I’m sorry… I just did…
This morning while at work and chatting on email with DR, we agreed on 2 things: No more buying chips or chocolate if we were serious about losing weight before our upcoming trip AND no more wasting money on things we don’t need and save as much as we can before leaving too…
Well, I didn’t buy chips or chocolate.
But c’mon man, I work so close to HMV, how am I supposed to walk in there, see all the new releases and not be tempted… IT’S TUESDAY NEW RELEASE DAY for fuck sakes!!! But still, I was strong enough to not buy anything until I made my way out and I found this “limited edition” deluxe box set of the complete series of LAND OF THE GIANTS for $21 only… THAT’S 21 FUCKING DOLLARS!!! When that box set came out it was $299 and then after a while they sold it for $199 for the longest time… and now, I guess to make room for more inventory of crap that might of might not sell, they must be getting rid of the 50 or so extra box set they had. For $21, this is what they gave me:
Anyone in their 40′s will definitely remember that Irwin Allen gem. I used to live for Tuesday afternoon at 5pm so I can turn on to French CBC and watch Land Of The Giants… I so wanted to be one of those small people living amongst giant things…
If you don’t know what the show is (shame on you) take a look at this:
But still… I broke a promise… I hate myself.
(Dr… forgive me? It really is the gift of entertainment that I give you)
I love that TV1 pretty much geared the ad to be full of filthy double entendres, is that an Australian TV1 commercial, or does the Canadian/American voice over guy sound exactly the same?
Either way, for $21 how could you say no? Clearly you didn’t and provided you refrain from the purchase of chips or chocolate then it’ll all be okay in the grand scheme of things!
Really, Lemon?
While I was lying in bed with a gut full of swine flu you brought this into our home?!
That keychain is mine!
