ryanreactsWell, not really. I have purchased a few toys in the last few days, but they have all been cheap.
FOR EXAMPLE: Yesterday I went to Target to get a new pillow. I did not even look at any of the toy aisles, but I did walk past them . . . and just happen to notice that the Yellow Ninja Ranger action figure was on clearance! Less than eight dollars! Of course I took one off the shelf right away, and when I checked later I learned that she would have cost about twice as much on Amazon.
(Fun Fact: Aisha was the only one I really needed, but if I do decide to get any more of these figures, they made both Kim AND Kat, which is so cool that I kind of want to get them both! $21 for Kim, only $14 for Kat.)
Speaking of Amazon, though, I am planning to order something in the $20-$30 range on my way to work tomorrow.
Something like . . .
* Mirrorverse figures are pretty cheap at the moment! I could get both Belle and Genie for about $20.
* There are at least two non-Miles Across the Spider-Verse figures I must have. Currently, Spider-Gwen is $23 and Spider-Punk is $25. (Jessica Drew is $23, and I'll definitely get her at some point because she looks so cool . . . but I'm just a little annoyed that they didn't give her her bike. Did they see the film?)
* For just $22, less than $2 per figure, I could get the Doorables Villains set.
* Obviously, I might order one of those Pink Ninja Rangers I mentioned earlier. Only one, since this purchase is $30 max.
* This SABERTOOTH TIGER ZORD, oh my actual holy what now, it is beyond cool, wow. I just ordered a Megazord that I haven't even picked up yet, but still, there is a strong possibility of this one Zord being my next cheap gift to myself.
* Unfortunately but unsurprisingly, President Barbie is still $50. So I can't order her tomorrow, but can I stand to wait until her price decreases? I, um, I don't think I can, actually. I might even plan that fifty dollars into my budget before the movie opens!
* Technically this would be cheating by three dollars plus tax, but I could get two Doorables sets, Olaf Presents and Stitch, for $33.
More Money Math: Now that the sun is setting, I'm gonna go to the grocery store!
