WHAT IS A THRIFT STORE?

              What is a thrift store?
              That great place we go fishing
              For video games.
 
              Summer comes at last!
              The fetid stench of urine
              Wafts from the thrift store.
 
              Classic games for sale!
              Half off this Sunday only
              Down at the thrift store.
 
              I need a price check!
              Sorry. Come again Monday
              For this X-Man game.
 
              First thing Monday morn'...
              Combats all marked up tenfold.
              X-Man is nowhere.
 
              What reeks even more
              Than B.S. from a thrift store?
              Really bad haiku.
