Went to the grand opening of my local thrift store and got TONS of great stuff! Most notably I got these three things:

Super Mario Bros. Game & Watch Multi Screen!! This was my most exciting purchase and it was just $1!!! :D

Next up, was this boxed copy of Ms. Pac-Man and Scrapyard Dog for the Atari Lynx both with manuals and everything. I was very happy to see the boxes were in excellent condition. They were bundled together for $1!

I got a disc only copy of Wind Waker for $1.90 as well. Never played it, so this will be exciting

All in all, I'd say it was a successful day!

Picked up Beetle Adventure racing for the N64 at the flea market ($4.00), haven't played in years remember it being fun. and 2 Official Wiimote Plus controllers one pink for 15 and the other black in the box for 19 both look like new. I recently had a Black Wiimote plus go bad, so I was in need of a replacement.

Last thing I spent any serious money on was Animal Crossing last Wednesday. But I'm due for an influx of cash this coming Wednesday, at which point I can take a few things off my eBay watch list and into my hands, notably a few 3DS games and a new Master Sword replica.

I picked up the 3DS port of Tales of the Abyss used from GameStop because of Emigre's weeaboo rants about how good it is. :P I've never played the original game (or any Tales game, for that matter), and I generally don't care much for JRPGs (I think I can count on one hand the JRPGs I care about). Regardless, a few hours into the game, and I absolutely love it.

A couple of things (again, mostly gaming related):
-A second Super Famicom (because the first one is slated to arrive in early September, and this one in about two weeks)
-Enemy Zero (JP, complete) for the Saturn (Not sure if it's a good game but for $3,25 I'm willing to take a chance)
-GBA Card Reader boxed (Which should also arrive in the next two weeks)
-Parasite EVE II (PAL, PSX, complete)
-Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon (PC)
-CRT TV (for the older consoles)
-VCR (for my imported consoles)
-And a Master Sword Replica

3DS XL aqua blue (brand new), DSi XL 25th anniversary edition, used (i find it fugly, for some reason).

a pair of sony headphones (20khz), though, i really like 22-5khz ones

the usual stuff we buy on weekends with friends : cans of beer.

planning on buying a 32 led soon.. but til now it'd be a waste of money since TV at home (21' CRT) is not used that often

Thanks to my fiancee I'm broke until tomorrow morning, but I did manage to scrape enough change together to raid the reduced section at Asda for some cheap donuts.

I do plan on splashing out on a new laptop tomorrow though. Doubt I'll clear the credit check but if I do I'll finally have a machine that doesn't crash at the mere mention of YouTube or randomly shock me while writing a letter. If there's money left over and I've already done something nice for the lady, I might even grab a new 3DS game and some DVDs since I have £40 spare having learned that the seller on eBay isn't willing to ship a Master Sword replica to the UK :(

Aren't you having a kid? :rofl2:


Yeah. I get paid in the morning. Once all bills, the other half and our daughter are attended to, I have a little spending money for myself. Don't worry, I'm not how I used to be, juggling things so I could get games and other stuff before paying the rent. Family first, then bills, then me if there's time.
