Weekend Finds. March 28-30th

[Raedon]

picked up another Secret of Mana today. $3.99

Got another N64 Clay Fighter Sculpters cut up for trade

Best Buy had a Wavebird deal today only.. Buy a $29.99 Gamecube Carry bag and get a free Wavebird. They also had the GBA to GC cable for 7.99 so I can get Tingle now.

[stonecutter]

what you want for the Sculptors Cut? Also is Paypal cash a consideration if I don't have trade bait?

[Raedon]

I could use a loose Indiana Jones: Infernal.

[stonecutter]

that I don't have, I might be able to, I have been trying to get one at a local Blockbuster... but the " acting MGR" says she cant since she has 2, if she had 3 she could but whenever I go there it is never rented, go figure. I want to see the REAL MGR lol

[stonecutter]

ok this is f@#$%d, my post says wanting to see real mgr, but I typed want, and when I go to edit to fix the typo it says "want ".

whats with that?'

[samuraiX]

Ok well.... this week has been FRIGGEN AWESOME!
I got a package of 28 Neo Geo games and guess what I spy....!

US Neo Turfmasters and US Stakes Winner

I won't say the price of the whole package deal yet but lets just say it qualifies for the find of the year without a doubt.

hmmm... other than that... lol

I picked up a new copy of Rage of the Dragons (also for the Neo)

a few boxed Camerica NES games

and some other stuff... gah! Long live the Neo!

[dreamcaster]

Picked up Mario Paint with mouse for SNES for $15 AUS (boxed, but no manual.

Also found an instruction manual for Nigel Mansell's World Championship Racing for SNES, for free.

And that's probably it for a long time, as I no longer have a job and I just spent the last of my pay...

[badinsults]

I totally picked a bag of dill pickle chips, it was totally sweet!

Nintendo Power Guide to Super Mario Bros. 3
