At Least, at Last is an album from the band The Posies, released in 2003.

At Least, at Last is a box set containing a "history" of The Posies b-sides, demos, and outtakes from 1987-1998 on four discs. Published by Not Lame records, this box set was produced to satisfy fans after the reported "demise" of the band in 2000. Although the band has since reformed with the release of an E.P. and three new full-length studio albums, the box set has been a "holy grail" in most Posies fans collections. This set is currently out of print and The Posies have no intention to re-publish it.

Some highlights on the boxed set include a cover of Blondies' song, "Dreaming", and a song recorded for the television program, Bill Nye the Science Guy, entitled "Oceanic Exploration" to the tune of their original song "Flavor Of The Month". Also included in the set are liner notes for each song written by both founding members.
