Instead of just buying plain tealights all the time, I have taken up various scents while they were relatively cheap in bulk. Vanilla pumpkin has been wonderful, thus far.

Other bulk purchases include two boxes of hot apple drink mix, assorted import teas, four sacks of almonds, and an unhealthy amount of instant noodles. Strange, because I rarely eat that kind of stuff unless I am very pressed for time.

Edit:
Oh. I suppose my non-game stuff really stands out in this thread. So here:

(I got the Ghost Black.)

This one came for free:

Debating on if I want the blu-ray or DVD, would the subs and menus on a blu-ray be legible on a standard def tv? Though I'd probably watch it dubbed.

Edit: actually reading up on it, it sounds like the masters for FLCL were in standard def, which I suppose shouldn't come as a surprise, may as well go for the DVD then.

This....

And one of these to play it on (although this was a b'day present from my wife)

I already have the Ultimate Collection DVD box set (which has nearly tripled in price since I got it), but I like the idea of Blu-Ray having different region protection than DVDs (my import PS3 can play both US and Jap Blu-Ray movies).

Which is still a bit of a shame, as I REALLY want this:

"The Complete Series". At only six eps., it would be hard to make incomplete really.
Why not get a region-free player so it doesn't matter where your DVDs/BDs come from?

Also, that looks exactly like my PSP, Phobos.

Oh, almost forgot. I bought this:

There isn't much in it that's news to me, but hey, certification will hopefully help me find a better job.

You'd be surprised.

At the height of American Anime companies' DVD costs a few years back, FLCL was released in THREE SEPARATE DVD CASES (about $20 each).

I saw Summer Wars up for pre-order too, I've been meaning to see that, so I ordered that too, got the DVD since it's cheaper and I don't have an HD TV yet anyway.

Also NA and Japan being under the same region code? I suddenly like the Blu-Ray format a whole lot more.

I wouldn't pay that for the whole thing. But I wasn't too impressed with the anime's madness/lack of sense.
