BigSi13 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Ive ordered my early bird tickets, plus my photos... So money for things to buy and autographs etc - how much do you guys normally bring? My biggest amount taken to any event was £500 to spend, plus I had my Debit Card. Thankfully I didn't use the Debt Card, but it was close. All I did and do, is pre plan.

Flibble Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 I usually take about £100 just in case I see a few things that I might like.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraHawk Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 after entry and autographs I won't really have any money left, most I'll spend will be £20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tina197 Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Not really sure how much I'll have, as I get paid this week but coz it's the end of the month, my bank will take anything they need (direct debits, account insurance etc) automatically. So I'll be bringing whatever I've got left over, and some of my savings (which isn't much, lol!) so I'm hoping it'll be around £200 if I'm lucky, but it's more likely to be around £120 or so.

Not_Pennys_Ship Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 £50 for each day. Otherwise I can easily blow the whole lot in one day. Must resist temptation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wondermoose Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Well, Ill prolly bring 400-500£ in total to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
svenntroll Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 For me it depends what's for sale. If I would see something on Friday and I won't have enough money with me on that day, I will take more money on Saturday. At CMMK I spend about 250 quid on trading cards (boxes and loose ones) and that wasn't the first time.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AutoBot Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I'll bring 235 quid to spend at the convention. I would have brought more if I didn't have a limit to how much my bag can weigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary nichol Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Spending just over £200 on autographs so can't afford anything else. Would love a few photo shoots too but think £200 just on autographs is already too much :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisonloub Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 I did a quick tot up on the autos this morning, it's coming in just under £200 for the lot, hubby says we have to cut down but I have a plan, some of the ones I have noted down are who the kids want to meet (like Camille from DW), so they can use there money to pay for there autos!! I think we will take £50.00 each day for the traders, and then take some lunch with us etc...THIS WON'T happen tho!!, we will get far to excited and take everything that we can find moneywise and blow the lot....were not having a summer hol now so this is our treat......ooh so was CM!!!

Why the weigh limit issue, are you bringing the money in pennies? I know £5 notes are like gold dust because of autographs that are £15 or £25 and most people have only £10 and £20 notes, but I've not missed a post explaining that you've lowered autograph prices to £9.99 and £19.99 to suddenly need a load of pennies for change have I?

Nooooooooooo, no and no. It's going to be interesting enough with the front door being £12 and £6 and us needing £1 coins by the bucket load.
