Here's my dilemma, I received some cash for my birthday and of course I was going to use it to buy a watch (currently looking at the Timex/Maratac analog compass - an ideal watch for camping/hiking/Scouting) and a new watch box.  The latest Zippo State Quarters set (2006) was just released this past week, limited to 1000 sets worldwide and I have all the previous sets.

I only have enough cash to do one or the other coyote2.gif

Arrrgh!

Cheers,
Griff

you can always get a timex. but the zippo's will disappear fast, increase in value and you'll kick yourself for missing out.

I think I may just head on over to the 'Bay and hit "Buy it Now" :D

Thanks Sean!

The kids would love that!  Though they are getting a Disney trip in a month, just in time for the beginning of Star Wars weekends!  That is all I hear about, LOL.
Plus we decided to take them to Discovery Cove when we are down there.  I need a new watch for swimming with the dolphins!

Cheers,
Griff
