A vinyl record store that has a 70 ish hippie style decor and been a establishment for over 30 years (or more in Kanawha City).They carry not only records, there is tapes, bohemian clothes,a adult section, lighters,pipes, jewelry, sandals,oils,tapestries, band t-shirts and many other items to choose from.It’s a wonderful and unique shop that you must visit if your in West Virginia there are not many like this around.

Budget has been one of my favorite stores for years now, I often come in to buy incense and other cool things. The staff are friendly and super cool and so is the manager. I definitely give this place a 10/10, everything is way worth the money, great quality and everything. :)

Loved the clerks! I think it was Kayla and another woman who is pregnant. They were amazing!! Very helpful too!! I am so happy they were there to help me

This is a special place to many people spanning generations of music and cool-culture lovers. A selection of music, curated carefully for its customers, is available on disc and vinyl. Incense, glass, cigars, and adult novelties round out the always interesting inventory. The best part is the proprietor, John. John has been there since the beginning. The owner now - he recognizes his customers no matter how long its been since theyve been there - and he always has something waiting for them. Ive been turned on to music I wouldnt otherwise have known existed. Love Budget.

This place has been around since I can remember. John is the best. This place is part of my history while growing up. I love you guys, keep up the great atmosphere. Best customer service. Very discreet. Love you guys so knowlegablee

I have been going there since early 80s one of my favorite all time stores in West Virginia hands down. Ty you Budget Tapes and Records Chris Daugherty 2020

They do have some cool items, but I get bad vibes from the owner.

Budget is my favorite shop in Charleston! With the variety of fun and interesting products, I actually get excited when I walk in! John and his staff are just the best in helping you, and are so friendly. Theyre also always up-to-date on new and exciting stuff.

Love it. Great selection of random unique gifts for 15years old - 109 years old and/or plenty of goodies to treat yourself. I always buy my incense here. Prices are also very reasonable. SHOP MOM AND POP!

John is always so nice and a good dude

Awesome place...been going here for years......

Very frustrated I asked for an item in the adult section and am very shy and quiet. They gave me the wrong item and when I said I dont think this is it the clerk reassured me it was and gave me a total. I paid bc I didnt know what to do. I walked out to my car and then directly back in to tell them it was not the item and showed them what I wanted. They gave me another total and asked me to pay refused to exchange even tho it was still taped closed and in the brown paper bag stapled i refused to make another purchase since they told me they wouldnt make the mistake right and i recommend no one go here especially shy and quiet people like me. The are con artists and screwed me out of 70 dollars. My big called them to speak to the manager and he was zero help wouldnt give the owners number or give even a discount or gift card to make up for any of the mistakes I as well as several ppl I know will no longer be returning to this store full of car salesmen and con artists.

Friendly stuff with a amazing items.
