Rebeka Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I don't think there's any topic about this, so lets discuss this: What is your biggest Neopets addiction/NP sink ? Where do you spend your hard-earned NPs, even if you didn't need to? Mine are the wheels, especially the big Wheel of Extravagance. I lost an app. 500 000NPs in the last five days, but I still spin it - and not for the avatar, mostly because of the excitement and adrenaline :yes: An no, I DO NOT have a gambling problem :whistle: So, share your dirty little secrets :evil: EDIT: ALL ADDICTIONS COUNT, not only NP related! You now, a problem is a problem .. *stuffs chocolate in mouth* not that I have any .. :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetdang Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Lol, you amuse me. :) Hmm, I don't really have any. The dailies in general, I guess. I feel like stabbing myself when I go to buried treasure (and get nothing!) and all the wheels and caravan. The daily 15,000 - 18,000 I spend on stocks kills me too, because they usually all fall. When they don't though... for example, I just sold 1,000 stocks for 40,000, though I purchased them at 15,000. ^_^ I'm not much of a spender, really. Can't afford to, when I don't play games. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dcoolb Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I have two... Food Club, and Neodeck cards. I would say that Neodeck cards is worse because I have spent over 400k on them. Food club is only 2100 neopoints or something like that. But overall is pretty expensive. I now have more neodeck cards than avatars. :whistle: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sweetdang Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Ho, if we're talking about wasting on my pet, it would be books. Over 300,000nps (prolly closer to 500,000, really ) because I love my pet. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nika Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 The daily 15,000 - 18,000 I spend on stocks kills me too, because they usually all fall. At least you never lose if you don't sell! I'm also a stock addict so that's definitely the thing I spend the most on. I have way more NP invested in stocks than I've ever had in my bank account at one time. And I used to do the Wheel of Extravagance for the avatar, but I need to save up collateral for other avvies...and it was really killing my savings <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sambarose Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 *Clicks on trading post* "Must stay away from trading post..." *lots and lots of nps later* "what only 5000? NOOOOOOOO!" This is where I spend my money, often on stuff I don't need. :laughingsmiley: If it had to be an item I would have to say, CLOTHES! I LOVE buying clothes for my pets! Exleast they look pretty... :king: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakabato Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 It used to be buying stuffs for the pack rat avatar, but since that I already have it now, I guess buying Neohome furniture would count, but I don't do it as often though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyingeevee Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Lolz, my addiction is that I tend to SAVE a lot and never wanna spend it xD I usually dislike when I buy something expensive and then I'm left with next to nothing o.o After I hit the 10 mil mark though, watch me spin some more wheels just the avatars though xD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emohairx Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Paint Brushes xD It's so exciting to paint your pet. .... Brought over 25 paint brushing and usually just pound the pet after a week cuz i don't like it anymore xP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
April Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Dubloons and Kougra stuff. I buy the Dubloons as I want to make a one thousand neopoint coin and the Kougra stuff, well it's for my gallery. Also, saving up for FQD for lending and for my gallery. And all the dolls I need for that gallery are WELL over a millino. One of them being 40 mil. :sad01_anim: My problem is collecting. That's my NP sink. I collect Stamps, Avatars, Cards, Kougra stuff, Neggs... *le sigh* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruka Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 Paint brushes too! Must... Paint... Pets (I'm on my way to painting Snowie white)! :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoboHissi Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Stamps. Any time I see a stamp that I don't have that's cheap (like one that typically costs 1m but is in auctions for 250k) I have to buy it. It's gotten me up to 350 stamps, but virtually depleted my bank account. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweetdang Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 TO be honest, I have no problem with painting my pets. I've never used a paint brush and althoguh I have dream pets, I've never really BADLY BADLY WANTED one before. Let's jsut say, if I just hit ym 10mil mark, I wouldn't take it all out to buy a paintbrush. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Lyuba Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 My addiction: customising. I am probably the ONLY veteran (7 1/2 years) who likes customising and is actually even additcted to it. Yes, I make NC runs all the time, a guilty pleasure, but I also use NP items as well, in fact a dream wearable of mine is one of the undersea backgrounds that are unbuyable. I want it for my Koi. Perhaps more than one even for a dream Maraquan pet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Totally wearables. No doubt that's where majority of my neopoints go... and money due to NC Mall lol That and trying to get avatars - I've got a fair share of them but the ones I need are expensive/random.

Kaana Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Prettifying pets in general... I've already planned at least 2.2mil worth of wearables/paintbrushes to get, which is a lot for a relative noob :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome Back Apathy Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 Avatars. Need I say more? ...Yes, I need to say more, since that was only five words. I'm an avatar collector, and yes, I've sunk TONS of np into avatars. I've lost millions in lending and trying to get lent. I bought those three Hidden Tower books, which wasted 11,100,000 np. I gave up on the Wheel of Extravagance for now because I never seemed to get anything from it--I would always land on 25,000 or 0. And now I'm saving up to buy BGC. (I've also painted pets into the correct avatar pet and then lent out the pet but lost it nearly immediately every time. I made a beautiful Halloween Lupe named Demon_of_Moonlight and then tried to lend, but it was before transfers were possible, and I lost him to someone who nearly immediately afterward left the site forever. BAH. I liked that one, too.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't afford to, when I don't play games. :/ I am the same way with stocks. I always figure that they'll rise a few points from the 15,000 I buy them at but after I buy them they just plummet immediately. I occasionally make a little money but I don't think it evens out. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I live on chocolate Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 I have to save up for avatars, so no spending for me for a while :sad02: But if I had unlimited np, I would totally make an awesome gallery with expensive items, not like the one I have now, with fishing items! :laughingsmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 For me, it's buying Codestones just to power up my Kiko's statistics, but I stopped months ago when I discovered that Faerie Quests can really help out in the long run. Also, my other one was helping out my Chocolate gallery, but I'll continue after I get that Royal PB for my Poogle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aqua111 Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 At least I don't have addictions involving NPs so if I only had the time to play games daily I would be able to make a few more millions in the shortest amount of time. First addiction are a few dailies - collecting my interest, visiting coltzan's shrine, the lab ray, the forgotten shore, shooing the kraken away from Krawk Island. I would walk through the desert just to be able to doing my dailies. The second addiction at least only can be lived once a year for the duration of one month. Speaking of the Altador Cup. If I hadn't to do such interrupting things like eating, drinking, sleeping or going to work I would play 24/7. During that time my eating and sleep behaviour always drastically has to change.
