Starving yourself to get a set?

[Millacol88]

Alright... I'll just knock on anorexic people then....

WHAT? What? Who said that? Did I hear something?

EDIT: Why do I always put the thumbup sign when I wanna hit the tongue button?

...Damnit.... ...damnit... ...There we go.

HaHa. yeah i've been saving for the at-ot and dropship since it came out. i actually yelled at my friend when he put his change into a charity jar at mcdonalds.

got it last week though, and currently find it totally worth the money.

Usually after shopping in the Mall I grab a snack there: sushi, pizza, burger & fries and drink, or so.

But after overspending -again- at the LEGO store I don't have that snack and drive home with a shrivelled stommach.

Then at home I quickly raid the fridge, wash hands and start building.

Depending on the amount I have spent I will have cheaper food in the following days.

lol, sort of.. I finally splurged and bought 10179 ME.. but I only justified it because it's on sale.. also, now it'll be another month before I buy a washer and dryer, but the laundrymat is sort of on the way home from work

This will be the second year that I will save up a wad of cash for the Brickworld convention. Being able to get some Brickforge and Brickarms sets, a ME models car and some other random stuff is great, but the big fiancial purcahse is the late night Brickworld-only sale at the LEGO store. Last year I put asside 400 bucks specifically for this from side jobs, and this year it will be a bit less. I'm going a couple months buying almost no LEGO for myself to prepare.

Here's what I got at last year's half off sale. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?...st&p=318577

My splurge will be later this week, four large Agents sets that i promised myself if i completed my assignments on time.

Then nothing too big (apart from at a discount) until the summer.

well, i will be going to england in july and i will be visiting the lego shop in milton keynes there (we don't have any lego shops here in ireland) so i have been saving to buy the lego death star 10188. i actually saved up a bit to much, it costs £270 and i saved up £450! i will probaby spend it on the new sets. thats quite a lot of money for me as i am only 12
