ooo corsets! A favorite article of clothing of mine. Do you have real corsets or ones that imitate their look (meaning they aren't made of metal or plastic).

Books! I read really fast and it's my 'relaxation therapy' lol
Usually I'm on several different series at a time. I have been reading The Wheel of Time, Anita Blake series, Meredith Gentry series, Dean Koontz and a few more.. I have to wait 'till they come out in paperback since I go through them so fast, hard-bound books would be too costly.

Movies, I don't watch regular TV but I loooove watching movies. I buy 3 to 5 movies a week. ;p

Toys for the kids, between my boyfriend and myself we have 3 kids. Two boys and a girl. I love getting them things to do. We have a Wii and boy can that get expensive...*sweat*

Carnival glass. I collect antiques and I love the carnival glass and depression glass. I have a silver fetish too...*ohhh shiny*

Food! I do like to cook and a 5 person family can really go through some food. Plus, I really like to be creative in the kitchen. Sometimes it almost more expensive to made big dinners than to go out to dinner.

Pixels...lol I have actually spent more on some of the sites I belong to than I care to admit. :shock: It's a good cause, right?

Yeah totally, afterall people spend tons of money on recreation when it comes to sports/hobbys. So if you enjoy different websites donating isn't strange since that's your recreation, might as well get the best experience out of a website you spend a lot of time on, I say!

Me? I spend all my money on non-school food. Since I'm in college, that's a necessity. That and school books. What I don't spend I'm saving for when I study abroad.

As to how I get my money, right now I don't have a job, so all of it comes from the monthly allowance my Mom gives me. Believe me $100 a month isn't enough.

Urboros 03-31-2008 06:22 PM

I spend some of my money on pixel items <.<U I should really stop spending my cash, and save up for another convention.

D-Yoop 03-31-2008 06:58 PM

I spend wayyyy too much of my money on CD's. Also DVD's actually.
And Gaia Online, I should stop doing that.

Uber-Kitten 03-31-2008 07:09 PM

FABRIC D: I hoard it, I swear. I have an entire (rather big) closet that is full up and I still want to go to Amish country and buy more! It's really cheap there, got 9 yards of suiting for 20 bucks >3>

That and food. Oh god food. College sucks like that.

Rider686 03-31-2008 07:15 PM

I like to spend my money on random trinkets and stuff. Sometimes video games but mostly Snowboard gear

Rider686 03-31-2008 07:15 PM

BTW this Menewsha thing...ROCKS!!!

Rheks 03-31-2008 07:26 PM

I'm kinda new so I don't know much, but I did learn the other day to try to not double post. As in instead of posting back to back try to edit the intial post. ^_^ Just a warm reminder 'cus I wouldn't want you to get reported to a mod.

I pretty much never spend my money, except occasionally I buy the super good yet small and expensive cookies from my school. Also, if my parents weren't so against it, and if I had more time to go to the bookstore and such, then it'd probably be manga too.

P:

slickie 03-31-2008 07:54 PM

ya i spend my money mostly on cigarettes and gas.
because gas prices are $3.45 a gallon and rising, most of my money goes there. Then I usually spend the rest of my money on my boyfriend and food.

Lapin Blanche 04-01-2008 12:21 AM

Basketball t-shirts: I cna just never have enough. I don;t know why, but I just love my basketball t-shirts. They have sweet quotes on them or pictures of my favorite team's logo. You know, the good stuff.

Schoolbooks. D: Half my paychecks have gone to buying schoolbooks!

As for selfish money, however--beads. I simply cannot deny my deep, selfish need for beads. Metal, plastic, glass, bone, wood, you name it...I love it. I have boxes of them I've bought, a few each paycheck, and it's getting ridiculous. But I can't stop. ;_;

aeriise 04-01-2008 03:06 PM

Books, art supplies, soon to be Menewsha, more books, food, clothing, well designed things, more books, more food.

According to my mother (and I kind of agree XD) I spend too much money on books. Manga, Literature, "How to Draw" books, things like that. I have at least 700 dollars' worth in books. I can't help it D8

Ghost of Ireland 04-01-2008 03:16 PM

Most of my money goes to books and clothes. I'm always buying skirts and t-shirts. As far as manga goes, I only have enough to fill up two shelves on my bookcase but I have enough books, that I need 3 bookcases. My dad's just as bad, he has 5 bookcases and boxes of books in the garage. Hmm, one day, we'll turn the kids (My Nephews that now live 3 states away) into a library.

Rusalka 04-01-2008 04:13 PM

Most of my money goes towards books, any sort of book fiction, non fiction, manga, books on writing...

I read way too much. It's helped now that I have a job at a bookstore and have 30% off of the price now but still spend most of my paycheck there. ><

sabishisa 04-01-2008 04:53 PM

Video games and music @[email protected] Between systems and new games, video games get waaaaay too much of our money ^^; And music is right behind that.

I'd say bills but, you know, you sorta HAVE to pay those X__X

This post to reminds me.. I should really balance the amount of books and clothes I buy. I seriously need some more clothes. Most of the ones I have, I don't really like D8;

Mendokuse 04-01-2008 10:50 PM

Uhmmm.
Sanrio stuff.
My room is almost like a Sanrio store.
Well, I have lots of anime but my mom owned an anime store.
So I inherited everything, which is now in my room.

But with Sanrio stuff...
<3 I love that stuff to death.
i recently spent 100 dollars at this store I found at the tradecenter in my hometown.

:'D
Hot fries, too.
I buy a package every day before school. @[email protected];

Hmm, what else.

CD's. While people download all of their music.
I like to buy mine.
Because I like the pretty little pamplets, and all the cool stickers.
:3

I suppose tha---
NO.
VIDEO GAMES.

I freaking love them.
I spend at least half of everything I get, period.
On video games.

I also spend a lot of my time playing them. :'D
