TIME TO BUY “It might have been that one with the Minecraft Lego mini figures with tools that didn’t resemble any Minecraft tools,” Kal said when I asked him if he remembered shopping at NJCE. “They might have been hoes.” “We bought a shit ton of Minecraft figures,” Luis said when asked if he remembered any purchases. “They had some that were pre-packed or you could get them à la carte. The kids were very specific in the ones they wanted, so we didn’t get pre-packed.” Betty wanted a bracelet to celebrate her love of Minnie Mouse, but the deal was better if we bought two, so Boom received one decorated for Pac-Man. —MV
