It's a box. It's a set. It's a complete box set.

Those who know me well know that I am not an impulse buyer. I tend to think, overthink and most often rethink purchases with the end result of talking myself out of ponying up the bucks. For example:

My stereo... the amp and speakers were purchased second hand in 1985 and they remain the only ones I've ever bought. I've gone through 3-4 different turntables since then and don't have one now. My CD player(s) have all been portables that I've plugged in to the stereo and I've gone through about 4-5 of those since 1985, only the first of which did I spend more than $100 on (it was a first gen Panasonic bought at Magic Forest around 1989-ish for, I think, about $350) I've never bought a DVD player... the two I have were cast offs from an upgrader. I've never bought new furniture. My television is an obelisk that weighs about 50 kg. My computer is a ten year old Mac I paid $75 for.

You get the point.

Still this past Sunday I was at Future Shop picking up some computer accessories for work and I rounded the corner into the DVD box sets. And there it was. I was already spending around $100 for the other items and it seemed the time to let the knee jerk. So I tucked it under my arm and brought it up to the cash.

I regret nothing.
