I'm in the same boat with Outrider. I spend on what I want. If I can't afford it, I don't buy it, but then again, Since unlike some collectors here, I don't also collect Star Wars, Transformers, etc., That leaves me with a lot of cash to devote to Joes. I spend between $100 a month and $600 a month on Joes (usually the $600 is when they have Con sets or I catch a deal on something I have been searching a long time for. (Like that Bailey Bridge! Best $600 I ever Spent!) Also, like Outrider, since I'm not a fan of the 25th and don't buy Many of them, I have more money to spend on expensive and rare items these days. Used to be I would spend $300 and get about 40 action figures, 5-6 Vehicles and a Playset or two. Now, I'm looking at spending $400 and getting the 2007 Con Grand Slam and Starduster. LOL!

Now, when we talk about spending on Joes, are we also talking about spending on Dio Supplies? Probably 1/3 to 1/2 of what I spend a month is on dio Supplies (Lights, hobby wood, Aquarium pieces, doll furniture, other playsets such as MASH, Police Academy, Lil Brats, etc). I put a LOT into my hobby, but then again, I don't play Xbox, Playstation, Wii, I don't collect other toy lines, I gave up Martial Arts (too old and it hurts too much now!) and I'm not into Motorbikes or Cars (Except My Dodge Magnum, Lola. but I'm not into buying million dollar stereo systems, Rims, lights etc.) So, basically, after food, gas and bills the rest I can use for Joes.....

I spent a lot each month on Joes sometimes up to fifty dollars!
Now adays I hunt for good deals it makes Joe collecting more fun.

Unless I go to a show probably about $30 a month sometimes more but sometimes I don't spend any. I read too many comics a month trying to trim down. With joes if i don't take pics of them, I sell them, if i don't think i will take pics i don't buy them.`My only other indulgence is pez dispensers since they're a dollar each my wife never complains about the pez. All this may change in a few months with the baby.

Same here Frank. My only other weakness is Nascar diecast cars, but Joes always take priority! :)

It varies. Like if I want to army build or not. This being the Holiday Season and all, I spent a little more than usual as I bought some for my Mom's coworker's grandson.

That's Great,we need the Younger Kid's to get into Joe's like all of us Did.I helped out a Lady in the Toy Department a few Day's ago that was looking for a Christmas Gift for Her Nephew,at first she was looking at Cars.And then she noticed I was looking at Joe's so she said,"I wonder if my Nephew would like a G.I Joe Figure",and of course I said,"Yes".So she looked over the Joe's,and picked up a 12" Dusty Figure.I told her he would really like that as a Christmas Gift,and so she bought it for him.So maybe I helped plant the Joe Seed in another little Fellow..
