I live near one in Minneapolis and they sell them quite cheaply. I don't remember what user bought one from me, but at $2 I actually made a profit!

EDIT: g-force's brother John, that's who!
we dont have any stores like that near where i live, up where samus is there MIGHT be. at $1.50 i considered that a hell of a deal, at anime expo i was paying 4$ a bottle, and off the internet it was something close to 3$

No, RAMUNE. You must do this. Actually, if you know where to look it's cheap. Try the little Asian grocery stores you see in bigger towns. I live near one in Minneapolis and they sell them quite cheaply. I don't remember what user bought one from me, but at $2 I actually made a profit!

I can't remember how much it is by my house. I usually get the huge packs now. I'll check the price sticker on my monster pack when I get home.

We managed to snag a copy of Bust-A-Move for SNES and Gloria blasted through about thirty levels before the day was done, so she was just fine :D

My girlfriend saw that picture and was all "ohhh, they're such a cute couple!" It's nice that you share some interests.

i was the only one who didn't get any sleep the first night. so i decided to take pics of people sleeping...

on second thought, that might've been driven by sleep deprivation.

and you don't look bad sleeping. the flash on my camera makes everyone looks terrible.

Relax
Odds are pretty good that some crazy guy named John isn't going to doing something weird over you while you sleep.

Ok, my turn for pics. BTW, I'm thinking of merging these 2 MGC threads, which I should have done a long time ago. Any objections?

A mere half of the epicness that is the BH Suite
Image

The geOMG (from Triton, of course)
Image

BHE Booth
Image

Ben... being, well, Ben...
Image

G-force in the process of fixing an Xbox 360. Get a haircut!
Image

Image

Some guy with the best beard I've ever seen. Looks like krafter is checking out Ben's ass, too (sorry, we all know it's a picture taken at just the wrong time, like every one of me :P )
Image

Awesome N64p, only took 4 mobos!
Image

Sega CD I fixed for some random guy that came up to the booth (thanks Marshall for the tips with the fuse... I was thinking voltage regulator, and haven't seen many fuses like what was on that)
Image

Ben with his 360 Laptop... before finding it didn't want to work in front of all those scary people
Image

Metallica Man X and wallydawg (I think?) dremeling, I think it was
Image

Me 'n samus just being buds (only took 2 shots before I realized that I had turned off auto-focus for some reason)
Image

My camera is better than all of yours!!! :P
