How many tmnt-related items do you buy a month.

I was just wondering how many tmnt items does one buy a month ?
Is that mostly ebay related or do you guys try to avoid ebay and go with trift stores, flea markets ,etc..
I for a start prob buy atleast 3 items a month..
(sorry if this is a repo)
Cowabunga!

Right now, it's pretty much just the comics I buy every month. But, once the new show airs, and there's more things available in stores, that number will be increasing. (Especially the figures based on the old toon!)

Just comics for now.

I buy DVDs of the cartoons whenever they come back. I'll buy some of the new toys when the Nick show starts.

At the moment the only Ninja Turtle stuff I buy are the IDW comics, but as soon as Nickelodeon starts releasing DVDs of the new show I'll be getting them too. I'm kind of up in the air about the action figures though.

I don't buy anything. However, after a long hiatus from the site, I have made a few ebay purchases lately.

I was buying comics off eBay fairly often last year when I was trying to complete my Archie Adventures run, as well as a number of those random 18-20 ninja turtle comic packs off of mycomicshop.

Right now though I pick up the comics every month and the Ultimate Collections when they're released. The figures don't interest me much but I'll buy any of the dvd's.

Last year I was spending about 150 dollars a week on tmnt stuff. I've since cut back to about 40 even then I split it up with my kool aid collection now.

ATM I only get the books/collections that IDW is putting out. But once the action figures start coming out I'll be getting those as well.

I've also pre-ordered the kiddy books that'll be out beginning of August thru Barnes and Noble.

I have an old Berry Blue Kool Aid container that I used to keep pencils in. Is that worth anything? I didn't know people collected Kool Aid.
