Yesterday at Goodwill was one of those awesome days where they roll out a little shelf-cart full of games and DVDs. For $3 each, I got:
God of War
Age of Mythology Gold
LOTR: BFME2
Home Movies: Season 1

For $25, I got:
oXbox console w/ transparent green controller, picture cord, and Rallisport 2 Challenge.

And to think I almost didn't bother stopping in.

That sounds like a fairly good deal for what I believe would be about $62.

Where'd you get $62 from??? Anyway, you're way off. Try more like $80.

Anyway, that's not a bad deal at all. :)

1.25 dollars to the euro, at 50 euros would be 62.5 dollars.
Should be relatively accurate, unless the exchange rate changed by 30% in favor of the euro in the last few months, or if magic chris deceived me.
