Title: CACHED: Contests

Looks like Natsume is running a fan art contest! Not sure I'll enter since I haven't played ToTT yet, but maybe I'll be inspired to whip something up before the deadline...

... That alpaca's still going for like $20+ on eBay! Crazy! I wonder what Gamestop does when a person doesn't pick up their pre-order or pre-order bonus. Maybe they'd sell their extra(s) to me...?

I had some buddies that worked at GameStop and they kept swag in a drawer. On occasion I would go in and see what left overs they had. Snagged a few neat things that way.

Damn, I need to keep popping up in the store and get around to asking about it... They've definitely gotten to the point where several of them, including the manager (I think) recognize me as a regular (hopefully not in a negative way).

Oh man, @amauriel, it looks like Natsume will be giving away a plush pig with any purchase from their store during the holiday weekend (when they'll be doing sales).

But I think you might already have two...?

I only have one...but I missed the chance! (Haven't been online at all in a while, actually)...that might be another thing I'll have to eBay.....

I have a pig and a duck already. The duck came with Animal Parade.

I promised my husband: No eBay until after Christmas. I think he's afraid I'm going to buy something he's surprising me with...but he's giving me the whole "So we don't spend too much" hoopla I always give HIM.
