I found all five of Billy Blanks' Boot Camp Elite at Goodwill today for $10 (total) - two were even unopened. But no band... so how useful would be they be? Should I go back? It doesn't get the greatest reviews, but maybe someone here wants them?

I treasure my copy- less than 20 minutes, the ultimate pilates floor work, always in my weekly rotation.
It looks like most people are trying to get rid of Mari's stuff, but that's ok, like I said I want to get the Buns one for myself.

I never find anything at Goodwill but old Reader's Digest Condensed Books, broken Naugahyde chairs and SAS shoes from the 70s.
LOL

After not finding anything good for several weeks now, I checked two Goodwill stores today and found 10MS Rapid Results Pilates for $.99 and P57 Express for $2.99!!

Oh, and it's not at all fitness related (well, except the fact that losing 63lbs now enables me to fit into it), but I also found a Philosophy di Alberta Ferretti dress for $10. TEN DOLLARS! I nearly had a heart attack in the middle of the store. That's by far my biggest score ever.

SHUT UP! Now I'm envious. That's a good find.

Way to go on the dress, too. I just checked retail prices on those . No wonder you nearly had a heart attack. LOL

I went back and got Bun & Thigh Sculpting.

Yeesh, those are both excellent finds! I think I'll need to check in with my thrift stores more often...

Good, I'm glad you got it. I recently (as in last night) parted with my Windor collection but I held on to Bun and Thigh Sculpting because it's a great workout - not that the others aren't but you know what I mean.

I get so jealous when I read things like this. My Goodwills never have any good workouts. The last "find" I got was Claudia Schiffer's Perfectly Fit Legs on VHS for $1. Otherwise, zip, nada, zilch of anything that has vidiot value.

Any interest around here for these, do you think? I might pop back into Goodwill today on my way home from work...

I find lots at my goodwill. My little baby girl gets BORED easily and needs to get out of the house alot (ok... me too) and the goodwill is three minutes away, so we check like three times a week. My husband calls it my "trading up" system with all the things I've found. I found all three Fluidity dvds once, belly dancing dvds, tons of great pilates dvds. I then turn around and trade them for awesome things I actually want. It's pretty steller :-)

My best score ever in a thrift store was a brand new Roxy winter coat for $4! It was on sale from $8.

They're coats sell for well over $200. I freaked out and held onto that coat for dear life. I was afraid to put it down cause I didn't want anyone else to grab it.
