And dolls. :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
Holy heck. ( that amounts to around $350 if any of you are wondering)
So that includes paradise estate and I did sell stuff to pay for that...that makes it not so bad...right..RIGHT? :yikes:
-
You have a pony problem. Absolve it by sending me some.
-
*pat pats* its ok. but yep. that alays makes it better selling stuff to make room for more pony stuff!
paradise estate is huge in its own right. so techainly you didnt buy that much pony stuf.. look at it that way!
-
I love the way you are trying to justify to yourself the spend! I do that all the time, with everything! I dont know why we feel so guilty about treating ourselves. Well done! xx
-
You don't wanna know what I spent last month... biggest pony total for me EVER, but I got some really fun Foreign ponies out of it and I had the money set aside just for pony buying. I didn't imagine that I'd spend that much in a year, let alone a single month.
:drunk:
If you are happy and you can afford it then that is all that matters. :)
:enthralled:
-
i uh,,,i have put myself in a "no buy" holding pattern after the last month and a half with funds being spent on both pony and pony con related stuff including a few new things to make myself more presentable while working security at the con...so i consider it pony related...lets say i w ish i only spent 350$ hell id be happy if i only spent DOUBLE that..but im afraid to say..its alot more than double
-
I mean, yeah I can afford it, I'd never spend what I didn't have... But I'm more thinking 'I could have saved that for ponycon weekend' but hang on... That's more pony spending anyway! My motto is: buy now, think later :P We're all doomed! XD

:lmao: ROFL you sound like me, I'm always telling friends to treat themselves, I'm a terrible influence :lol:

I don't even want to add up what I spent on ponies this month and the last ha. Pleased to know that I'm not the only one addicted to buying MLP's :biggrin:

You know it eventually extends to dolls and then other 80s toys? Trust me :P
-
I don't know how much I've spent, but I did spend just over £100 on 18 ponies from eBay in one go. On the plus side quite a few will be sold on, but I did feel a bit nutty spending that much in one go!
-
wel if it makes you feel better i spent over 100 on the first day of the pony con. o.o
>.> i ran out of money too quickly XD
-
This is just like the counting ponies thread for me. I spent too much.
-
I'm all "caught up" on my pony buying needs... for now.... until I stumble across a G3 or G2 that I HAVE TO HAVE!
...
no really, i'm waiting for FiM's Crystal ponies... really. yeah. there i can wait. phew. XD
-
I'm in the same boat! The last two months have left me broke before my paychecks because I can't... stop... buying... ponies!!! :drunk:
-
partypony..buy now think later..yeah.. I totally know that!
Don't ask what I spent the last month..my all time grail (Moc Sunburst) showed up and there have been lots of other ponies before ...
Meanwhile I never look back and I will neverknow what I spent in a month...it's better that way..
-
Uhh, yeah, I had a bit of a pony-binge this month, as well! Hadn't really gotten much in a while, and I'd been waiting patiently for my birthday to roll around in order to have some spare pony funds, and when it finally did... Let's just say I didn't waste much time! To be fair, I'd been waiting for this stuff for months (the TRU collector's sets, as well as the BB sets), and I really don't have anything I'm wanting to buy until probably well after the holidays. I felt a little guilty, but at the same time, I almost never treat myself to stuff, even when I do have money. I'm the type of person who feels incredible guilt from spending, so I usually put my money away and spend very little of it on myself. That's probably a good thing, but I sometimes wish I had actually gotten something for myself. This was the first time I'd really treated myself to a big spending spree! Hey, if you can afford it once and a while, then why not? Sometimes it's nice, actually!

*simply refuses to add up*
Worth it for PE alone sweetie!
-
Wow!
:faint: :faint: :faint:
-
does it help to know I actually spent more than that... dreding the day my hubbie finds out which will be soon no doubt.
But the ponies are so worth it, I mean just look at them ; )
-
I often look at the money I spend on ponies and think "Hmm, I could have gotten a Rainbow Dash Plushie from Spacevoyager with all that money I spent on *stuff*"
:I

Ohhhh yes....bill paying day is coming soon, as is WWIII in my home once hubby sees all the PAY PAL purchases. Sometimes I wish I only collected G4's- at least I can "hide" those by only buying them at Target and putting them on the Target cc!! Lol
-
Wow! :)
But if it's something you love, it makes you happy and oesn't bankrupt you completely then it is totally worth it. I have months where I overspend on ponies or Disney or something. And then months when I'm very good. It is jut all about balance. :)
-
A ha! I saw the title of this thread and knew it had to be you!!! But you deserve to be spoiled. :hug:
I'm not even about to total up the amount I've spend on ponies and MH dolls this month. :lookround:
-
I almost spent that on one pony this month. It is the most I've ever spent on a single pony before, by a lot. I am like Summer, I've spent more this month than I thought I'd spend all year. It has been insane. And last month was similar. In the past 2 months I think I bought 2 nirvanas with their boxes, a MOC g1, and a bunch of comic con stuff, just to start the list. I think I have a problem.

