In the grand scheme of things- How much does your trading hobby cost you a month?

When you factor in pacakges/shipping
Materials to ship IN
Discs to burn off, and or mistakes blunders that happen.

Does your hobby include any subscriptions to magazines or online rental places
Or just rentals in general

Do have a money saving tip?

I only do about 5 trades a month so its about 20 dollars I would say. I have to buy only one spindle every two months and I usually get a 50 pack for about $18. so that is 9 dollars for one month. I guess shipping is about $2.00 on average so that would be 10 dollars if I do 5 trades.

Out of curiosity what are some tape trading magazines?

passionsfan79 · 07-23-2006, 08:12 PM

For me around $10.00-$25.00.

It actually costs me nothing. I had been seeing Bubbles on the strip, each week at fifty bucks a pop. Now I see her every other week and with the $100.00 savings, I invest in disks and postage. Bubbles says she's crazy about me, and wants a relationship. Hope she's not stringing me along.
