Picked these up at a Thrift Store today:



Diablo II is new/sealed - $2
Pelican Codebreaker for PS2 - $3
Destroy All Humans 2 (Xbox) - $3
Phantasy Star Universe (360) - $7


2 Dualshock 3 controllers for PS3 - $4 each
PS 3 Eye Camera - $4
PS3 Motion controller and Navigation controller - $2 for the set



SNES controller - $4
Gamecube controller - $4
NES RF Cable - $2



Not really a game, but a new paper cutter to help fine tune my printed covers - $5



And this is a bonus...inside the SNES bag was a DS case with 2 games: 
Lego Star Wars the Complete Saga
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
These were technically free since they were bundled in with the SNES bag, 

Everything has since been opened and tested since the pics were taken (except Diablo, which I plan to keep sealed). Everything works great and is in good shape.

I know those tags. Here in Maryland I've seen them at Village Thrift Stores and Valu Villages. Pretty good pick up. Do you try to hold out until Sunday/Monday to get the color sales?

I don't go to your store, but I do go to that chain.  And no, as much as I would like to wait for the sale days, the stock won't last.  If I don't get in on Wednesday morning when they put this stuff out then it's pretty much a wash.  If you notice, 90% is purple, which is he new stock for the week

I guess I don't know for sure, but you said Maryland.  I am not in Maryland.  So unless you travel around to other locations, I stand by my statement.   ;D

But if we do go to the same ones, I'm sure we'd recognize each other.

Haha. You live pretty close to me (~40 miles assuming you are in Baltimore).

Too far a distance for me to travel to hit a thrift store though. :(

Perhaps a pseudo-pick up. My local video renting store has Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon CIB on DS for 25 dollars.

While that's quite a lot for a DS game, according to eBay the price of a complete is about 70 bucks.

As a former Blockbuster employee, I find this pretty funny

So.....just late night perusing on eBay and I saw Duck Tales 2 for like $100.  I just threw in a random bid slightly higher than the price, not expecting anything.
And I won.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/131183937660

But what I did NOT realize, was that it also comes with Duck Tales 1. 

So I got both games for just under $104.00

Not a steal by any means, but I'm pretty happy with this.

I also had a surprising eBay win.  I can't believe I won this as the only bidder.  I think it's a pretty good deal.

Game Boy Advance e-Reader with 158 e-cards for $30 with shipping.  I'm mostly interested in the Super Mario Bros. 3 cards (SMA 4).  I'm looking forward to playing the extra levels.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
