I like Tuesday Morning because you literally never know what you're going to find. It's a bit of an effort, though, since very few toys are orderly placed on the shelves and you literally have to dig through piles of boxes to get to the bottom of the shelf.
It's worth it sometimes though. Last night I found The Rock, Mr. Perfect and British Bulldog. Here's the kicker: they were only 8 bucks!
Now I want to go find more TMs and see what they have!

Oh wow, nice! I remember there being Jakks figures at the last TM I went to, but it was when I wasn't collecting, so I didn't look at the price or who they had, I just saw the packaging. I wonder if there is one near me in Macon... hm...

we have one store by me, but I hate it. I went in there twice over the last 5 years and both times the store reeked as if there were dead animals around

I've always had great luck at TMs over the years. Never with WWE though. I've always scored some nice GI Joe/DC Classics stuff there. L3 Rock is the only one I need. I can only hope this is ,finally,my chance to get him at good (actually great) price. Thanks for the heads up.

I've gotten the 2004 SDCC Batman from there and then some other Batman stuff a few years later, but like Isaid above the store reeked both times and I won't go back there again.

Got there, place smelled fine lol Toy area was trashed for the most part. They had Jeff Hardy tough talkers and Entrance Great Undertaker. Not sure how much the tough talkers were, but the EG Taker was $9.99 is that good? I then walked down the aisle, and low and behold there were THREE Legends figures, all marked $7.99. One was the British Bulldog. The two I bought were Mr. Perfect and... THE ROCK! I don't normally buy Legends, but I had to get these. I really wanted the belt that came with Mr. Perfect, and Rocky is apparently hard to find ^_^

I didn't look at them, they were black and had a green design, I assumed they were his. I'm not familiar with most Mattel lines outside of Elites (for the most part) EDIT: Just googled, they are Rey Mysterio ones. I just saw the green on black design and assumed Hardy (he wore a lot of green and black, which I never associated with Mysterio)

what's a Tuesday Morning? It's what comes after Monday night. It's a regional store. You can google their website. It's not technically a thrift store, but they sell the stuff that other stores couldn't, so everything is discounted.

I stopped at the Tuesday morning in the Hazel Dell district on Vancouver, WA and got the only Rock they had there... I was hoping for more of Series 3, but they just had two Bulldogs (which I already have one of). Just happy to get an S3 Rock for $8!!

I also actually found a WWE Cyclone Pen from 1999 there. Was so suprised.
