I decided today to find out how much of a wallet warrior I am, so using the magic of excel and my Microsoft billing history, I found out. From 2/1/2014 to 3/17/2016, I have spent over $775.00 on this game.
How much have you guys spent on this "Free-to-play" game?

I'm at least $300 in. I'm not going to look any more in-depth because the answer scares me.

A hundo or two. Not too much compared to some people.

Have to go through my billing history and see. This may take a while but initial projections are "a lot."

I've probably spent between 800 and 1K overall...this is my hobby, I don't go out anywhere and spend money so I've sufficiently rationalized it!!  |

What really caps my ass is that none of the money spent on this game counts towards the xbox rewards program.

I think my itemized billing history on this game is longer than my list of infractions on the WG Forums. Seriously, I have to be into this for 3x the amount the OP is. Between my third year of premium time, all of the premium tanks, free XP'ing shit up the wazoo, permanent camo, swapping out perks and equipment..... Yeah. I'm easily into this game for a mortgage payment.

I've spent nearly twice as much as the OP just in $100 gold purchases. That doesn't include all other purchases. I'm just under $3K.
About $100 a month. $3 a day. Honestly, being able to entertain yourself for that sum of money on a daily basis is a drop in the bucket. Fuck I know people that blow that in a 5 minute span between the time they pay up at the register inside of Starbucks, and the time they get to the office.

I am around $3,500.
I personally can't see a reason to buy less gold than $100 worth.
My spending rate has dropped though to a gold purchase about every 8 weeks at this point. About 50 bucks a month....

I'm probably over $3,700 right now.
I regret most of it.

Added it up yesterday and am at around $680. More than half of those, however, were gift cards given to me by someone else. Of course, I didn't run premium time with any regularity until about a year ago, and have only spent gold to convert XP twice, so most of that was for premium tanks.
