This week has brought me some good stuff. At the beginning of the week I trawled though the shops where I work, and I finished up today doing the rounds of my home town.

PS1
Time Crisis,
TOCA Touring Cars, GBP 1.99 each
Warcraft II, GBP 2.50
Colin McRae Rally, GBP 1.79

PS2
Final Fantasy X guide, GBP 3.99
Rune Viking Warlord,
Chaos Legion,
Maximo vs Army of Zin, GBP 1.99 each

XBox
Unreal Championship, GBP 1.99
Hunter the Reckoning: Redeemer, 99p

PSP
Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops,
Metal Gear Solid Portable Ops Plus, GBP 10 each

A couple of the games (Unreal Championship & Rune Viking Warlord) I already had, but they were missing the manuals. These were complete, so I was more than happy to pick them up at these prices. The deal on the PSP games wasn't that good, the normal Gamestation offer of 2 for 20 quid, but I've been holding off buying these for too long, and I am a huge Metal Gear Solid fan.
That brings the total for this week to GBP 41.21
and the total for this year to GBP 180.51, but that also includes eBay purchases and the like.

Inspired by NES_Rules posts I'd like to document my hunts too. Whilst I don't spend quite as long at it as NES_Rules appears to,  I've been blogging these on my own site, but I think including them here is also appropriate. I'm not proposing to copy all the previous entries over, so I'll start here with my latest one.
