SJWFaqs 07/04/20 3:11:07 PM #41:	blu posted... Theres no way Id pay $60 for a game physical or digital. I usually spend around $20. I see the secondhand market for digital editions to mess with sales and make them unfeasible. Most of my game collection the past 3-4 gens has been made up of $10 or UNDER clearance titles bought from places like Circuit City, Toys R Us, Target, Kmart, Sears and even Walmart more recently. I can count on one hand the number of games I've spent $20 or over on in that time too. Unless I have cheap credit/gift cards at a place like Gamestop that cost me nowhere near that amount to amass then I just stalk the clearance cycles and buy at the cheapest price (if possible). I get all my books from the library, pretty much. Some counties have crap digital libraries but Ive been lucky. Also some libraries, like Philadelphia, will let you pay $50 to get a membership if youre not in county...I did mine for free being out of county and Im not sure how, it just sort of happened. I think the only things I've used our local libraries for is for internet access (when I didn't have it at home), printing up stuff like shipping labels (rather than buying a printer AND ink for 1-3 things a year) and the bathroom when I was out for the day and happened to pass by there. Although I have looked at their used/for sale shelf before there hasn't really been anything of interest to me on there and even then I think the prices were a bit ridiculous for the items. <cite>SJWFaqs posted [p:941669518] in Remember w...
