    Roffels. That happens too many times with us, and with everything! If we just bought what we said out to buy, we'd have half the stuff we do now. (Transformers and interior decor items come to mind quickly)

    I went to best buy to buy the DVD. I figured 20 bucks.

    total was 48 after I upsold myself the special edition with the robot heroes and got a Ratchet.

    I'm glad they were out of copies of Half Life 2 Orange box now, otherwise, I'd be broke!

    I know what you mean. I ran to Target and picked up the deluxe edition, then decided to add a bottle of cranberry juice to the bill. Man, it's easy for that $25 to shoot up to $30.

    :p

    Yeah. I went out fully intending on picking up one copy for myself and one copy each for two coworkers. Ended up getting those, then an extra copy for myself at Best Buy, and Metallic Ratchet, and then gearing up and going, "WTH? I already spent this much." Then I headed over to Walmart to get their exclusive prequel thingy.

    So, yeah, I'm about $100 down for just running into town to pick myself up a copy.

    Mine called me while I was out shopping to make sure I picked up a copy of the movie. She's more obsessed about watching it again than I am.

    I went to CC for the HD copy of the movie which came with the hat(not bad I must say) 31.00

    Then Best Buy to get the dvd with the robot heroes figures....Worst thing ever because I ended up getting the 2 voyager figures. All in all I came out with 2 voyager figures(didn't own the first editions of these figures and that megs looks great in those colors), the mini robot heroes, 2 disk dvd, Megs Picture all for $62.00 The 2 disk is going to a friend so new total is 40.00

    Then walmart for another friend 2 disk, of which Im keeping the Bonus DVD :)  total is nothing lol

    Not a bad haul but more then I thought I would spend.
