While she is mixed in her feeling about my collecting she is for the most part positive and supportive. Well anyways she had a pallet of toys come in and among them were 3 boxes of wave 11. She put all of them out on the pegs and waited 45min for her break. The 5th was a super sale at Fred Myers and she had a huge collection of coupons. Mark down price on all action figures, 10% off, another 10% off, and then she gets her 15% off employee discount for toys. On top of all that she had a $2 off coupon for a single hasbro action figure and a $10 off purchase of so much. So I figure with the original mark down price of $5.59 for the figure - $0.56 for the 10% and -$0.51 for the other 10% and -$0.68 for my gf's employee discount you get $3.84 a figure. She bought twelve (12) (two complete sets of wave 11)) and with the $12 off the final price it came to 34.08 or $2.84 a figure (regularly 6.99 around here) no tax because its Oregon. The funny thing is she bought the joes to bring her shopping total up to benefit from the coupon. She was going to just call me and make me buy them but she felt that if she was ever going to buy me joes on her dime she was going to make sure they were damn near free. And because nobody believes anything on the tank without pics (LOL) I have them ready.

I was just so happy about my little score and how thrifty/cheap my little lady is.
Wow, Nice I am sure all those coupons were 'supposed' to be used in that fashion..
that is as bad a scam a re-packer or those guys who buy the figs at 4.99 and take them back for 2$ more a peice
i am not attacking you.
but at the same point, I am just pointing out that everyone "gets over' in thier own way.
