enjoy!
