I came across this Jensen MR-550 portable radio for only $2.92 at my local Goodwill. It sounded good, had a weighty speaker, had a nice antenna, and even had an auxiliary input. Unfortunately, our apartment is literally awash in portable radios and I really didn't need another one. However, it would make a great external speaker for a PC, a laptop, a cellphone, or a tablet.

All you'd have to do is run an external output cable from the headphone port to the auxiliary input on this radio. For three dollars and a length of cable, that's not a bad deal! A similar Jensen radio costs nearly ten times the price new. But, if you need it, it's a nice pickup.
