I went last Sat. to one nearby and found 17 Civil War Blocks, unsewn, each in their package, but all in a larger plastic bag - all for $3. Matching gold print for borders was $2. I hit 2 other ones and usually find fabric or small quilts. One I hit in the Lancaster, Pa. area always has fabric and I hit that one last month, got enough to make 2 Civil War quilts in the blues and browns. Then hit a Quilt store in the area and they had the Bonnie Blues and Windham for $2.59 a yard and spent another $75. Now I am going to the AQS quilt show in Lancaster and probably will not find any fabric that I like as well. I do a Show and Tell with my Goodwill and thrift store finds at our local quilt club. It really pays to go and I enjoy it a lot.
