Crazy plant lady strikes again. Rescued a slightly battered chrysanthemum plant that was the last of it's kind in the garden centre for £2 - bargain. Honestly, that part will grow back next year so I thought, why not?

My most recent purchase was actually for my daughter. Got her a Baby Yoda shirt so we can both wear Star Wars shirts at the 40th Anniversary screening of Empire Strikes Back tomorrow night.

So I coincidentally got a few Mario games recently. I had to strike on 3D All-Stars for obvious reasons, but the other two I've been waiting for a drop and it finally happened some time ago at Gamestop and I had such a weird and awkward experience with the newbie handling my transaction. At first, he was trying to tell me they didn't have any in stock despite the website saying otherwise, then he told me no other location has them either, which made me think he was just trying to get rid of me because he couldn't work the system properly. So I look around the store, find some of their opened "new" copies on the shelves and I ask him politely "so are these just display cases" and he looks down at them nervous and says "oh no, these are actually used." Normally, I'd agree, because opened "new" games are a f*cking scam, but in this particular instance, I was willing to bite the bullet and I just told him straight up that those are new copies, they say so on the sticker. Luckily, he found 2 sealed copies in the drawer behind him, but if that wasn't enough, I was also picking up a used copy of Sonic Lost World on 3DS and in the midst of this hassle of a transaction, I never noticed the guy never put the cartridge in the box and just sold me an empty case.

Also decided to keep my Playstation library limited to exclusives and began converting some of my third party games to Xbox just to make things easier going forward as I used to keep certain franchises locked to Playstation based on how well I felt they suited the brand like Crash and Devil May Cry,

And I finally found this on sale for like 40 dollars on Prime Day.

Latest purchase on my card was $31 in Panera Bread. Only problem. I never bought $31 worth of Panera Bread. Or any Panera Bread. So I guess it's time for a bank dispute and a new card XD

I bought a PS4 controller to replace my husband's janky one and I invested some money in my brother's new business if that counts.
