Great place for lots of older media. Found some older video games at great prices, a movie for my kid and will return to pick up some CDs. Also they have the latest comic books. Fun place to look around and you might find a nostalgic item you wanted.

Well-organized, lots of cds for sale, a good selection and a few rare finds today. I look for cds that I buy, play into my computer library, and trade back for more cds - Cheap Thrills is a store I would frequent if I lived in the area...

I heard about this store from Best Buy when I was looking for some CD jewel cases. They have singles and doubles, got just what I needed. Had to get to an appt so couldn't browse the store but would go back.
