We live the life we love We love the life we Thrift

So Mario Kart 8 came out and with it the UK saw a spike in Wii U sales, Thats right while everyone was banging on about 900p vs 1080p on xbox one and PS4, Nintendo reminded everyone that they made a next gen console, It got all the kids nagging for one and all the adults realizing it wasn't on 3DS But you could still palm your kids of with the new one if only they tuck a second to read all the new features of the Wii U in a nut shell It plays all you old games and new ones and acts like a DS when you want to watch TV. If only they had called it the Wii 2 it would of needed no explanation.
So I picked up mario kart 8 from game for £49.99! As I was leaving the store I saw a box of posters on the counter, £50 and they didn't even offer me a poster so I helped my self, what happened to £37.99 anyways?

Few market pick ups £1 gets me San andreas and rugby league, This was because he said I can have the both for £1 so for the sake of a quid I will take the run off that is the shit rugby game no one wants and get my £2 cash or £3 trade on GTA.
Every time I see these XL kixx boxes I think its an amiga game but it always turns out to be IBM PC that would be great if I had a PC that old to play it on the original hardware still a cool find and I am guessing I will find a Old IBM one day so 50p well spent.

39p each in Cash convertors GTA again and family Guy the video game 39p is cheap most games are at the very least 80p/£1.20 trade so 39p is a good margin your going to come out alright if the games are not crap and under 50p.

Pac man World for 99p and Dracula 2 The last Sanctuary, the Resale for pac man is good as for the Dracula game I remember my mate stuart in school getting hold of the First one in this series and been pretty happy about it but back then any sort of survival horror filler was welcome to play between resident evils Guess I will try this one out.

Getting Drunk and going on the CEX website is something I would recommend, Few days after having a few beers these dropped on my door totally forgot about it so I ended up with Megaman X7 and Tittybangbang Series 2 surprise Thrift for me.


Bunch of GBA games For £1 each, All turned out to be copies, there are a few ways to tell the American rating logo is a good sign the label print quality and the way the label is of kilter are good clues and if they say Romnation.net When there booted up its a save bet they are not a genuiane Nintendo product, They still work the same its just like playing a DS game of a R4 Card.


Mate was Getting some CEX fodder ready the other night so I paided him the CEX cash price on these 3 games I didn't have I picked these 3 because the all have maps and my thinking was maybe a poster or two.
I was right Red Dead had a poster on the reverse of the map get in the other two where just normal maps so they didn't make it on the wall. That's it for this week bit dry out in the wild planing on going for a mega Thrift next day off I have until next time Thrifting ahoy!
