Chrono Trigger is a great find! Now you can spend some money on a box/manual, and still get a good overall deal.

I don't have jobs where I live, how do you think I feel? You all with your...shiny toys and...Mortal Kombats...and....sex parties.

My only pick up thus far is a brand new PlayStation Move bundle, complete with the PlayStation Eye, the Move controller, and a sealed copy of Sports Champions. I can't be bothered to take pictures as I don't have my camera right now. The price was the best of thing. How much you ask? FREE.

My neighbor just bought the 320GB PS3 Move bundle and did not want anything to do with the Move so he gave it to me free of charge. I even offered to buy it off him, but he said no. :D

That's pretty sweet. My neighbors do baffling things, too, but they never work out in my favor. :D

Traded for these at Gamestop. Exciting, I know. I'm really ready to find a new job. The dog didn't come from Gamestop, I already had that.

And later on that night, he brought over grilled barbecue chicken, grilled porkchops, grilled hot dogs, and homemade mashed potatoes. Neighbor of the year. :applause:
 
May is already looking nice for me.

This month is looking good, when I got to work today a guy there who's in the process of moving asked if I wanted a copy of Guitar Hero Aerosmith and the guitar. He says he found them on ebay a year ago for $5 and free shipping, and just picked them up for the hell of it despite not having a PS3. He gave them to me for free, the games still sealed, even :V
 
No pics, but I got The Beatles Rock Band Limited Edition bundle for PlayStation 3 at Sears for $100. Other than the box being very beaten up, all of the contents inside was brand new.

I've been playing this for a few hours now and I don't know how true this is, but apparently, Medieval Madness isn't the only table in this game.
 
Went to BB today to pick up one of those clearanced PowerGig sets and I stumbled onto a UMD version of Patapon 2. Been looking for one.
 
[quote name='Zaku77']Here is my second of these videos that people probably don't care about lol. Any feedback is appreciated (especially a good free program!!!! :3)

Hey everyone. These are my early May/ really late April pickups

From thrift stores:
P5160002.jpg
P5160001.jpg

For a $1 i couldn't pass these up.
P6020002.jpg

I found these later but they were 100% complete. The day I found these the thrift store was full of complete games. I picked out the best sadly no Stadium Events, Earthbound or anything to rare (Did NES/SNES games come in a plastic baggie inside the box?)
Flea Market:
P5160003.jpg

An Atari 7800, 2600-Vader, and a Sears Tele-Games. With some controllers (anyone know what that white and blue controller is for?) All for $20 and in working condition.
Finally kicking off May with an really awesome start for hunting
Craigslist:
P6070001.jpg

Everything works and is complete/accounted for *to the best of my researching* First the guy was saying they sell for $1000, then he was asking for $300, I finally got it down to a reasonable $100. I have been looking for this for ever.
