Picked this up on an impulse buy yesterday while checking out at the grocery store. Good thing I didn’t see the price was $12.99 until after I got home. Kinda felt violated after seeing the price I paid.

LOL. Almost... also picked up a tin of Altoids. :)

Looking at the pic I posted I think my copy was slightly different. I kinda remember the new Pennywise was front and center, not Jack Nicholson.
Was just about to ask if it was alternate cover, as the ones here are blue. Oh wait-- your is EW mag, I think the other was a diff special edition magazine- kingricefan had bought one.

And, just think of the cost as a TOOL to use while building your SK Universe.

Maybe I did get a different special edition magazine. I just picked that picture from the internet because it looked a lot like the one I got. And mine is red, also.

The only tolls needed to build my SK Universe was a screwdriver and wrench. It's wooden and has shelves. I may have to take out extra homeowners insurance for this magazine. ;):)

I think that's the picture. Now I'm wondering if my cover was actually blue and not red. The wife was glad to see there's a story about that King adaptation on Hulu. She and the youngest daughter are arguing about Netflix and Hulu. The wife wants to get Hulu and cancel Netflix and the kid wants to keep Netflix. I'm staying out of that fight.

Speaking of, I went to a local dvd/game rental store the other day, it wasn’t nearly as big as blockbusters are but it was still neat. I bought a copy of John Carpenter’s “In the Mouth of Madness” and they even cleaned the dvd at the counter for me, woah.

Wow we don't even have any smaller type dvd or game rental stores anymore here. Just those redbox vending machines.
