CelShadedDreams Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I don't know how, but I've only spent £60 this year so far and I have a £21 giftcard too. I have bought more than £60s worth of stuff, but I did a huge trade in earlier in the year and that covered loads of my games. Getting discounts helps, and I shop around more than I used to. Tracking my spending is definately making me more concious of what I'm buying and if it's worth the cost. I'm not as interested in getting things on day one anymore, I can wait until it drops in price. Never would have done that two years ago, I used to spend way too much on games and other stuff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DANGERMAN Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 I dread to think what I'm up to now. I had been doing reletively well in terms of not buying loads of games, but at the same time I've been happy to buy download stuff just because, and I've bought a few games recently because they've been cheap (Silent Hill, Red Steel 2, Far Cry 1&2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroed Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 If we exclude the two systems I've purchased (DSi XL and PS3 250GB) which were mostly funded by credit anyway, I've spent £425. I've also sold games to nearly the same value though, which is a bonus. Here's April and May spends, as I forgot to update last month. June will see Super Mario Galaxy being bought, which I have preordered for £29.99, and probably another game or two, depending on if there's any tasty price drops.
