As for Goodwill... they have gone way up on their prices round here, and I almost never find any suitable canvasses (about all I find is the pre-printed "art" canvasses, and they have this weird plastic sort of varnish layer that paint doesn't stick to that well). It is actually rare if I can find a bargain on much of anything I want or need at Goodwill these days sad to say. a vigorous sanding will add some tooth to adhere some gesso over those canvases should take paint too especially cel-vinyl.... the KartoonKolor ones are the ones i get(from Art Supply Warehouse here and i think you can order them online if they're not in your vicinity!
