Little Money left but like to spend?
Picture special reserve as a sweet shop (or for that matter a shop that sales chocolate).
You have been given 100 pounds (1 pound) to spend on any particular item you want (and can afford).
You can run in and immediately head for the far corner of the store.
As you come to a halt you start to search the shelves with your eyes, scouring around to find that oh so perfect surgary-loaded candy you’ve been waiting for all day.
You start to rock side to side in anticipation and your mouth waters as you realize you can afford anything in the place. But you don’t just want anything, by a long stretch; you want a specific thing.
Not seeing it you reach out and grab a final fantasy 9, 30p muffin (full of random fragments of chocolate) and the chunky larger than life 35p Banjo Tooie bar.
You still have 35p left and being as you are you are determined to spend all of your cash.
Without thinking you put out and grasp your hand upon a random item. You picked XXX turbo CBFD strong adult mints, which are 35p, so by a stroke of luck you can now spend your full pound!
But wait! Whats this?! On the top shelf! Yes the very top!
A 30p golden eye caramel and shurbert bar (smooth and yet sharp shots of tangy shurbert). It’s the one you’ve been searching for!
But whats this?! Shock horror! You don’t have enough money!
“I’ll have to put the mints back,” you say trying to comfort yourself in this time of strife when you know it’s a bit more complicated than that (because you really want to spend your pound).
You look at the mints in your hand and then at the golden eye bar, then back to the mints.
What to do? What to do?! You look at the golden eye bar then the mints, the bar, mints, bar , mints, bar, mints. Then in a flash you throw the mints down and achieve your ultimate goal with the golden eye bar of your dreams in your possession.
A smile grows on your face as you stair at the brightly Colours packaging.
You walk over to the till and drop your goods on the counter and the feeling of self-achievement makes the smile grow even bigger.
You hand over the pound and… the cashier hands you back a 5p. A 5p! 5p! But you want to spend all your money, so what to do?
a.) Walk out the shop with your head held high and a 5p in your pocket ready to contribute to your next purchase.
b.) Put it in a charity box.
c.) Go off and see if you can find something half-decent from the reduced to clear section.
...or...
d.) Go buy a penny sweet game like space invaders or fur fighters?
The decision is all yours...

I enjoyed Max Payne so much, and at the ridiculously low price being offered by SR, I am tempted to purchase this again, simply because I like offers like that.
That 5p should buy a special wrapper for the FF9 bar that should stop it going off in between bites, meaning you can save it for later.
I suppose that a 5p one wouldn't work very well though.
Perhaps a 15p one would be better...
It's time to start searching the streets for a 10p piece...

I would spend all the money on skin-mags and sell them to teens, making a tidy profit and then going back and purchasing quality electronic entertainment at a very reasonable price.
Max Payne £23?
ARE YOU INSANE? But this game for that money.
Damn Dirty Tempting Game Offers
