    Highs: 2 08 BB's, found at Kohl's through sheer luck, 1 Classics Grimlock, and 1 Classics Mirage.

    Lows: Spent waaaay too much on TFs this week. Meh, the way I figure it, this'll be the last time in a while I'll be spending money on toys anyway, so in the long run it won't be such a huge loss.

    If there was an Arcee at Kohl's there a good chance you barely missed the 08 BB by a day or two.
