I don't want to spend more than $800. I'm not sure how much I spent last year but I know there were about 4 or 5 more toys I would have liked to pick up. *Hoping for this year* |

I doubt I'll spend $2K but I know I'll be bankrupt no matter what  All for the experience, right? |

As I posted in another thread, I had budgeted a LOT for this year, as last time (2 yrs ago) I went pretty nuts. However, I think I've become more discriminating in the past couple of years, so I'm probably not going to be near as insane as I was. Plus most of the new/exclusive stuff just seems weak to me. The main thing is not having to worry and agonize if I see something cool (as long as I can keep my impulse buying in check). |

I know If I attend, I couldn't help it but to spend a lot. Having seen some of the previews, I might even spend a bit---even physically not attending. |

$300 should do it, but that's only if things go my way. About $120-$250 otherwise. |

Limiting myself to 1, maybe 2, days this year to try and keep the damage low. We'll see how that works out. |

Out of the question to attend but there's a couple SDCC 2008 exclusives that wet the appetite. |

Almost doubling over the course of a weekend doesn't bode well!  . . . and I'm speculating there'll be another $80-100 added in the next couple of days!
