I have this one thrift in town, that I used to frequent alot, and used to get good things at (Samba maraccas MIB for 9.99, Collection of TG16 Games 2.99 each, etc) but over the years it's broke down into something terrible. I go there less and less. I hadn't been there in a few months, so I decided to go today. And it's honestly gotten so bad, I may never go back.
Unless of course you want any of the following:
-PS2 3rd party wireless controllers with no receivers 9.99 each
-xbox sports games 9.99 each
-ps2 network adapter start up disks (2 available!) 5.99 each
-PS2 Punisher demo disk 5.99
-bag of about 1 pound of random mega blocks 39.99
Now they've even started putting guides in baggies and selling them for 5.99 each.
My days of finding deals there has ended officially, I'm afraid.

So, in my discouragement, I hit up a Microplay on the way home. They're marking down their xbox stuff, and also have a buy 2 get 1 free deal, so I took the opportunity to fill in some gaps in the ole xbox shelf.

More than I'm used to paying for older games,
but I hadn't heard of it, and the label art sold me.
Looks fun
