So right down the road from me a new store called 2nd & Charles opened up just a few weeks ago. Right outside their door, there is a "free" bin where they periodically dump books, games, and more throughout the day.

Over the past few weeks I have acquired quite a few games from this free bin. Here is this week's haul:

the used game stores around here like to (try to) charge like $40 for old used PS3 games with no original box, lol

did you really find those games on a "free" bin!?!
if this bin existis in brazil, those future free items will never go to the bin...
the donors may get robbed or stabbed way before get to the bin.

you got awesome games there! I'm jealous as much as my PS3 right now! lucky you! :D

Nice haul! Kind of reminds me of the bin in Animal Crossing - You could always find neat stuff in it! ^_^

Definitely an interesting business model, especially viewed through the prism of modern consumer, who likes their entertainment to be in 0 and 1.

I wonder what's stopping them from putting them up on ebay.
Seems like it would be the more profitable solution anyway.

Jeez... even though I'm progressing over to PC, I'd still love to live near that store!

Those are some pretty good ones, too. God of War Saga, Ratchet and Clank Collection, Bioshock Infinite... Congratulations, OP.

WOW! That's great!!! I wish I had a store like that nearby ^_^
Good luck and keep finding good games / books!
Oh, and thank you for the giveaway (even though I already got the game, it's a great title!)

Hopefully you're spending some money in there as well, the store won't survive on giving away freebies... They also need paying customers.

Wish we had something like that around here, stores are more likely to destroy overstocks and trash them.

I see there's one in my state but several hours drive away... looks like they set up in college towns frequently.
