Do you ever NOT look?

We all check out our local Walmarts and TRU's on a fairly regular basis. The normal toy hunt is not what I am talking about here.

You go to Walmart to pick up some milk. You are at TRU shopping for a birthday gift for a little girl's birthday party your child is invited to. You just checked the store yesterday and there was nothing new.

Can you fight that internal urge that is telling you "you never know... There might be something new there"?

I know I am a weak weak man and find myself checking the TF section no matter what the reason is that brought me to the store.

How about you?

Re: Do you ever NOT look?

I can top that, if I am going anywhere near TRU or Walmart I stop by and look at toys... then I wander about the rest of the store. Then I go BACK to the toys...

Re: Do you ever NOT look?

I am always looking every time now, ever since the time I didn't and I missed out on snagging a couple of Titanium G1 Ultra Magnuses at my local Zellers

Lesson learned!

Do you mean to tell me I'm getting my groceries at Wal-mart, now?

Oh how far I have fallen

Also no
Basically if I'm out at a mall or strip mall or whatever I'm either going to look for toys, or will pop in anywhere that might have them to do so. You never know, today COULD BE THE DAY

Always...EVERYTIME.

It is harder now too, what with WalMart making the store bigger and the milk on the other side of the figgin store.

Re: Do you ever NOT look?

If I'm in the store anyway, why not check out the TF section. A 2 minute flyby can save you some disapointment later and maybe a return trip.

I use "every day items" as an excuse to go look for toys, so... yes

Re: Do you ever NOT look?

I always make a bee line to the TF section. When I find nothing new, I check around the other toy areas for hidden TFs.
