Great prices and Large Quantity by Randy G. at InsiderPages
The Amvets Thrift Store has been a favorite of mine for the past several years; you will find great prices and daily instore special prices on different items.
General Merchandise includes: A wide selection of clothing for all genders and ages, household nick-knacks, toys, a wide selection of books and records, CD's & tapes including some computer softwares, an electronics area that often has older but usable computers, monitors, keyboards, car stereos, lamps, etc.
I once purchased a Macintosh 8600 PowerPC computer for $15.00 which included a processor update card which had a used retail value of $100.00. I later saw the same computer with out the processor update card at the Goodwill Computer store in Santa Ana being sold for $120.00.
If you know what your looking for and what the value of the item is, you can often find some really great deals here.
Some of the used items are not as nice as you might find at some of the Salvation Army stores (who sell their used items at close to retail prices), but you should check them out any way.
PROS: Great prices, large selection, Lots of treasures
CONS: Some of the items are lower quality
