    This weekend alone I have spent $16.

    And I plan on getting Rayman 2 and Ragdoll Blaster 2 tomorrow so that's about $10 more.

    So within 3 days I will have spent $26... And this is the confessions of an appaholic :eek:

    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:. Where do you get that kind of money?!?!?!? And what's your favorite app?
     
  5. Isn't it weird that users that (claim) to have spent the most money are generally less active people on tA? :p

    I was a lurker for a LONG time. I never stole promos or anything like that though. I could post screen shots of all 11 pages of apps that are completely full if you wish. I'm not sure how to show my entire account because like I said: I delete to make room.

    I have spent maybe around $75 since the app store first opened. I have lots of great games, but I usually wait for sales (and they always have sales eventually).

    But $2000+ !!! Holy crap! That is almost a month's salary for me. How can some folks afford that? My mind is blown.

    Also, a question for the group: if someone is pending that much, could it be that they have a problem? This is a serious question; like is it an addiction and can it be debillitating? What do y'all think?

    I used to smoke and I quit that. I can't quit this. I am addicted lolz. And I've had an intervention from my mother. I'm only a senior in high school. I've had an iPod since June of 09. The first app I bought was pocket god which is a terrible "game" btw.

    I spent about $180 last year. When I started, I set up a limit for myself - $10/month on apps. Haven't quite stuck to that, but not so far off... :p (and of course, I've got a huge list of ones I still want to get)

    Thousands of $ is a hell of a lot of money to spend in one year on apps. I'd like to know whether you guys actually use/play all of them? Because I barely get to play all of the games I buy (I have, but certainly not finished or thoroughly played all of them). I just don't have enough time.

    I got my iPod Touch medio October 2009, and I spent about $400 since.
    That's $80 pr month.
    But I'm sure I will spend less in the future, just had to be up to date with games :rolleyes:

    This weekend I bought Arkanoid, iBubble Shooter Pro, Dungeon Solitaire, The Crystals of Atlantis, Blocked mode (DLC) for Compressions and Power Gems - that's $10, so I don't plan to buy more this month ;)

    No. Because when you uncork a bottle of fine wine you appreciate your investment lol but in a sense yes
