The back issue bin at a flea market in Tucson changed my whole pull list

Last month I hit a random flea market stall and the guy had three long boxes stuffed with 90s X-Men books. I wasn't expecting much, but he let me dig for an hour and I found a full run of Uncanny X-Men 290 to 310 for like 40 cents each. It made me realize I was spending way too much on new weekly floppies that I barely cared about, just to keep up with the internet chatter. Now I only grab titles I'm truly excited for and save my cash for those dollar bin hunts. Has anyone else switched from weekly buying to hunting older back issues at weird places?

Just bring a short box and check the bottom of every bin, that's where the real finds hide.
