I wanted a particular CD and they searched all over the country for it, without success. However, I…read morediscovered they have regular vinyl & CD shows every couple of months where there are thousands of mostly used selections of good recordings available at good prices. I have found many out-of-print and classic recordings there at the many different booths. The different vendors at these shows even offer some discounts occasionally. The shows are two or three months apart. Sign up for email notice of when they occur. In their Randolph store they stock thousands of records and CDs and you can browse for hours, if you want to--no pressure. For any oldies lover, this is the place to go. They have movies, too.

Much smaller now, BUT much more organized and easy to find stuff. I have been on the hunt for sonny angel hippers and was elated to find them here yesterday! They are behind the counter at check out for $20/each, limit 4 per person. I originally decided to just buy two and we opened the blind boxes in the car. I was hoping to get a pink one, however, unfortunately did not hit. Now, it is 6 min before closing and we figured, what the heck? Why not go back to get two more hahaha. So, we rushed back into the mall (special thanks to the workers for letting us pick up two more, last min before close!) and bought two more. Anyways, I ended up getting one pink one and a blue mouse this time around! Total for 4 was ~$84. I love what I ended up getting though! Definitely a sucker for blind boxes from time to time, but it's so fun ;)

Not only is the coffee delicious, but it's so reasonably priced, which is such a rarity these days. They also have a microcinema where they hold screening events. Super happy to have a spot like this in the neighborhood!

The young people help run the store, learn job skills, and work toward personal and career goals--and it truly shows in the care and pride behind the space. The shop itself is small but mighty. I walked out with four excellent-condition used books (three of which had already been on my TBR list) and somehow also added two cookbooks because... no regrets. Everything was very affordable, and it felt good knowing my purchase was directly supporting youth in the local community. If you're near one of their locations (I believe there's another in the Boston area), I highly recommend stopping in or checking out their online storefront. Great books, great prices, and an even greater mission--absolutely worth supporting.
