I'm not going to blame anyone for not believing this story to be true, but I'm going to tell it anyway. Here in the United Kingdom, we have a supermarket called Tesco's - my cousin worked (and still does) there. In the summer of 2011, me and my uncle went to go and drop her off for work, I asked if we could quickly check out the wrestlers and we did. This was a Tesco I'd never been in before. The WWE section was a small section on the end of an aisle, loads of Mattels, but staring straight at me was a WWE Ruthless Aggression series 41 Brian Kendrick - what the hell? I picked it up and looked around and couldn't see any other figures from the set or any tags for that figure - so we took it to customer services. They scanned it and it came up as £0.18! I was given a receipt, but I managed to bloody lose it which I am gutted over. I swear this story is true, but I fully understand the "receipt or it didn't happen" rule. I 100% guarantee promise this happened - and I never break promises!
Anyways, thought about it the other day and was wondering - what Jakks did you pick up at a good price?

Well, I was hoping that an Off The Ropes JBL that has been at the local Rite Aid would go on clearance, since some of the early Mattels went 75% off at one store. I picked up a series six Dibiase and a best of 2010 Cena at one on the other side of town, so I did a trawl of all the local Rite Aids and apparently that was the only store clearing stock. So instead of a 4 dollar figure, I take JBL to the counter where it rang at 16.99. And it is still there.

I remember a lot of cheap adrenaline two packs. I got the Hardy/Taker one for £5.

Bought the Highlanders for $6 or so early-'10 because the clips on one of my sets inexplicably started breaking.
