I'm out shopping and see a used semi-obscure 7th gen game for $10. I think "hey not bad" and buy it.
Get home to see you can get it NEW on Amazon for $5.

I just realized last night that the current Amiibo situation very closely mirrors the plot to Mario vs Donkey Kong for the GBA. Life imitating art again?
Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?

A few times I've been in a bookstore killing time, see a book that looks interesting, start to go to buy it and then remember I should just pull it up on my Amazon app.Exhuminator wrote:Yep.

I do this too, but try not to do it if I am at a store where I actually care if they stick around...MrPopo wrote:A few times I've been in a bookstore killing time, see a book that looks interesting, start to go to buy it and then remember I should just pull it up on my Amazon app.Exhuminator wrote:Yep.

That's a good point. Personally I live in the sticks so it doesn't matter to me. I have to drive 45 minutes to get to any decent stores. Granted I have GameStops closer than that, but those can burn in hell.dsheinem wrote:I do this too, but try not to do it if I am at a store where I actually care if they stick around...

That Amazon app has a bar code scanner. Kind of underhanded to scan a code in the store but I'm a rebel!
