CAGs July Pick Up List "Did I really buy this?"

[quote name='Dro']I only buy real, even fakes are expensive so for like double the price of a fake one you can get a real one so why not.

But yeah I spend alot of $$$ on clothes but right now I still don't pay bills or anything so I'm just enjoying it for now.[/QUOTE]


Whered you buy them from? Real Bapes are at least $300 and up for just one hoodie. Same with BBC. Unless you bought them used.

[quote name='Zing']HAHAHAHAHAHA

This is by far the funniest thing I have read in weeks. This is a joke, right? Tell me it isn't really BABY APE hahahahaha.[/quote]
Its Bathing Ape actually.Clothing and Shoe brand. Shoes look suspiciously like Nike Air Forces.
 
[quote name='addicted2games']I'm glad I am a jeans/t-shirt kind of guy. More money to spend on games and not clothes.[/quote]

Same here. I'd sooner go to the Salvation Army and pick up some second hand 'name brand' shit than pay $300 for something brand new. I'm like Cmosfm, I wear the SAME 2-3 jackets I've had for YEARS already and only buy other stuff when it hits clearance.

Back on topic though, I'm thinking of grabbing Genji(PS3) from Kmart for $5 or so(if it drops to $5 and not out of the system this month). Otherwise, I'm not really planning on grabbing anything this month.

Oh and WTF is with the massive hoarding from TRU and Gamestop? I assume I'm missing out on some majorly abused big % off coupon that won't be accepted by the time I print some up, huh?
 
[quote name='LeafPanda']Odin Sphere on Final Clearance at Gamestop[/quote]

The nearest gamestop to me sold all Odin Spheres on Day 1! T^T

I haven't been following the TRU thread, but I think it's because of "cheap clearance plus 20% extra off" at TRU and high TIV at other stores, possible the "extra $10 on two current gen trade ins".
 
[quote name='addicted2games']I'm glad I am a jeans/t-shirt kind of guy. More money to spend on games and not clothes.[/QUOTE]Same here. I cant justify spending that much money on a crappy cotton hoody with a stupid design.

Basically, you are paying for the logo on the front. With 300$ I can go down to the Outlet Store in Morongo and buy a buttload of Levis, a bunch of plain shirts and shoes.

Everyone has their own stuff the like. Some people here buy lots of games and do they play them? Sometimes not. They just buy it to buy it. Do they care no since they enjoy it. Audiophiles buy some expensive ass speakers when cheaper speakers can also do. Some people just like buying certain clothes.
 
I just purchased an Xbox 360!

This is what was included:

Xbox 360/20GB HDD/Power/AV Cables
Controller, however it is missing the battery pack, but it came with a Play and Charge Cable.
The Godfather

All of that was $150 on Craigslist.

This is true, but think of how many normally priced items you could have had for the price of those TWO. Hell, I even cringed and it was almost impossible for me to consider parting with $350 for the part I paid in cash for a 40 gb PS3.

But, as you said, you enjoy it so you buy it. But as for me, I still buy some of my stuff from Salvation Army, just not the pre shit stained undies some of them sell though. :whistle2:# I don't know how it's even LEGAL to sell dirty old underwear.
 
Yo, it costs a lot to look that cheap.

New phone, the LG Dare from Verizon Wireless. This phone is amazing (especially alot better than my old phone, Samsung Glyde. Great for people that want something with a touch screen like the iphone, but not with att.

I will put up a mini review in my blog later today.
 
I picked up the following over the weekend:

Rainbow Six Vegas(PS3)-$22.99(FYE)
Heavenly Sword(PS3-$29.99(Gamestop)
Superman Returns(special edition in a metal lunchbox with a comic book)-$6.99 with ANY purchase at FYE, normally sells for $12.99

Nice lunchbox with the SR movie too, since it has a kinda 3-D look to it.

I may stop back at this local shop tomorrow and grab Uncharted for $24 too.

A few DVDs and games I bought over the past few weeks. The one that's kind of hard to see is the Shield Season 1 (which was a blind buy), got it for about $15 after the 40% Half Price Books coupon. I also got the Invisible Man Season 1 (I loved that show when I was younger, I didn't even know it was on DVD) for $18 after HPB coupon.

Timeshift was on clearance at Target for $10, and they had a ton of copies (at least 40). I also got good deals on the Tomb Raider games at Half Price Books, they were both less then $10 each. I haven't played them yet, but I've heard good things about both of them.
