The people of Walmart have a whole website dedicated to them. ( I don't know if that's a good thing ) Why not get some attention for the hard working and dedicated members of the GI Joe collecting community. :D

Those of you with kids - do you take them toy hunting with you?

My daughter accompanies me most of the time, and with her I don't get funny looks walking up to the register with an armful of toys.
I'm used to the odd looks though - even without my daughter, I'll walk up with two Nerf guns, some Joes and a couple of Hot Wheels cars, and pay the lady with a totally straight face. People won't say anything though - with my facial hair, shaved head, beer gut and predominantly dark wardrobe, I'm a little intimidating and people assume I'm a biker or something. :D
