Yup, feel free to write your latest mugg hunting adventure, whether you bought a new mugg, or not, found 100 grievous at TRU? found a Venom at your grocery store? Saw the newest wave at UO???? Go ahead and post it

Ok, so here's mine

Today I went with a friend on a healthy mugg (or hot wheels, in his case) hunting trip to several stores (mainly Wal-Marts) on my work-free morning, so after the 3rd wal mart we visited we found a surprise waiting for us! Toyland was finally open!! I'm pretty sure you all know what Toyland (Juguetilandia in Spanish) is, something like a huge toy warehouse at the back of the store.
So we went (almost) running to Toyland, he rushed straight to the Hot Wheels, and me of course straight to Muggs.
After carefully seraching among every mugg I found an Emperor Palpatine (In a Darth Vader box, unfortunately) and 3 stormtroopers, which I checked really close to pick the one with the best paintjob ;).
So I picked those 2 for a total of 400 pesos (around 40 dlls) and my friend picked 4 cars for 226 (about 20 dlls or so) and went to... humm... how do you call it when you "set aside" a toy so you can pay it little by little? If anyone could help me with this I'd really appreciate it n_n

So that's my latest mugg hunting story, and I also made a bid on a Darth Maul that was up in "Mercadolibre" for 10 bucks =D

P.S: Please do forgive me if my grammar sux or something U_U

I think the term your trying to think of is 'layaway" perhaps.
Anyway, my latest Mugg story happened today...

So last week, as some of you may know, I stopped at a Target in my area I had never been to before. There waiting for me was a Spiderman (Red/Blue), and Ghostrider. I snagged both and headed to around 6 other stores. But today, I went back and they had restocked with a few different ones. Most of them I had but their was one Captain America. I grabbed him and bought him as soon as possible :) I've been looking for him since I started collecting Muggs.
After that I hit another Target, which had only Wolverine and Human Torch with nothing in the back. A Toys R Us where I finally bought Doc Ock cause he was in good condition. A Walmart that had no Muggs :( Wouldn't check the inventory for me either :(. And a Borders that had only one Wolverine.
It was a big day with some let downs but a great reward :)

Ohh, how could I forget! I got SIX VENOMS!!!
