How much do you spend on scrapbooking

How much do you think you have spent on scrapbooking? I do not even want to think about how much I spend, way too much I know. There is just too many options on the market and it is so easy to spend too much on embellishments and stickers. With all the new toys like Cricut and such, it's easy to be overwhelmed. How much do you think you have spent on your hobby? I am sure I am in the thousands.

When I think about how much I have spent total on scrapbooking, I really have no idea. I have so much stuff. But I never invested in products that cost a hundred+ a pop. I would defintately say high hundreds. Maybe lower one thousand if you include photo development, scrapbook conventions - because I would travel to them. It would include gas, food and hotel. I have a number of rubber/acrylic stamps and those can add up as well.

I'm sure I'm not in the thousands, although it's not difficult to get there! I have a quickutz squeeze, which is my largest purchase to date. the rest are just stamps and paper and inks. and ribbons, and flowers, and chipboard, and thickers. oops. that's quite a lot isn't it.

Let's see, I only started scrapping 3 years ago, and probably around $500, I try to go to sales and watch what I spend. My daughter and I are heading off to our favorite scrapbooking store Thanksgiving night, it opens at midnight! and it's 30% off your entire purchase! then we're going on to Christmas shopping.