Haha! Yes that's what I tell myself XD and omg I imagine your spend is probably double or triple mine :lmao:
Post Merge: August 29, 2012, 02:26:28 AM
Xeevee if it makes ya happy then it's fine but if it's an overspend just spend nothing the next month and then it balances out :biggrin:
-
If I had that sort of free cash to spend on ponies then heck yeah I would spend it :D
I hate budgeting, at the moment apart from swaps I am on a pony and doll hiatus (failed a couple of times though! :blush: ) until I can get my finances sorted out, think I shall be fine after Xmas, but it means I may have to give Ponycon a miss unless I win the lottery :cry:
-
:lmao: your so bad *spank*
*covers over all my new ponies from this month*
-
I've spent a couple hundred dollars on ponies in a month before. XD
-
Somebody seize this woman's bank cards immediately! :D
I would spend £204 on ponies every day if I could. Congrats on getting the Paradise Estate!
-
That makes me feel much better! :lol:
-
But it's ponies :P And Paradise Estate, which isn't a splurge it's an... investment. XD
I've been very, very good with how much I've spent on ponies and pony related things but that's probably because I'm a bit low on funds. XD Most I spent recentley was on getting a set of the FiM Walmart posters sent my way.
-
Yes...yes it's a good investment! :angel: :biggrin:
And if my TRU had any little dead riding hood MH dolls when I went today I would have spent another £22.99 :P

Hello. My name is Anitas_Mom and I'm a pony-holic.....
-
lol yep this hobby ain't cheap! *surrenders and hands over bank card to mercynova* XD
-
... which isn't a splurge it's an... investment. XD
This is what I keep telling myself and anyone who says I spend far too much money! :D
-
Whenever I get questioned about buying ponies/dolls, I change the subject fast :P
-
Lol...thankfully I think I am just about averaging your total this month...a terrifying amount of which is on combs and brushes!
-
Hello. My name is Anitas_Mom and I'm a pony-holic.....
-chants- Hello Anitas_Mom! Welcome to our ponyholic meeting. :P
-
Lol!
Cat that needs to be a heck of a load of brushes! :lol:
-
Oh it is dont worry...and do you know what I probably have most of them already...
*promises self I will sort out the comb chaos one day*
-
I think I spent more than double that this month, my custom comissions are finished from one artist, and that total came to nearly that, and then I found some ponies that have been on my list for years. So HAD to have them., So yeh probally double that for the month I recon. Having this next month off to hopefully save... please no new ponies I NEED show up in September. Lol.
-
Lol Saja I feel your pain...well half your pain anyway :drunk:
Oh it is dont worry...and do you know what I probably have most of them already...
*promises self I will sort out the comb chaos one day*
:P but we need duplicates always... I mean what if some get broken? Or lost,...then we will have the replacements to hand. Yes repeatedly buying the same thing 10 times over is necessary *haz a justify* :dribble:
-
Oh my! I put my self on a pony buying STOP, since I was buying up G4's when I saw them, and was on ebay so much (didn't really buy much there though... always felt so very guilty for buying myself anything). I haven't spent more than 50cents to a dollar this last month, lol. Haven't found anything though. Now I'm on the forums, hoping to find bait lots to buy. In the 13 months since I started I have spent $465 dollars (that includes the few fairytales birds I've gotten... I think I have 10 now?). I have over 350 ponies, lots of ponyville playsets, the G1 stable, and a load of G3 accessories (actually, there's a box of G1 in there too... somewhere). The G1's have my heart though. sigh...

She likes them out to play with and I am keeping all of mine in there boxes. I am happy to know that I am not the only one that is spending alot. :)

I am digging Ringlets logic...I never thought I would be so grateful for living in the soggiest country in the world [ok minor exaggeration but I genuinely haven't seen the sun since 2009 in Scotland :P] Every rainy day = a pony spending day!!
-
LOL yeah Cat, and they said on the news this has been the wettest summer in 100 years! So that's who've spent more :angel:

-
Lol pony sprees are the best XD I don't think I've had THAT much spent in a month, but I'm sure I did go way over $100 this month XD.
I REGRET NOTHING!! :frolic: :silly: :yippee: :banana: :newpony:
-
Sure Ringlets...that may be the story you told Mr Ringlets...*pull the other one* :P
-
*Ringlets is obviously needing to be more convincing* :lol: *hides photographic evidence* :accomplished: :ninja:
actually....*grins* my hubby was walking around with Chief in his shirt pocket at that Ponycon, so he was totally getting into it himself ..... and I sent him to look over the stalls for some accessories I wanted.... so perhaps he didnt quite see how much I spent :accomplished: :angel:
-
Awwww....well as long as he was focusing on pony purchases all is a good thing...I believe you now Ringlets :P
