Post Apoc shopping game!

[Master Rel]

I have done this a dozen or more times over the years, and this time I can use the internet which was not always available in the past.

Basically, I will provide a link to a catalog and you will have a limited budget.

If it is on that site then you have access to it.

Between these aspects you are to outfit yourself to survive whatever is out there...mohawk gangs looking to invade your 6, feral mutant mobs, zombies, etc.

Best of luck and enjoy shopping 


*****

The first link is the Mart-Wal site...you are shopping online but the idea is that you are running through a store that is a mess, the budget represents the limited time to shop, and if you want something else that would be in any store of that type that is not sold...like a shopping cart, then add it but keep in mind you are on the run...gotta keep moving.

http://www.walmart.com/

Your budget/time limit is $500

Looking forward to seeing your lists!

One issue I'm finding, is rifles and shotguns are in store pickup only, therefore there is no price.

Same with ammo

I work at Lowe's and I think of this same topic every time Im at work... Ive made so many weapons in my mind there... Im not a disgruntled employee I swear!

Yep...I found this also...if it is not on the online shopping cart as in a price available, then it is not there...which makes sense...the gun bunnies would come in and clean it out quick.

So for this first link...looks like guns are not in the cart

Great find! There was so much to look at I missed this one!  Which is the point...after all it was supposed to be a time limit of sorts...I have done this in the store with all of us running around with a pad and paper writing our lists, no budget but only 60 minutes...you had to be back up front at a meeting place at the 60 minute mark or get nothing...good times.

$16.97 ($342.27)

Because I like Darth Maul

You spent 3.394% of your budget on a Darth Maul toy...what does one say to this?

Huzzah you crazy nerf herder!

Point!

Your list looks really good, thanks for playing along...I know it wears you down after a couple minutes looking at everything lol.

The mask was a tad on the pricey side, but it could have its uses.

As far as Darth Maul goes, what is the point of being alone if you don't have anyone to talk to -)

BTW thanks to you, I think I may be doing this the weekend after this one with some friends.

Yeah, but I prefer a kukri

Kind of surprised that nobody commented on the megazord....

Buying a toy when you need to survive...it is lol

btw Rel, I love this game. Had my friend do the Walmart shopping last night and he did good then he realized he had no way to boil water or test water.

So now we are working on a very specific scenario and going to have 5 people shopping to compare, and discuss their strategy. But so far the consensus with us at work is hit the hills and avoid confontation whenever possible.

I'm keen on hitting Mammoth Cave personally (probably a week away walking through the forrest and avoiding Nashville).
