Probably, but personally I'm not totally sure where they're stored, and I kinda like having a job.
When I worked at Kmart years ago, electronics had their own locked room in the back just for their smaller pricey overstock. I only ever went in there 2 or 3 times.

We have a locked room too, it's called the "electronics cage." Only management has keys to it. And yeah, I want to have a job. The only people in the store who have any kind of shot at stealing new consoles and getting away with it are the unloaders.

I have seen the entire truck crew get fired and replaced a couple of times because one of them was stealing things and all of them knew about it and never reported it.

Who knows a good site for SMS game prices? I think I could possibly get a complete set for it.

The same places we say every time someone asks where to figure out a price for something.

So as I was playing Firepower 2000 earlier I had a flashback of when my friend that I used to play it with claimed that it's easier to play as the helicopter than it is to play as the jeep. Well, I call bullshit on that. There's way more shit to run into in the air than there is on the ground, plus the multi-directional shooting that the jeep is capable of makes it way easier to dodge oncoming bullets, especially when you've played it enough to know what to expect.

Just sayin'.
