Oh no...
If anyone's seen my haul from Hobby Lobby's sale this week, you'll know why I'm saying this. See below if you haven't:

Turns out that while I bid on a Millenium Falcon on eBay with a max bid of $15 (I know what you're thinking: "He ain't gonna win a MF with a bid of $15!") I wasn't expecting to win. Mind you, I fully expect to pay for what I bid on, but I honestly thought someone was going to snipe me for it. Here's a link to the kit:

Yes, a bit of box damage, but I HIGHLY doubt it did anything to the kit inside. We all know how much extra space RC2 leaves in its boxes. I cannot believe I won it for $13.50. Yes, it's the new release. But $13.50? And here's the kicker: I don't have to pay shipping because the guy is 18 minutes from me! As a favor to him, I'm paying in cash and picking up a few photoetch sets while I'm there to grab the MF.
Best part? My wife isn't mad at all, she's happy I've gotten so many great deals. As a favor to her, I'm not buying ANYTHING else until I build every last kit I currently own. She deserves a night out on the town for her tolerance of my recent spending to get back into the hobby (habit?) LOL.
