I had a pretty good week myself. Theres a thrift store just 2 buildings down from where I work called Value Village that I stop at daily and from Monday to Saturday I found something good every day.
My findings were:
- Genesis Model 2 CIB with Sonic 1 & 2 and Thunder Force 2 CIB.
- 32X with Doom, Moto Cross, Star Wars Arcade, Virtua Fighter, and Virtua Racing Deluxe CIB
- Coleco Vision + Atari Expansion + Super Challenge Controller Set with Donkey Kong, Mouse Trap, Space Fury, and Super Challenge Baseball
- 2 PS2 Guncon 2 controllers
- GBA SP
- Sonic 2 Tiger Electronic Game
All for roughly $50! Best week Ive had at Value Village so far!
Arseen:
How could I put this?
Green with envy is probably a close proximation to feeling at the moment. ;)

I haven't had any luck at the Goodwill near me. All that's there game-wise are broken Rock Band controllers and PS2-era sports games. I've only managed to grab 2 Mario/Duck Hunt and Baseball NES carts there one time, but that's the best luck I've had. I pass by it on my way home from about every place I go since almost all my friends live north of me.

Goodwill for me is totally random, some times I hit a jackpot and some times its just a dud.
Most of the time I just find Xbox, N64 and PSOne games. But some times a few gems from the other eras pop up.
The biggest things I've found have been:
Bangai-O (DC), Marvel Vs. Capcom 1 & 2 (DC), Mario's Time Machine (NES) cart Only thou, and Assassin's Creed Limited Edition (360) which I have kept for my collection, I've also found 3 original black boarder copies of Final Fantasy VII(PS) and mint copies of Brigandine(PS) and Kartia(PS) which I turned around and put up on eBay. :)
