I hit some of the same places except garage sales. Just look out for
private thrift and talk with the manager must are willing to work with if
you take it by the load and not try to pick out just the ones you want. I
can get real low prices by working it that way, must times they don't have
that much. I talk to people at the goodwills that I meet there and give them
one of my cards my wife made. These cards id me as a Computer Collector and
gives my home phone and e-mail address. These cards have gotten me alot of
free items. Well good luck and Keep Computing !!

(Delaware) I hit garage sales (pretty slim pickin's), swap meets, Salvation
Army and Goodwill. A local chemical company has a surplus disposition
center that parcels out a limited number of PC and Mac systems. In
addition, there's a twice-weekly Goodwill that has occasionally yielded
something useful.
