This is the time to scoop up cheap CDs! While poking around eBay, I found a few listings for what they are calling "wholesale lots" of CDs. Basically, a prepackaged box of used CDs for less than a dollar each. Can't pick the contents, but it's great if someone wanted to beef up a collection quickly.
This listing has 100 CD for $24.98, with discounts if you buy more than one lot.

Here are 170 CDs for $37.99.

Here's 3,000 CDs for $200. But it's local pickup only.
1 Pallets Music CD's (3000+ CD's) Great buy for resale! All Genres Music Cd's! | eBay
And, 1,000 for $283:
Lots of 1000 Used ASSORTED CD's - 1000 Bulk MISC CD- Used CD Lot - Wholesale CDs | eBay
There are numerous smaller lots where the discs work out to about $1 each.
Sad thing is, these aren't worth a store purchasing for retail, as that is where these came from. Many used record shops can't move CDs anymore--nobody is buying them anymore. My closest used shop won't even buy them back anymore.
