    This is more like my highs and lows for both June and July.

    Highs:

    Went on vacation! Beautiful Torch Lake, MI.

    Got a nice bonus, and a raise!

    Found a few things at some garage sales over the past few weeks.

    The old plastic Voltron where you put the figures in the lions, w/ sword and shield, minus all the figures. Great shape,stickers nice, nothing broken. $40

    Matchbox die cast Voltron, missing green lion's head and the weapons. Pristine shape. It was obvious this thing was in a box for the last 25-28 years. Ended up paying $20, after some other dood actually bought it because he got to it before me (for two dollars!?), but my gf actually went up to him after I had walked away, and offered the guy $20 for it because she knew I wanted it badly. And he took it. Awesome.

    I went to a local toy store that sells all the vintage stuff. Found a sweet Metal Men set of little figures, MISB. $5
    I bought a Macross Armored Factory complete and not even taken off the trees, in their bags within the box. $15
    And I broke down and finally bought a G1 Wheeljack, in great shape, 100% complete. $100

    Got my Matty haul.
    2 Keldors
    1 She-Ra
    1 Faker
    DCUC Wave 5
    1 Lobo

    Got a $10 dollar off coupon for one day sale at TRU. So I went and ended up getting Leader Starscream and PCC Bombshock because it was Buy 1 get 1 50% off. $48

    Lows:

    Went on vacation! But had to have embarrassing fights with gf in front of her family.

    Got a raise! But it didn't show up on my check when my boss told me it was coming, so now I have to go and tell my boss I didn't get my raise I was just thanking you for.

    My cat had to have surgery and wear a cone for the last 3 weeks in all this heat. -$500

    Car needed a broken wheel bearing and tire repaired. -$450
