Anywhere that supports images, just send me a link or email

Matt Murphy

Where can I send you a photo of my grabs? Got a few DVD/Blu-rays from an end of lease sale from my once local video store recently.

LGR

My watch had the wrong date on it. That was it, haha.

Jeff D Smallman

Ahh the Y2K bug. That reminds me of when literally nothing happened. I remember being disappointed. Especially after all that media frenzy.

Jess the Stampede

Aw, I'm rather sad that Bratz: Rock Angelz game didn't have a disk inside. Would've been fun to see another LP with Roses while playing a broken game for 'teh gurlz'.

Alyxx the Rat

So much interesting stuff this time! Would kill for some of it! I love how these episodes inspires me to go thrifting myself.

Steven Joseph Campbell

So I'm not the only one who has that song in his head when I see that brand.

LGR

Same, I really dislike using them. But having an external one for a desktop is quite neat somehow, in a useless kinda way

LGR

Was very tempting, since as I said, I was familiar with several of the other Animated Storybooks as a youngster! But yeah, if I go there again and it's still there it'll be tempting

Headset Guy

Aw man! Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree Animated Storybook in the box? Man... Now I wish I lived in North Carolina. You may not have grown up with those, but I did. Also, I remember when we bought that particular game. We got it at Best Buy.

Allie

Goo Gone is your friend :)

Seeing my Atari XE on viewers finds made me as excited as a teenage girl back in 2000 going to an NSYNC concert. Thanks for another LGR Thrifts EP. these always make my day to see new one in my feed, especially this one. :)

Kevin Furr

I had one of those early Circque track-pads, or a competitor of the same era. I thought it would be the super cool thing of the future .... but I hated it. Never have liked track pads, to this day I use a mouse with a notebook.

Kris Asick

Aww, not really much I could identify with from my childhood this time around. Ah well, maybe next time. ;)

Jesse Marcon

I wouldn't have been able to resist that $3 Mario 64 but I would've just sold or traded it.

Ezydenias

"Nuthing is better than thrifting! Oh thrifting is, better than anything you could ever do." Believe me that will be the next big Hit!.

Marksider89

Oh god no! Q*Bert! Kill it with FIRE!!!

LGR

I always clean them. And there aren't really any secrets, it's just using some elbow grease with normal cleaning products :)

Patrick Strater

Nice EP -- Out of Curiosity... do you clean your finds? -- and have you ever thought of doing a HOW to video on your ways of removing stickers and gunk and what not - any secrets? -

LGR

Oh hey, awesome! Good to know some of the software that utilized it, am gonna be trying to track some down.

Oh man, Spaceball... I work in engineering, and the last place I worked at had one of those in their dedicated Model Review room, the review package (Intergraph Design Review, now called SmartPlant Review) had explicit support for those puppies, and damn it was cool to just muck around with.
