"I Spent a Lot of Money"

[blushiz]

I saw this in a recent thread, and I thought it'd be funny to create a a thread for this. So, the topic is simple: Name a time you spent WAY too much money on blus. Plead your case, victims.

As for me, this is definitely my worst month.

- Terminator 2
- 300
- The Prestige
- Dragonball z: History of Trunks
- Iron Man
- Eraser
- HD Sampler
- Transformers
- Sleeping Beauty
- Matrix Collection
- Constantine

Band of Brothers
The Dark Knight
The Shawshank Redemption
and most likely getting:
Into the Wild
Lost Season 4
The Truman Show

[zombieking]

I have a $400+ order coming together on Amazon. Sadly, it's not finished yet.

[broganreynik]

If I didn't have a wedding/honeymoon to be saving for I'd probably be spending way more right now, and I've still bought 4 this month (Sleeping Beauty, Iron Man, L.A. Confidential and 40 Year Old Virgin). January '08 though was probably my worst time. I think I probably bought around 15 or so, but then again June I probably spent more money because I also bought the Dirty Harry Boxset.

Two orders come to mind for me

I'm telling you lol... and there are a crap load ordered

[katharsis]

$696.40 for the recent Amazon Buy 3 for 2 Sale.
Got 30 movies, 6 are still pre-order, the rest I already have.

Now that got me in trouble with the wife, telling me no Blu-ray for xmas this year... oh well the only 3 I didn't get yet for this year are The Dark Knight, Hellboy 2 and Tropic Thunder

[DepTii]

I got my PS3 less than a year ago (black Friday '07) to be exact and since then I've bought more than a 100 Blu-rays, so every month has been a struggle . My biggest jump, however, was back when Amazon was doing the BOGOs and I did two ~$200 orders within a week or two.

[sardaukar1977]

I always spend too much on blu's I gave up trying to figure out exactly how much long ago.

yeah, i'm an original 06 and 07 format war warrior. the sh*t almost took me broke. i'm laying low this x-mas, maybe some ps3 games for daddy.

[Sky_Captain]

I spend around $200 every month, sometimes more.

[owa]

There were a few release days where I bought 10+ blu-rays but I can no longer remember the specific titles and don't have any idea what the total for the particular month was.

[saprano]

Easy guys you dont want the blu-ray therapist questioning on why we spend so much money on blu's, we already have those other 2 threads.

[AintNoSin]

I don't think that anything is ever going to compare to my DVD purchases during what I call "bloody November" back in 2002. Band of Brothers, Babylon 5 Season 1, LOTR:FOTR Extended, another ST:TNG season... plus a bunch of single disc titles. It was brutal on the wallet.
