Good luck!!  :biggrin:  Bring gloves, be careful when you're digging!

 :P Haha no kidding!  I only went through the bins once and had no luck, but there are definitely a lot of great possibilities for good finds there. :)

Definitely! I found my Mimic there and tons of other ponies, I found some old polaroid film I sold for $150, etc. The real key is patience, being will to dig for hours and hours and for days find nothing. It's persistence that counts. But man it gets tiring!! And I always get all cut up since I hate wearing gloves. Definite downsides there XD

Yeah of course! And LOL I wish, I'd never leave XD

The outlets sell stuff by the pound, everything is simply dumped in bins that customers have to sift through. It's loosely sorted into clothes and not clothes, and that's about it. Here's a picture of the one I go to.

They change out the rows roughly every 20 min or so, so it's a never ending stream of stuff @_@

 :shocked: Oh, wow.... just wow. That is amazing! I think there are more toys in that picture than my goodwill has ever had! LOL
Congrats and what a great store you have there!

(I kinda just want to swim through the bin of toys like a pool  :biggrin:)

D'oh! Oh my, I did not think about the gunk and grime! I'd wear a hazmat suit and then dive in  :D
It would be better if it was all ponies LOL
