O/T Well, wish me luck!

overtherainbow, 10 November, 2009 at 08:49 Posted on Planning 0 9

I'm off to brave the crowds and pick up my daughter's boyfriends christmas pressie this morning... Call of Duty computer game. I've pre-ordered it so hope I don't have to queue too long. Just been on Sky news it's the fasting selling computer game of all time.... not my thing really but it's what he wants so he'll be made up with it.

Can honestly say hand on heart that I've never played a computer game in my life and don't really have any wish to either ?

    I got it YAY! Didn't have to queue either - apparently all the die hard fans queued at midnight last night ? Nearly keeled over when he told me the price though - eek! Still, he's worth it. Couldn't really wish for a better future son-in-law to be !

    That's good... I thought it would be sold out after all the hype it's been getting.

    My OH lives on his PS3 and in the end I thought well if you can't beat them.....

    And now I'm addicted to Call of Duty and have sent him to get it today ?

    I got it from Gamestation and they have an offer on of the book that goes with the game (not sure what it's for but...) and if you bought the book with the game, it was £9.99 instead of £15.99 so the sucker I am, I bought him that too.

    I was up at stupid o'clock this morning and after seeing it on the news ordered a copy from the Sainsburys website at £26 and by 7.55am I'd got an email to say it had been despatched already.

    The OH works so hard I don't really begrudge him the time he does get to spend on the PS3 (which is about once every 2 months) and it means I've started my Christmas shopping, yay!

    Susan.
