$.50 CDs
Cheapo discs?
There was a strung out guy outside the Whole Foods selling compilation CDs from 1997 for fifty cents a piece, which he'd clearly nicked from a garbage bin outside of a label or publication. We bought them mainly because the crazy look in his eyes said that he might kill us in our sleep if we didn't.
There is (was?) a great place called Cheapo discs that dealt in scratched CDs. They had more copies of R.E.M.'s Monster than I think were originally printed.
