2020: How much DID you spend on tea this year!?

Placed CuppaGeek order. And that will be last one this year I guess (don’t count last Bird and Blend subscription)

@Roswell, we live vicariously through your tea purchases! :)

Couldn’t help myself and placed an order for tea on Tangpin (I decided to go for Zheng Shan Feizi Xiao and I have no idea what to expect. Somewhere I found it should be lychee black tea. I can’t wait! Haha.
Spent 12$ which sounds pretty much okay…

As a student with a really tight budget, and in a family in which I can’t just afford to much high quality tea, I enjoy a little samples of tea usually, and get around one or 2 teas in a bigger quantity.

I don’t buy tea every month, but rather every 2 months or so, and when i do I spend around $30 on tea. I have never really kept track of how much I spend but I probably should start, as it could probably get out of control.

Does Christmas gifts to others count? If so, then it’s 797.48 CZK (36,57 USD) count. Oh well, there is as well tea for me!

I’m all done with tea purchases for this year and maybe I do need to start making a budget… I’m way over $800. EDIT — make that over 1.5k <_<…
I blame Pu’erh.

I’m at $570 for year 2020. I had bought so much in 2019 that I’ll be forever drinking that tea. ^^ (Testing to see if I can finally write in the forums since my account was fixed.)

I have a feeling this year it was like $10K or more? But 2021 I’m going on an overall ban (very “loose” on ban, more like generally being respectful that I’ve been going insane the last 4.5 years). Was wondering if gift cards count (like if I bought a gift card this year or sometime previously does it count next year if I spend it next year or not counted since I already “bought” (or was gifted) the “money”) and do subscriptions count (sometimes they are billed monthly, sometimes you pay yearly or quarterly)? Just asking for a friend. ;)

I think it’s just over $500 (USD), not counting teaware, which would add a few hundred more. Still under $1K, though possibly not by much. Next year should be lower, since I’m unlikely to get much more teaware, and since I did buy large quantities of a few favourite types of tea, which will last me for a long time.

I just started loose leaf.

Three purchases from three online suppliers.

Right at $150 for December.

Looking to budget $50 per month going forward.
