Okay, so some of you may not have to worry about the money to buy all our fun little toys, but some of us that are still paying for college (like me!) how do you fund your gun habit? Just do, go donate plasma, eBay sells, what? Just wondering because you think about it, it does get expensive.

Oh I don't have to think about it, I know it gets expensive! I just pimp my wife out. Notice I only have 2 guns and a lower. Hell, I have to go pimp smack her to make more money now!

My drill paychecks are my fun money. Whether it's car parts, guns, knives, whatever. One weekend a month doesn't buy many toys.

Shoe box money.....or in my case ammo box money (the one place shel never look

).

Get a job with the welfare department. Take one penny off every welfare check. Reap the benefits.

I save all change, singles and fives that I collect every day. End of the year it usually adds up to about $2,500-$3,000. YMMV though. I use cash for most purchases so this is not too painful for me. If you mainly use debit/credit card or checks this system has its drawbacks.

Don't they ever think it's funny that you pay cash? Then again, don't have to wait for it to clear.

No, why would they? Most stores around here do the cash price on the sticker and bump it 3-4% for CC purchases. I can usually talk a little better deal with cash if they're willing to negotiate at all too.
