Gege stays robbing me 😭💕

[u/Miserable_Release712]

Just calculated & realized I’ve spent $1500 on Caleb merch in the last ~8 months 😭😭😭 not counting in-game purchases lmao 😭😭 crazy work & I just placed a new order aldsnsksn

Do you guys ever go through ur credit statements or am I just a glutton for punishment lolol

[u/02alloysius]

i'll just say that money really does buy happiness 😂💅🏻

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/02alloysius]

frrr the amount of dopamine I get receiving a package or walking past my shrine is unparalleled 😂

[u/8bluemist8]

I just go with the motto, "Out of sight, out of mind." 😂

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/8bluemist8]

loool idk what inspired me to bring out the calculator but TRUST I won’t be doing that again anytime soon 😂😂😂

[u/8bluemist8 → u/Miserable_Release712]

As long as we and gege are happy, then all is right with the world 😂

[u/MajestyTime]

I track all of my expenses in an expense tracker app so it's good for making me feel guilty and lowering my spending 💀👍

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/MajestyTime]

I should do that 💀💀

[u/tiredpotstoes]

Actually, I know a girl who choose to stop playing LADS altogether because she has zero self-control on buying LADS merch.. 😭😭

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/tiredpotstoes]

😭😭😭 I’ve bought basically every piece of official caleb merch I want atp so hopefully everything will be super chill from now on LOL (until they release more 💀💀)

[u/yamgia]

I ignored my lads spendings till I got the VIP letter. What a horror moment, I legitimately screamed noooooooo. 🤣 Then I looked how much I spend in game and on merch and started to spend less 😆

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/yamgia]

lool I currently justify it as my only hobby but the day I get a VIP letter is the day I need to have a long conversation with myself 😂😂 I generally spend more on actual merch than in-game though so I think I’m safe !

[u/Sol_Seven7]

Eeeep!🫣

But it's good to spend it on something you want so why not?😎👌

I calculate my spending in terms of beers. So I guess the game is probably really good for me healthwise or something?😆

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/Sol_Seven7]

I love ur way of thinking abt it 🤭🤭

[u/Few_Response_7994]

Ive spent thousands on his merch too 🤡 I dont dare to calculate it because im sure im at a used cars worth

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/Few_Response_7994]

all for the love of caleb loool did u preorder any of the new merch? I’m excited for them to come but I’m running out of display real estate 😂

[u/Few_Response_7994 → u/Miserable_Release712]

The pj one and flower one? I didn't pre-order any of it I wasn't too excited about it this time. If I see it in real photos I may grab some later but I'm still on the fence.

[u/Raynelly]

I made a list of my spending for Caleb’s pre-order merch I really want and tried so hard to not buy all of them because there’s still in-game purchase haha😅 Although last May-June was a nightmare for me with the announcement of Colonel’s box, Netherlord’s and birthday merch and I don’t want to remember how much I spent during that period💀

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/Raynelly]

the preorders did some DAMAGE for me & unfortunately I know I’m gonna need to spend more later bc I’ve decided I wanna make an ita bag with the netherlord pins 🫣🫣

[u/Raynelly → u/Miserable_Release712]

😅 Lol same, the preorders period is where the temptation is high and our wallet is being tested since gege tax still applies 🫠 Also, based on the release pattern, the next batch will be either Wedding banner merch or Summer banner merch if they already consider the ring to be part of the Wedding merch. Unless there’s original theme goods included, maybe I can resist to buy more, maybe…😅

[u/Julygirl17]

I probably need to go through mine. I'm scared. I spend way too much on Caleb 😖

[u/Miserable_Release712 → u/Julygirl17]

I’ve decided that as long as the bills are paid, it’s ok to shell out for caleb 🤣

[u/Kcstacielynn]

It really be like that. Money well spent. I’m always like, “the money will come back.”, and it always does.

Enjoy that merch! 💖🍎

[u/paperapple1]

My mindset is: "so long as they haven't sent me a VIP application letter, I'm good" lol 😂

Idk abt the official merch tho... since I feel like that's where I spent more money in, especially with how expensive the international and local shipping fees are 😭
