Do you find yourself buying something you never really wanted, just because it's marked down?
Or is it something you wanted before, but couldn't justify the normal price? I found myself buying some cheap stuff then realizing I didn't really want it to begin with. Sure it was a good value for the money, but it was something I never needed or even wanted. |

I had the Rhino in my cart at Target earlier this week since it was down to $12.48. Before I hit the checkout I realized I didn't really need/want this to begin with so I pulled it out and left it for someone else...

I generally load up on stuff I would buy at normal price or buy stuff that I cannot justify regular price. Example would be the Target Star Wars exclusives. $50 for a Rancor? No way, but I will take a few at $12.50. $40 Tie fighter? I bought 2 at 30% off - that seems the price it should have been in the first place. And I bought a few then and now Joe sets at $6.24. When it's that cheap I regret NOT buying it. But I don't buy stuff I have no interest in.

I picked up the castle from Prince Caspian on clearance for $29.99 plus I had a coupon for $10 off. At the time I was all excited because I wanted it for a Cobra castle, and eventually for Dr. Doom once he was finally released in the MU line.
After a few months, and some fun making a photo story here on the Tank with it, I new felt it was kinda silly to have a toy castle just sitting in my toy room gathering dust. In the end, I gave it to my girls who use it with their playmobil figures, and more often with a bunch of little plastic animals (don't ask me, I don't understand it either). It works better for them.

I don't buy many toys unless, they are on clearance or on sale, because I normally can't justify there regular price.

Got the Avatar Amp Suit. Was on the fence about it. Never seen the movie. When it went on clearance I picked it up. Figured it'd be good for Joes. Haven't opened it yet. Don't really care that I have it.
