    On the whole christmas time thing, does anyone here keep buying tf's for themselves or do you supply loved ones with "the list". I bought a small legends class one for myself today. And last Saturday, i picked up Shockwave and Skywarp, and got home and handed them to the wife so her and the kids could wrap them. i Just feel guilty about buying and opening toys for myself when i tell the kids "no, santa will be here in just a week." lol.

    If I pass a Target or Wal-Mart on my way to or home from work, I'll pull in.

    But this is my normal shopping process, regardless of the weather.

    I don't "hunt".

    Waste of time and gas if you're not 100% successful.

    Weather around me hasn't been too bad, so the snow hasn't impeded my collecting so far. Though the flu has, which I've had since Monday. It's beginning to let up, so I should have a decent holiday.

    Won't affect me, as I don't live in WNY, let alone NY. Can't remember how much, but my area is in for a little bit of snow sometime in the next couple of days, but no where near a foot. Weather probably won't get that bad around here for another couple of weeks, if not a month.

    I'm from Western New York.

    The snow hasn't particularly impeded my efforts, but I purchase most of my Transformers through the Internet.

    not so much the weather,even though it has sucked here recently,but i just despise the packed parking lots,traffic,and most of all the jammed toy aisles filled with clueless inconsiderate fools that just stand in front of the figs i want just blocking me from getting them and getting the hell outta there. don't u just love the ladies that are going through every fig on the peg while on the phone asking if lil' johnny has this or that fig while you're just waiting for there fat asses to just move outta the way for two seconds.

    3 straight days of snow, about 2 feet and still coming down.

    20°F Temp

    6°F wind chill

    I am used to it, but still not so fun.
