Dear Goodwill,

Please stop putting oodles of stickers on game labels. Thanks.

Sooo, I suppose I just wanted to share my joy at what I got today. Nothing spectacular, but better than usual.
Feel free to post your first lucky finds this year!

-SNES-
Super Mario All Stars - $6
Contra III: Alien Wars, Killer Instinct, Punch Out, Shadowrun, MK3, Bart's Nightmare, DK Country - $3 each

and then 15 NES carts I didn't have for $0.50 each, most notably of which was River City Ransom (minty).

But THEN I went to a store similar to Play 'n Trade. I was with my sister and her two kids, who were both freaking out at all the stuffed Mario plushies. "Look, uncle David! BEE MARIO!", etc.. They were asking their mom for basically everything in the store, but in a cute way. Some dude walks over, explains that they wouldn't give store credit for the systems he brought in, and asked if we wanted them.

We walked away with a free N64 w/ booster pak, a free Genesis II, and a Playstation 1. Thanks for being cute, kids!
