Goodwill [Plainfield IN]

I have been through this store and this area too many times to count at this point – I just created a new label to keep track of all these trips so you know it is getting serious!.  I pulled some scores out of here over the years and even when I strike out I […]

Goodwill [Greenfield IN]

Nice to get back in the swing of things after a short while of inactivity.  I drove 4 1/2 hours to Cambridge City Indiana, did my work in only about 2 hours, then drove back west to spend the night in Indianapolis.  This was on the way and well worth it. Roger Miller ‎ I scooped […]

Rock Bottom Treasures [Plainfield IN]

I’ve been to the Plainfield/Avon area a bunch of times now but somehow never bothered to check the area for record stores.  Obviously I underestimated the area because I found Rock Bottom Treasures on a cursory glance at the map! I had my work planned for a Sunday which gave me a very leisurely drive […]

Krazed in Kokomo

I’ve been awfully spoiled lately with the opportunity to travel to many large metropolitan areas.  Finally I was make in a small town in Indiana – now this feels natural! I swung through a Goodwill in town – plenty of vinyl to be had.  It was nothing doing, but I did find a mono copy […]

D’yer Maker

My history with the Dyer Goodwill runs deep.  Back before it was even fully constructed and I invited myself inside through the many polka records I have pulled out of here, and even some weird rarities I just went ahead and sold for profit.  Haven’t been through since early spring so I enjoyed my trip […]

Goodwill [Plainfield IN]

I’ve had a bad habit of neglecting the Plainfield Goodwill while I have showered the Avon Goodwill with attention during my numerous visits over the past couple years.  It wasn’t intentional – the Avon store is right next to my hotel and I honestly forgot there was another one just a couple miles away.  I’d […]

Goodwill [Avon IN]

I’ve spent quite a bit of time in the Avon/Plainfield area.  I worked on a job site in Avon twice about 12-18 months ago, now I have worked twice at a totally different job site which is about 1 mile away, but across the border in the adjoining town of Plainfield.  All of these times […]

St. John’s Lutheran Thrift Shop [La Porte IN]

La Porte is kind of a grimy old town, new customer I never visited before and while I’ve been all over Indiana (and NW Indiana specifically), never been here before.  My work was pretty pleasant, there is nothing better then hitting the road for a day trip on a Friday, it’s like ending your week […]

Dyer again

So let’s recap my numerous (this would be #4) visits to the Goodwill in Dyer Indiana, which has not yet been open a year.  In a short time I’ve been blessed to have been able to stop by so many times, and more specifically to have been able to get so many scores in that […]

World Record Shoppe [Indianapolis IN]

You get the feeling they’ve been ‘remodeling’ for a long, long time.  And there is no ‘sale’ anywhere beyond that door that I saw. Found myself in Avon again – couldn’t wait to get free from my work and head back to that Goodwill I had so much luck at.  Of course, there was nothing […]
