I lied, I’m going to add in cds this year so my total is a little different. There will be a massive shift in quantity this year as I catalog all of them.

Despite the (half-)joke adage my friends and I hold of "bargain bin records don't count," I did technically break my attempt at a No Buy Q1 when I went for my birthday shop with the money from my wife and son - I nabbed a pair of bargain bin records for under $20 in addition to what they wound up getting me!

Half a dozen of the new purchases for this year were actually my wife doing her first big record buy in two years, which was really fun to see!
I'm gonna poach @Lee Newman's Most Recent Addition line to make figuring my month out less math-y going forward.
(Also, great most recent get Lee! My copy is currently in Chicago looking to clear customs!)

As I have been doing since the beginning of the year, I have been including newly cleaned and catalogued records in with the free additions, as I didn't have everything together at the beginning of the year. Last few left to clean and then everything is fully up-to-date, just need some more money for inner-sleeves and outer sleeves!

I was happy to snag it during the sale, I really liked it but thought the vinyl was overpriced.
