My first time "power shopping" payed off

CAGiversary!
I've browsed these forums since January but never had the money at one time to just go to a gamestore and get a collection of cheap but good games. I had spent all my money on pre-determined things till now. Sunday and about 30 min ago, I went to EB and, IMO, did a good job of shopping. Here's what I got on Sunday:
House of the Dead 2 (Pre-owned)=$7.99-GMR discount
Kessen (Pre-owned)=$9.99-GMR discount
MadCatz Light Gun for DC (Pre-owned)=$14.99
Grand total of $36.XX.
And today I got the following:
Blood Omen 2 (Pre-owned, Xbox)=$11.99-GMR discount
Gungrave (New)=$19.99
Robotech: Battlecry Collector's Edition (New)=$9.99
Silent Scope (Dreamcast, Pre-owned)=$9.99-GMR discount
Tribes: Aerial Assault (Pre-owned)=$14.99-GMR discount
Grand total of $57.XX.
I know it isn't the best deal anyone has ever gotten, but like I said above, this is the first time I've browsed for good, cheap games, so this is a new experience to me and I'm proud of what I achieved my first time.
 
not bad. my first time (wow that came out wrong) i went to cc and got like 4 games for around 40 bucks. this weekend im going to bb to pick up a bunch.
 
I just did the same thing myself actually.

Breakdown: $20
Voodoo Vince: $10
Outlaw Volleyball: $10
Indiana Jones and the Emperors Tomb: $Free after $10 EB voucher
Robotech Battlecry: $10 after shipping

$50 for 5 games ain't bad at all.
 
I know Gungrave was a little overpriced. And I've played Blood Omen 2 before, so I know what I'm buying in that case, and I think it's definitely worht the money I payed for it. Everything didn't go down smooth, though. They forgot to put Tribes in the case, but obviously I can just pick that up tommorow. Plus, Silent Scope requires you to use the 1st controller port, which is burned out on my DC, so I'm gonna have to exchange that tommorow as well.
 
[quote name='FlipSide']I bought Blood Omen 2 for $10 brand new(Walmart Clearance), so $11.99 for used is a bit much.[/quote]

Well, it was a clearance that you got yours at. And see, if I'm gonna buy something, then I go to one store. I don't go to one store, think I can get a better price at another (unless it's like $20 off), and go there to buy it.
 
When I go back tommorow to get the disc for Tribes and exchange Silent Scope, I'm pretty sure I'm gonna have some more money. I was looking at Red Faction 2 (pre-owned) for $10, is it worth it?
 
Went back today and got the disc for Tribes because they forgot to put it in last night. I exchanged Silent Scope for Sub Rebellion and got Kingdom Hearts for $17.99.
