Hmm, the Borders near my house didn’t have “practically everything” (must be all sold out) but I did get The Small Back Room (I’ll see anything the Archers put out) and Tora! Tora! Tora! (for ten bucks, which is VERY worth it). I also picked up a Deerhoof CD…. yay….

I’m so frustrated no Borders near my house have had the Fanny and Alexander Box Set. I guess I will have to pay full price at Barnes and Noble.

My wallet was on my desk. I left the room for about a few minutes. I come back and my wallet is open on my bed and my dog is chewing on a $20 bill. I look and my wallet is not chewed. I had 3 $1 bills, 2 $5 bills, and a $20 and a $50. My dog had fully eaten my 50 and the 20 is more than half chewed. The ones and fives are untouched. My dog ate the $70 I had been saving. Also known as my Fanny and Alexander Box Set.

@Drew, now if you can only train him to shit in a cash register.
“How long will the borders sale last ?”
Borders is rapidly going out of business. The sales PROBABLY won’t end until they become full clearance and everything is eliminated. When I went in, I already knew there wouldn’t be a whole lot there because people would’ve already cleared out a lot of the neat stuff, and I wasn’t mistaken. However, there was a lot of neat stuff NOT on sale yet that will probably be in short time, so keep your eyes open.

Picked up THE WRESTLER on Blu ray.
RUS, I have internet access but no credit card due to my age. My parents think buying over the internet is unsafe and will not buy me anything online no matter how much cheaper it is. But I told my mom that the only reason I had a $50 in my wallet was because she said she would take me to buy it that day and then changed her mind and since I have an understanding mom she reimbursed me for half of what my dog did so I had enough for the set.
Just for everyone’s info, there are two stores in the southern California region called DVD Planet. You may know about it if you’re from here. You can check them out at www.dvdplanet.com. All their Criterions are 35% off from the suggested retail price. That’s where I always go to pick up Criterions. Just thought I’d put it out there.
Picked up IN THE REALM OF SENSES on Blu ray and NICKELODEON/LAST PICTURE SHOW on DVD.
New copy of Berlin Alexanderplatz for $60 which is awesome
