You guys are making me so nervous with your TRSI posts. I have until midnight Monday, right? I don't need to order RIGHT NOW?

I'm still wavering over the DVDs. My frugal self says I didn't want the One Piece and Tutu DVDs before and a bargain on something you didn't plan to buy in the first place is no bargain at all. (Bride's Story is a no-brainer. But then I have to beef up the order to get free shipping. So it's either the DVDs or BL prereleases.)

GAH!

Also, WOW. Look at everything you got for only $278. Chicklet, I spent $400+ on manga last month! (Also, all for me. I do sometimes feel awkward about that during this season of giving.)

Yes. But I had pretty much already made my decision on what I wanted to buy, and was just waiting to see if there was anything in today's sale that I would want to add. And since I already got burned with Special A, I wanted to make sure I got everything else I wanted.

Look at everything you got for only $278.

I know, it IS a lot. I'm looking forward to watching this stuff and it will last me a long time. I don't regret my purchases or anything, just...wish I had planned a little better for it. Now that I'm getting back into anime, I think I need to try to keep some extra money in the budget for random sales and things. :/

It is awfully good deals, isn't it. Unfortunately for me, I am carefully not going to go look.

total damage to December budget: 278.30

I'm sorry I did it. I AM SORRY I DID IT.

My damage: $411.00.... unless you count Utena and Nana (and I think Nana at least should count), which means $569.35. And I didn't even count the hi-chews I bought to pad my order for Utena 3. I didn't even count the hi-chews!!! Kill me now. No! Wait, let me watch some of this crap first!

Oh man, I'm sorry my numbers made you feel like you needed to add yours up.

If it makes you feel better, I ended up preordering the Madoka LEs. >.> So you can now feel free to point and laugh at me for my $200 soundtracks. orz

I won't point and laugh because then you might not let me listen to them. ;)

Are you trying to tell me you want copies? Because that can probably be arranged.

Yuu Yuu Hakusho Blu-ray bundle

You technologically advanced person you. I am determined to remain content with my VHS copies.

...Although once I unpack, I am going to research how to copy things from my LDs to my computer. I really don't want to buy all of CCS again in a new format.

Don't you have YYH on LD, too? Or at least half of it--seems like I remember you only bought the first and last boxes. (I'm hoping I'll like the middle better now that I'll actually understand what the hell is going on, but we'll see, I guess.)

Also, be glad that you're happy having CCS on LD, because it is a pain and a half trying to get on DVD now, and I'm totally missing the last five or six volumes. :/

Yes, I should have the first and last boxes somewhere in my storage room. I reasoned at the time I bought them that those were the parts worth watching anyway. The middle is what I only have on VHS.

Aw man, I didn't know RODTV was back in print.
Nor that it was on sale.

Now it's back to the reg price of $100!

Hmmmm,

Read or Die (R.O.D.) The Complete Blu-Ray Box

or

Recording The Beatles: The Studio Equipment and Techniques Used To Create Their Classic Albums.

Both are $100.00-ish.

Decisions. Decisions.

No, $100 IS the sale price. The regular price is $200. So if you want my advice: if you're at all interested in buying it, do it now (sale lasts until midnight).

Ah, my eyes mixed the Yu Yu Hakusho pricing with ROD's

However the sale price is still $100.00 as of Dec 18. This is the longest 11:59 PM in history! ;p

But seriously , how long will the sale last?
