I've set myself the limit of $25 per month, but usually end up spending a little more, about $26-$29, due to currency exchange charges and shipping costs which could fluctuate quite wildly. Nowadays, most of it goes to 15mm miniatures and miniature supplies, as I seem to have most RPG books I think I need.

I am in the $1-$25 range at the moment, probably towards the high side of that. I have the Pathfinder AP subscription at the moment and then I've been picking up the Pathfinder Sourcebooks as they come out and the occasional PDF from them as well to supplement some of my stuff.
 

Probably less than $20 a month. I've picked up a couple 3.5 supplements online, bought a couple of pdfs, and a new set of dice, maybe one purchase a month on average, if that. My library is quite sufficient for most of my needs.

Now if you count the gas to get there, food, and especially drink, I'd be a bracket up at least.
 


My guess for the $501 is minis, and possibly someone in the military; several military folks I knew spent a lot on games because "they didn't have much else to spend it on" while in the service.
 

I subscribe to both the Paizo AP line and the RPG line. Occaisionally I pick up Item cards and Sourcebooks. Overall I'm spending a whole lot less on RPG stuff that I used to during the 3.5 days. Most if not all of my money goes to Paizo these days (with the exception of a purchase of Castle Ravenloft a few moths ago. And the only reason that happend was a too hard to resist Amazon Pre-order price of $40).
 

Its been downward trending for years, as I have learned a long and slow lesson on how little on can get out of many gaming products (and how much out of a few). I have reached the point that if I want to get some new books, I force myself to find some old ones to get rid of.

My three subscriptions: ENW, DDI, and KQ have slightly countered the trend. DDI in particular is a much better model to get $ from me and could be the future, if, you know, they could get it right.

That's when I bought most of my stuff also. I think the other big factor for big buyers (though not all) is marital status. Single players usually have more disposable income. I was in the military, and single, when I bought the lions share of my stuff (books and minis).
 

Mine varies a lot depending on what comes out from Paizo subscriptions that month. I would say i spend about 10-20 on avg over and above my paizo stuff. Which ranges anywhere from about 30 to 100. Usually around 50-60 give or take a little.
