Just a funny little story about my trip to argos.
It happened about 3 month's ago after about another 3 months of begging, my mum finaly gave in and agreed to get the game I had been craving for ages (Sonic Adventure 2), well anyway, I got the game and I was just about to buy the game and leave when disaster struck *sudden scary music* a 'newbie' at the cash register having problems. As the queue got larger and my patience was running out, but luckily for us the manager cameto relieve him of his shame, as the customers we're quickly hustled through the checkout point and through the doors, but suddenly my spidy sense started tingling, it told me to look at the reciept, as I did this I noticed that the price of the game had been slashed in half of that of the price on the cover, also the same had hapened with the video's my mum bought.
So as a quick thought, are newbies at shops always a bad thing?

I think I got a few quids knocked off the price of my PS2 order because the Dual Shock Controller wasn't availble.
But then, I prefer the substitute they sent to the DS controller. It's more comfy. The handles on the DS controller are far too small for my hands.

Yeah!
If that was me in the queue, I'd have blown my top! I'm sooooooooo impatient!
You should have seen my tantrum when my P.C slowed right down!
Whoooooooaaaaaa Mama!
