Ok, I'm going to just list everything I bought today, 95% of which was gaming stuff. My thrifts never ever have anything, but today I only got 2 hours of sleep after work, because our AC quit working and it was just too hot to sleep. (Like 104+ degrees in the house.) So I decided since I was up during the daytime for once to go thrift hunting. I go about once a week usually with my mom. We meet up, and she does what I do with games, except with really expensive purses. Usually she makes out with lots more than I do. She really puts my thrift hunting/money making skills to shame. However today, was the biggest haul I've ever had.(Probably the only real "haul" I've ever had.) Also remember: My thrifts _suck_, so this is pretty amazing.
I'll start backwards from thrift store 2 which had more gaming stuff, to thrift store 1. Read through it all as the grand total I payed for all this is listed at the end.(Plus number of items total I bought.)
Here's what I picked up at thrift store 2:

If anybody wants anything I'll be posting a lot of this on ebay soon. Although it's going to take a while to seperate what I'm keeping from what I don't need. I'd say 90%+ of this is going to be sold off on ebay. I just need the money more than the stuff. If anybody wants anything just send me a message! I'll post the link to the auctions as soon as I get all this organized, etc.
If anyone wants pictures of something, just ask.
Share your thoughts! =)

Yes I will very soon. When I posted this I also discovered our househould had become infested with some highly spreadable, and highly damaging computer virus. It's called PE_PARITE.A, and is full of trojan's/backdoors and all kinds of junk. My computer is slowly being turned into peanut butter... I fixed 2 computers so far. Even TrendMicro's housecall couldn't rid me of it, but AVG 7.5 seems to be doing the trick. I'm going to have to reinstall my camera, as the .exe was destroyed that lets me go through pics, along with nearly every other .exe on my computer. When I'm rid of this beast, I'll try to get some pics up of everything!
