Stuff I've found on my trip
So I'm from Toronto but I've been in the US for the past few months visiting my girlfriend. In that time I've been all over the state game hunting and I've come up with a few good things so far.
A friend of mine from my WoW guild decided to come out and visit while I was in the states. When he found out I was into collecting old games he's like oh I have a pile of those in the basement I'll give you them. Going through them was the common stuff you'll see, Mario/DH, Silent Service etc. Oh and these
Found this at a local pawn shop for 1$, game sucks but whatever
4$ from a store in town.
2$ on this one. It was COVERED in stickers, I mean covered. Rental store codes, the alarm sticker, everything. The only thing visible from the top was half the word Flintstones. I knew it was this one and not the movie version but the person selling probably checked the price of the movie one since literally 80% of the label was covered. I left the goo gone on a bit too long and damaged the label a bit but as ugly as it looks right now its leaps and bounds better than being plastered in stickers.
Snagged this one from a game store in town thats 99% of the time on the ball with their pricing. I'm guessing they thought this was the normal SMB and not the more expensive one. 2$ on this one
Couple of eBay BIN snipes. Got SM RPG for 15$ and FF7 for 9.
Going out this weekend in pursuit of more before I have to leave so here's hoping I can update this with some good finds!

Apologies for the upside down photos, I have no idea why it's doing it. I even rotate them in Windows and they still upload upside down
Photobucket loves to do that, it's really annoying. There's a setting you have to change on your account that will make it stop auto-rotating images. Also, you can go back into your Photobucket account and rotate these images you posted here. You won't have to re-post the links, they will be auto corrected here.
Everything you've posted has been an excellent deal.

Awesome, thank you so much that was driving me nuts.

Just curious, where in Wisconsin were you able to grab those?
I'm not sure how to link my own posts but http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?StartRow=481&catid=5&threadid=53244 my post is about 7 down explaining the stores I frequent in this area.
