I stoped at Dollar General to pick up a soda, and ther they were.  About 50 or 60 PS1 games for 6 and 8 dollars a piece.  Most of the games I never heard of and that is more then I usually pay for a game I have never played, but I picked one up.  So, check your local Dollar General.

They were probably some of the late system releases.

If you remember some of the titles post them.
Maybe i will recognize them.

I've saw those there too. They had like 5 different PSX games, two were Largo Wintch and Robo Pit 2, but I don't remember the rest.

And the only other one I can remember is Twisted Metal 3

I know Largo Winch was a later release.
I don't remember exactly how close towards the end of game production but i think it came out around the same time as VIP and that Jesse James game.

EDIT
I have seen Baldies before.
Did Agetec have a hand in that one?

All of the games mentioned thusfar have been late launches or budget titles.
Well except Twisted Metal.
Which i will garuntee you saw the GH version of.
There are probably 100 thousand of those floating around just in the Spfld, Mass area lol

Good point. I saw a PS1 copy of Marvel vs. Capcom at EB yesterday selling for $18.

I've seen PS1 games at Dollar General too. A couple others I remember are Castle Ballerburg and Qiz Neo.

they also have PS2 games for $15. I picked up that Sea World Shamu game at Dollar General.

I've seen some at my local Dollar General as well.  They are all budget releases that are bottom of the barrel as far as value.  If you have a Value City by you, most of these games go for $4-5.

For those of you that have them, Thorton's gas stations also occasionally carry PS1 games.  Since I've moved from the Cincy area, I haven't seen any Thorton's down here, so I don't know if they're still doing that.

It'll be interesting to see if Family Dollar has any games as well.  I have recently seen Game Boy Color games at Rite Aid and GBA and PS1 games at Rite Aid, CVS, and Walgreens...little pricey for my taste ($15+).
