The shopping thread *can´t think of a better name*

[Holyrapid]

So, i copy the idea from THE Finnish RM-forum, RPG Maker Finland. The idea of this topic is to tell others what you´ve bought recently. You can post things you bought at the local Kwik-E-Mart (lol?), or ordered from a net store. (i.e kwik-e-mart.d'oh)

My latest bought is the newest album of Sonata Arctica, The Days of Grays. Haven´t had really time to listen it properly, since i came from the concert of Lauri Tähkä (google with copy-paste if you want to know more). I then went to a loca store S-Market (the S just means Sokos, the chain of stores it´s part of...) to wait for my dad, who was to pick me up. My mom had given me 20€ (euros, roughly 20-25$, i´m not so sure about the currencies relations) to prehaps buy a cd of Lauri Tähkä, or something. I didn´t like the concert enough to but their album, so i went to the S-Market, and bought the Sonata CD instead. Along with 35cl (centi-liter) bottle of coke...

(and if anyone has a better idea for a name, tell us, and eithr i or the mods [if they want to] can change it...)

[fugibo]

I believe it is one of The Complete Sherlock Holmes (a very nice leather one at that, Transatlanticism or Feeling Strangely Fine (Death Cab for Cutie and Semisonic albums, respectively).

BTW, €20 is $29.47.

[winkio]

I bought 10 packs of Ramen for $1.40.  Hell yeah.

[Aqua]

Does a $2 salad for lunch count?
It was so small... >.>

I know how you feel. I got a roll and a tiny piece of BBQ chicken.

...while everyone in the other line (we have two to speed up the process of buying food, even though it still sucks) got a BIG piece of chicken. AND BEANS!!!! >=V

[G_G]

I just bought a 12 pack of mountain dew 6 bucks, and 4 candy bars another 3 bucks.

[Holyrapid]

Where do you guys live, since you have so cheap food? (or at least it seems cheap to me...)
Anyway, my lates boughts (call em what you want to... <.<) were a 0,45l (that´s short for liter. Finland uses metric system, in everything... heights, weights, distances... which allmost equals height, except it goes along the surface, and not upwards...) bottle of battery Juiced Cranberry (Battery energy drink with added Cranberry juice), and a salami sandwich. The Battery cost 2,87€ (though, we round the prices to the nearst five cents, at least when paying with cash. If buying/paying with credit/bank card) and the sandwich cost 1,87€
a bit too much for a poor students wallet...

In English, the word is for something you bought is a "purchase."

[Tazero]

I bought a ... can of soda.....60 cents

[Lore]

I bought two used Xbox 360 Consoles, with accessories, a controller and two free games for $175 from some guy. Great success.

Oh and yesterday I bought a book for English, "The House on Mango Street" Boring book... 2 Snickers, a big bag of Skittles, 5 Recess', and 10 Venom Energy Drinks (Black Mamba of course) all for ~$35. It's for staying up all night playing MW2 this weekend (:
Not all for me of course.

[winkio]

I ordered a Dominos pizza, 5-5-5 deal, hell yeah.

Oh, and about $500 worth of textbooks.

[Landith]

Ouch...Textbooks. College?

[winkio]

[King Munkey]

I spent about 300+ on a Wii and wii fit and muramasa the demons blade. Pre-ordered Final Fantasy XIII, Bought Final Fantasy VIII via PSN, some ram for my desktop, $300 worth for textbooks, Some new clothes, Gas for my car, Foodz, and among other things that I probably cannot think of right now.

[Merōna]

I bought a curry wurst in a amusement park for 3,20€.
But it was SO SMALL! It was frustrating!! Not worth the money ;_;
I hate amusement parks ;_;

[Tyril132]

how is Sacred 2? I liked the original.

[Spoofus]

its good i think and if you do everything in it,it's easily 100+ hours of gameplay it kills time thats for sure pc version of it is probably better but the 360 version it good enough for me,plus xbox live multiplayer(not alot of people play it but you can find a few games going most the time ,but if you get it on 360 let me know and we will play) if you into diablo like games then id recommended but thats just me

[Tazero]

A B.C Rich Warlock Bronze -(Six string guitar) and a Fuel(By first act <.< practice amp, I would've bought a better amp but my funds wouldn't allow it...

lol, that's epic.

I bought a giant orange Gatorade the other day for $4.00(Good price, that.) at a gas station, and 4 burritos for a school lunch(not all eaten on the same day. ) every day for $8.00... what a fucking rip-off.

I know my school needs money and all, but still... I can go to Taco Bell for lunch and get 5 or 6 bigger burritos for cheaper, and they have better ingredients in them. And really, if they need to use their extortionate prices for lunch, why would they even allow kids to have off campus passes for lunch?  

