I am a 29 year old adult male. I awoke this morning and drove straight to the TOYSRUS near me, just to try and get the limited edition Mustang hotwheels set. After finding none, I hit the nearest walmart where i found 1,2,4,5,6,7, and 8, but not #3. Nothing like pushing kids out of the way to get to the assorted hotwheels bin. at 9am. as a 29 year old.

I'm a petrosexual, and I don't care who knows.

The Mustangs are Walmart exclusive, so don't waste your time elsewhere unless you're looking for other things as well.

I came home with the above mentioned cars, and a C7 Stingray as well as an Alfa 8C

You're not alone, mate. I often sit on the floor to dig the big Hot Wheels bins I find in some supermarkets...

I'm five years older than you and I feel really weird doing it. Luckily I have a 6 year old and he makes it much easier and so much more fun to do it. You know the Hot Wheels that they keep at by the registers? He just dives in there regardless of the line or how congested with people checking out is. We've gone through 25 checkouts at Wal-Mart before in pretty impressive time :P

But when I'm by myself? Even though I could, and usually am, purchasing them for a child, specifically my child, it still feels like I'm someplace I shouldn't be. I'm definitely not pushing aside adults waiting to check out so I can look at the Hot Wheels!

I'm recommending this, because this is how I feel. And I just started getting into the Hot Wheels frenzy myself. But I don't care, I need that 50th Anniversary Mustang set.

The best part about being an adult? You get to do whatever the fuck you want whenever you want and no one can really judge you for it. Except for touching children. Don't touch children.

I don't do the hotwheels thing, but I've bought lego sets for myself (24 yr old male). I've had checkers at Target ask me if I was buying this for a nephew or son or whatever and I'm just like 'Pshhhtt no, it's for me. I like lego'
