May was a bit busier than the previous months due to finishing off my UGHs, my VTSC, and the H&V Wave 1.

$354.99  January
$240.39  February
$100.78  March
$111.68  April
$179.68  May


Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Vintage Wave (5 carded and 3 openers)
2006 Saga Ultimate Galactic Hunt (4 carded)
SWShop Lucas Collector's Set (1 opener)
2006 Ep3 H&V Wave 1 (12 carded)


Once again, thankfully, I managed to offset the cost of all those figures a little bit by selling some of the extra stuff in my "for sale" list.  Hooray for recycling old stuff into new toys!   ;)

June should be quiet again with just the Tatooine wave to worry about, but July is going to be a killer with Kubrick Series 6 and possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves...  :-\

You really need to diversify.  This focus on little things is starting to seem a little Freudian to me.  Maybe you oughta get some bigger stuff :P :-*

This whole process is doing nothing but making me want to cut back my SW shopping.  I'm on pace to spend around $2000.00 this year, which isn't a fortune to me, but it's still a lot of money to spend on toys.  More than a pack-a-day smoking habit...

A little delayed in reporting on June thanks to the recent events.  ;)

$354.99  January
$240.39  February
$100.78  March
$111.68  April
$179.68  May
$112.07  June

Total for the half-way point of 2006?  $1099.59  :-[


Stuff I bought in the past month:
2006 Saga Tatooine Wave (6 carded and 8 openers)
2006 Target Skirmish in the Senate (2 openers)

As I had hoped, June was pretty slow - just the Tatooine wave from EE and a few Shocktroopers.  Of course, July is already shoping up to be a budget killer... Kubrick Series 6, possibly the Endor Wave and more H&V waves and more?  :-\

Just under $1,500 and holding.  I am really under what I figured I'd be at right now - so should I start collecting Kubricks??? ;)

PS:  Why did this get "unstuck?"

Because we wanted to give Shannon the "top spot" in Watto's for a while...

Now that it's been a month I think we can re-sticky this one so folks don't have to search for it.

I would think at this point the bulk of your TRU Battle Pack spending would be on TRU Mega Diaper Packs ;)
