LillytheGrundo Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I just got my first NC for my birthday ( Thanks if you're reading this! You know who you are!) and now I am having the hardest time spending it. I go over and over the same item, trying it on all my pets and then ultimately decide that I can wait for something better. That I don't want to "waste" the NC even though I like the item. lol Does anyone else do this?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emily Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 I do it with things that are limited edition. With things that are in there all the time (backgrounds) or seasonally, I'm more likely to not buy it if I'm not sure because I know it'll be there later. With things that are only in for a short time, I'm more likely to hem and haw because if I decide later that I want it, it's going to cost more to trade with someone.

LillytheGrundo Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 I think I may get one more thing from the Elite Shop and then put myself on a spending freeze for a while. That will make just two things on my first day ever having NeoCash. I need to make it last in case they come out with something super cool. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
behemothrules Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Lol the first and only time I got NC last month, I blew most of it on Blumaroll -_- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moni_rawr Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I always have the same issues...I usually go at least a few months before spending my NC, but I usually end up buying a capsule so I leave my luck up to it rather than having to pick an item lol.

Dragonfly Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I do the exact same thing. But, I do that with real money too so. . . lol! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LillytheGrundo Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 I'm also now realizing that once you have NC you don't have to worry about inflation too much. If I like a certain item or background I don't have to worry about the restockers grabbing all of them and jacking up the price to something insane... I just need this NC to last me like a year so I have to be confident in my purchases. So for me, NC is a little bitter sweet. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rchynkim Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Definitely. I did that on other games I played too, LOL. Like Mabi and Maplestory. But honestly it's kinda fun to have a 'limit', because then you get more excited about what you're buying. :) I'm contemplating whether I should get some NC or not. I don't mind spending my money, but it's just that most of the NC items look somewhat... tacky haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
