I'm excited, this year I've already found something and I've only been out last Friday and Saturday.
Friday was a bust, there was a church group fundraiser rummage sale that had a ton of VHS tapes, crappy clothes, and romance novels but nothing game related. I was so bummed I almost didn't go out Saturday but I did anyway because there was a large community yard sale in one of the communities where the people are super loaded but for some reason take the time to make a few dollars cleaning out their storage buildings and garages. One such family sold me a ps2, four controllers, a multi tap, and 30 games (all with cases, many with books) for $25. Nothing was rare and there really wasn't anything I really wanted to play but I'll buy almost anything game related for less than a dollar each. The ps2 had a disk read error but that's really easy to fix and everything was as clean as I've ever seen. There wasn't even the normal dust in the creases and exhaust vents.
Goodwill even paid off the week before. Wii balance boards were marked 4 dollars each and I found two APC UPSs for $5.00 each. The UPSs both had bad batteries ($18 on amazon) but each UPS new would cost me well over $100.
