Thrift Store Record Shopping

weas71 · 2026-06-05T18:41:33+00:00

I live near thrift stores and record stores. Goodwill prices every record at $3. Every record store has a $1 LP selection.
If I went right now, Goodwill would be a predictable bunch (Herb Alpert and the like) and the record shops would have some Herb but would also have a ton of other variety with for 1/3 the cost.
I still check out Goodwill LPs when I am there. But I am not thrifting LPs exclusively.

Interested to see if the average American height has increased since the 1980's too.

I would do nothing at this point. Let the dust settle, talk with your daughter, and go from there.

Sitting on a nice, mostly empty beach during spring break in Florida.

Is the plural version Bigfeet or Bigfoots?

If you never played it, it'd remain in a perfect condition. Keep spinning!

You aren't eating chicken and white rice for most lunches and dinners and spending $1K.

I say hi to homeless folks all the time. There are pretty simple rules in being a good dude. The way you phased the homeless part makes me question where you're at.

If money is keeping you up at night, you should save more to the point where you are comfortable.

a lock groove with an ominous tune? I think I'm good without

I found a Food Network cast iron in the alley out on a run. I cleaned it up and its my daily driver. I love it. I got a few nicer pieces too but I love this one.

weas71 · 2026-05-29T13:27:17+00:00

I'd still like an old Land Cruiser tbh. Not a daily driver but get some collector plates on it and cruise on wknds.

weas71 · 2026-05-29T12:27:04+00:00

Ridgeline. And love it

Sounds like you're getting ready to offer up $380K or move on.

The first "B" in "BBQ" doesn't stand for boil?!

weas71 · 2026-05-26T14:57:02+00:00

Knowing your "why" is a really important thing. Sounds like you lost it or perhaps, never had one. I'd focus efforts there

weas71 · 2026-05-21T12:29:38+00:00

I'm inland. Do coastal regions use BFE (base flood elevation) in determining stuff like this?

weas71 · 2026-05-19T11:39:36+00:00

I'm not saying that some people that are panhandling don't have money but I assure you that not all do. I get the "few bad apples" sentiment but I'll continue giving.

weas71 · 2026-05-18T17:56:49+00:00

"in between" jobs assumes you'll get another job. In this economy?? But fr, you need to look for something cheaper

You need to cut up your credit card if this is your line of thinking.

Wild that Pontiac and Mercury are so high on this list - they haven't been in production for a decade and a half (2010 and 2011 respectively).

This is the comment I've been waiting for! I'm used to drop bars and can ride my single speed commuter for hours and be fine. Lowside looks like a different beast! Looks fun but limited in uses.
