being 6'5" i'm able to reach boxes up high in the back. Some times I'm the one shoving them to the back of the top shelf when my wife is around so I can sneak out to get it later. I'm such a pussy?

- You start to have insta-rage when you see one or two repacks from a new wave on the pegs
- You speed in and out of traffic (Even in a monsoon) to get to the next open store because of said repacks you found at the first store (That's how I got wave 9 ) - You spend more money on your toys instead of little insignificant items like food (saying, ahh its only just a cough) |

I don't mind asking for help. I take my 6 year old son with me. They think they are for him. It works. I have gotten my whole collection from stores. Well except for a few. Variant wraith, SE w/ black timber and the ssdc exclusives.

Instead of walking my dog for excercise, which I should do more, my exercise now consists of walking the length of the store to hunt Joes. By the way, why is it such a long hike to the toy aisles?

oh... Well lets see.. I've given up smoking so my excuse there is I can spend it on joes... I'm on a diet now too so all my soda and junk food money is going on joes... I try to save everywhere I can so I can be like ooh look I have extra $50 wonder whats online today.
The bad thing is I have hardly any room to put anything on display.

anyone else get these?i listed some,anyone have other symptoms to add to the list?
-when i'm at a store and i see some guy in their 20's - 30's making a beeline to the toy dept. I try to outrun them -when i'm at a super walmart i wish i had those skate shoes that kids wear so i can glide my way to the toy dept. Instead of taking the 3 mile hike -from clenching my fist so many times from the stress of not finding joes i'm starting to develop a kung fu grip more fierce than chuck norris'

None of you are real addicts.. because if you where. you would know the secret fast way to the toy department in most walmarts is through the vehicle service entrance where they do oil changes and tires..
Most walmarts are setup the same - you park there, walk in the customer door - past the lady that wants to know what kind of oil change you want.. straight past sporting goods and blam right into toys.. saves at least 2 minutes and no walmart greeter.. NOW THAT IS A TRUE ADDICT.. and you know your a joe addict when the wife has to put you on a strict budget and you start using your budgeted lunch / gas money for figures.. and get your friends to car pool to chip in for the gas you just used to get toys. |
