How much did you spend at TFCON 2010?

Just wondering what everyone spent this year at the convention.

I'm starting to plan real early to get a hefty amount to bring to 2011.

Saving $50 a month doesn't hurt so bad, as trying to come up with $500 I can reasonably spend on toys the month of the convention.

Re: How much did you spend at TFCON 2010?

I made aboot 300 or so selling TF's ( I really only meant to trade with people but oh well), and I spend 400 on top of that. I even managed to come home with 200, lol. I am planning on selling some more things and using my profit sharing bonus check at the con... so aboot 800 or so and thats not including gas for the 6 drives from Burlington, lol.

Not including the cost of entry, my exclusive Nightbird, comic, parking and the awesome custom class. Had a great time, thanks Cybertron.ca staff.

Re: How much did you spend at TFCON 2010?

I spent close to $700. Most of that was on TF's, but some of that was food and drinks. I had a budget of $1k for spending, and I left with just over $300 of that left, so I'd say I did pretty good.

Re: How much did you spend at TFCON 2010?

I'm considering Saving a $1,000, and spending every dime, since it's my 30th birthday gift to myself. Unfortunately the hotel for 2 nights (Fri, Sat) works out to about 250, so really only $750 for toys.

Hotel and food added up to another $250 or so...

$140 if you count buying two figures of a fellow board member and picking them up at the con. Else just $50.

Re: How much did you spend at TFCON 2010?

I spent just under $600.

However, I dropped almost $75 on reprolabels, about $90 on original art and Autographs, had a pre-arranged pick-up for some Botcon Toys, and I picked up a few higher priced items which drove my budget up.

In the end I only came home with about 12 toys or so.
