It's Record Store Day, Black Friday edition. Without even going outside, I snagged the limited edition of Kind of Blue. Upon refreshing the product page, it's now out of stock. Whoops.
I got anime via online sales, K-ON!! season 2 and the K-ON!! Movie, all of Toradora, and something random called Early Reins. something like 300 dollars worth of anime for just over 100.
I bought a new gaming PC. All told I probably wasn't saving much vs. building on my own but I'm busy and lazy and it's been a few years since I built my last one, and while fun and educational, it's not something I want to do again at the moment. I priced each component out seperately and came out over what I ended up paying with assembly before shipping so I'll call it a win.

I think I went a little over board with harddrives but I was well tired of removing things off this one in order to fit stuff.
I had to open my starbucks today. I was having a mini panic attack on way over because my store is accross the the street from a mall and I'd never done black friday here before. It was slow that my manager cut me 2 hours early.
There might be something to black friday starting mid thursday.
