The Time I Went to the Record Store

So yesterday, trying to fool myself into thinking I had anything to do, I went to the record store about 20 minutes from my apartment to try to sell some records (and then buy some food with that money). I woke up, with a hankering for Whole Foods cookies which seemed like the perfect solution to my hungry/poverty needs. A whole case of delicious cookies for only $4, I was sure I could eat these cookies as lunch AND dinner and only spend $4. I'm nothing, if i'm not savvy.

So, I woke up bright and early (around 10:30) and checked the Reckless Records website to gauge their CD buying policy. They claim to have the best prices and take almost anything music related. Unfortunately for me, I left most of my 1,000 CD collection in storage in NC, but I did have about 5 cds I could sell here, and a ton of crappy music DVDs. I felt that this was at least worth $20 (or 5 packs of cookies.)

After making the journey down (and taking advantage of the shady side of the street) I plopped the discs on the counter. The lovely man then told me "I'd need to take those out of the bag," AS I was reaching my hand into the bag to take them out. Very courteous.

He told me to look around the store, because this would take a few minutes. Literally 30 seconds later he handed me back all of the DVDs, and told me he would get me $5 for the 5 CDS (3 of which were unopened and 1 of which I had bought BRAND NEW FROM THIS SAME STORE 4 days before). But $5 meant 1 pack of cookies, so I took the deal and ate like a king yesterday.
