So, I was a child of the '90s, which probably makes me one of the younger folks here. Those of you who either were kids or had kids at that time might remember the Batman Animated Series that ran in the early-mid 90's (now that I'm older, I realize it's wasted on kids...). Li'l Sis, Li'l Bro, and I watched it religiously every day at 4:30pm. A couple years ago, I saw a box set of the complete series at Best Buy and had to restrain myself from running and squeeing down the aisle. But alas, it was expensive, we were poor and I couldn't get it. And then when I found out it went out of print, I cried (ok not really. But I was very very sad).
I found it again on Amazon. But sellers there were charging a rediculous amount of money for it. $200+ even for heavily used items. So again I shed a tear or two since chances of ever owning my beloved Batman were looking slimmer and slimmer.
And today, a light appeared! Another website has it brand new, factory sealed, never seen the light of day for $66! I feel a glimmer of hope since Friday is pay day and I worked a LOT of hours last week. It should be a pretty fat paycheck. We've got some catching up to do on some bills, but surely there would be $66 left over.
I called hubby and told him of my cunning plan. Well, I asked him if we had $66 laying around that I might obtain my Bat MacGuffin. Quantities are limited afterall. He told me to just buy it and we'll figure out how to pay for it later (which is very unlike him. Will have to thank him properly later
). HAPPY DANCE OF JOY!!! 
Yes, I am a geek and I am proud. Now to just get Batman Beyond and Justice League....
