MUTHAFUKIN TREASURE HUNTS!!!!

Life continues to vomit up happy surprises. Plumb's Market is a small western Michigan independent grocery  store chain that carries Spartan Food brands and has awesome meat. The other day they had a huge slab of steak for three bucks a pound and they slice it for free. Now my freezer is loaded with meat for the summer.

Well, frozen summer meat is not what this is about. Today is about Hotwheels Treasure Hunts, the rarest and most collectible toy cars out there, if you can find them. Well, I found me two of these hot little monkey nuts in a ten for ten sale shipper at Mr. Plumb's meat market. The race inspired classic Datsun 240z 2011 Treasure Hunt, number 12 of 15 is a wonderful thing to behold. Bask in it's flame red and blue racing stripes and bold 24 decal adorning it. The green stripe on the right side of the cardboard backer is what sets it apart from the millions of ordinary Hotwheels out there and the green indicates MONEY. And Like money, these toys are not for children, they are for the loving embrace of caring adults. Children would ruin these rare collectibles by opening their packages and playing with them. Tiny hands would maul these precious jewels into worthless hunks with every paint scratching sandbox adventure or I-75 axle bending high speed crash. No, these toys hate children and found me for protection. Their green striped cardboard backs called out to me as their savior. And, I will save them...right up until they sell on Ebay.
