In years past how much have you spent on merchandise at The Fest? Was most of your merchandise money spent at the flea market or the actual shows?

In the two I've been to I haven't really bought anything at the flea market, just at the actual gigs. Oh and in Wayward, a lot. And I've tried and failed to spend money at the yard sale two years running. I guess maybe $100 over the whole weekend, like, a couple of tshirts and a dozen albums?

I guess around 70-80$ ,bought 2-3 records at the fleamarket, the rest at the shows.. could have been even more if some bands where I planned to buy something would have had nicer designs - especially none more black

You could probably spend a nearly limitless amount just at the Flea Market on records, CD's, posters etc!! Fest 6 I came back with about 15 t-shirts or hoodies, probably the same amount of CD's and a couple of vinyl. Fest 7 I came back with a similar amount but with a few more vinyl! I spend as much as I take with me!! SydBarrett420 wrote: In years past how much have you spent on merchandise at The Fest?

I would say I spent close to $80. I can't remember all that I bought off hand, but at least a couple cds, a shirt, falcon hoodie and some 7"s.

I guess I'm bored but this is what I spent/got
ate out at least twice a day and drank lots of pbr.. probably at least 30 bucks a day...
and bought this...
holy mountain shirt
vinyl: pygmy lush - mount hope suicide note - empty rooms forensics/ textbook traitors split the holy mountain - entrails pg. 99 - doc 8 small brown bike - dead reckoning the khayembii communique/ the vidablue who calls so loud - s/t al stewart - time passages worn in red/ benard forensics/ kelly osborne mehkago n.t./ religious as fuck cloak dagger - kamikazies brainworms/tubers split Sotatila 7" the swarm - old blue eyes is dead
and that was around 150-200 bucks and what's really sad... I haven't listened to barely any of those... life needs to slow down so I can rock out more...
so this year less shopping!

I spent between $200 and $250 last year. About $100 at Wayward Council on Thursday night. About $100 at the No Idea yard sale. Then another $50 or so from random bands.
I never meant to spend so much. It just turns out that all the records I had been meaning to buy where available there.

I bought almost no merch at Fest 6, and only a little at Fest 7.
Cheap Girls LP, couple Screaming Females CDs, a shirt from the guy at wayward. Maybe something else I am forgetting.