[Landith]

Rose, you suck... -.-'
I've been wanting that laptop since it first came out D:

Tell me how she runs (:
But question... why lunar silver? The black looks so much sexier with the red. IMO of course.

But I still have the old m17 alienware.
Just the specs with the m17x are so much better D:
Plus the red lights on the m17x are cooler than the blue ones on the m17 :/

Btw: Might wanna take off the nameplate on the receipt unless you want stalkers... :O

I don't know about the old M17, but the lights on the M17x can change colors; I'm planning to use the light blue color, for a while at least, which I think would look better with a silver casing. I'll be sure to post updates once it gets here, which will hopefully be in about two weeks.  And yes, I should probably have removed my name from the receipt. :/

[Subsonic_Noise]

Too late, now I'm already stalking you. Look outside your window.

[Landith]

Spoiler: ShowHide

It looks like that but with blue lights on the alienware symbol and different things light up blue.
But yeah taking your name off would have been a good idea

I would recommend updating the home premium to ultimate though, to get the full experience of a gaming laptop ;D

I wasn't aware it made a difference as far as gaming. How does Ultimate effect things?

[Kett Shee]

A spicy chicken biscuit and a half pint of milk for breakfast, $0.30.

[Landith]

@Rose: Well as far as I'm concerned, nothing. But I mean you don't want to have a laptop that cost 2 grand and say you have Home Premium do you? You want to say you have Windows 7 Ultimate. That and I think you get more features with Ultimate. Too lazy to really look it up atm. But how is your laptop so far?

[Mikhail]

Well, Blizzard Oreos, of course! Those shits are pretty good!

Fantastic! My only complaint is that the touch pad seems a little... bad. But I have a nice Logitech Wireless Laser Mouse that makes up for it, and everything else about the computer is even better than expected. I can even run a PS2 emulator is 1200p at a smooth 60 fps, and, with it being such a crappy emulator to begin with, that's no mean feat. Fallout 3 runs at full settings flawlessly. I haven't tried Crysis, as I don't have it; that's supposed to be the a real challenge for even very high powered rigs, so I'll have to download a demo or something and see how my M17x copes.

[Chaze007]

just purchased SRK's soul, $3.95

(And some chinese food for 6 bucks, man that shit was rollin')

[Subsonic_Noise]

Got myself a lava lamp, sunglasses, contact lenses (since my eyes a pretty much broken, I just didn't know) and a drink called "Cannabis Ice Tea".
I sure hope it's as good as it sounds.

I bought the Toradora! season 1 premium edition. Pretty neat:

Box: ShowHide

Overall the box is pretty sweet. It's about an inch deep and made of extremely sturdy cardboard. It's definitely one of the high quality boxes I've seen. Aesthetically, the box is also quite cool, being awesome and abnormally tell, so it stands out. The only complaint that comes to mind is the awkward height for shelving, but I found a place on my computer desk, so it's all good.

Art Book and Episode Guide: ShowHide

DVDs: ShowHide

The box came with two DVDs going up to episode 13 which is half the series and an art book with character guides, voice actor interviews, commentary, relationship guides and a few other bonus features. Overall, it was a really nice experience and the entire box was such a great buy. The DVDs themselves are high quality and I suppose any fans of the show who are willing to spend the money would be delighted with the purchase. The second season is coming out soon with the same packaging, so I'm thinking of picking that up.

Overall the box cost me $46.99.

[Holyrapid]

1,5 meter HDMI cable for bit under 8€.
Irwin Goodman's (a Finnish singer) double-CD as Christmas present for my dad for 19,90€
First season of Heartbeat drama series as a DVD box for my mom as a christmas present.

IT LOOKS LIKE A SPACESHIP!!!

[Subsonic_Noise]

HOLY FUCK

Spoiler: ShowHide

Count the strings. Yes, you see right - this is a seven string guitar, a Cort EVL Z47.  I just got it today, from the money a friend lend me, and it's fucking amazing. Rosewood fingerboard, bolt-on neck, mahagony corpus, black silk finish, two passive humbuckers by EMG, custom string-through bridge and abalone pentagram inlays, easy as fuck to play, goes as low as Drop G# with standart strings, sounds epic clean as well as distorted in the entire frequency range it has, and all of that for only 370€. I love it. <3

How do you know Niche's hair looks like a bird's nest? Bring back the FROHAWK!
@WhiteRose; I've spent many hours drooling over pictures, reviews and performance benchmarks of the M17x. It's a pity I could only scrape together 600 euros to buy my Sony Vaio EB1E0E (Very long, difficult to remember model names ftv)
15inch HD screen. i3 processor and 3 gigs of ram, unfortunately I got a fricking integrated graphics card which get's pwned by high end games or games with particular graphics card requirements. (DIGRESSION ALERT!)
