how much have you spent on knives in 30 days or how many bought?

In the last month I have spent about 250 or so. I bought a Remington bullet knife on the auction site, a Case fixed blade on the auction site and I got an email the other day and my Joe Calton 52-100 EDC is on the way. I am pumped, this is close to my ideal EDC.
 
I've only spent a little over $200.00 on three knives. The trouble is this has become a trend. I'm so naive as to believe that each purchase will quench my thirst for another knife. It really is time for me to show some discipline.
 
$88 for a spyderco stretch and resilience 2 for 1 deal on the bay.
37 for a spyderco serrated spyderco stretch off the bay
137 for a benchmade 940 from knifeworks
45 for a kershaw knockout on the exchange.
105 for a paramilitary 2 off of craigslist

for a total of $ 275 (I just doubled my income though so I thought I would celebrate by buying the knives I have had my eyes on for a while.

I've spent more on shipping items out from the pay it forward thread than I have on anything else... 14 flat rate boxes ain't cheap!

This month I was supposed to save every penny but the Devil got in my ear and I spent about $100 on knives this month. On the one hand I hadn't bought any knives for 3 or 4 months prior to this. On the other hand my finances are falling into question due to the Government Shutdown so I really should have been saving money for the worst case scenario. Oh well, at least I got a couple of really nice knives. I got a Buck Vanguard and Spyderco Tenacious as I found a great deal on it and I don't have that one in my collection.
 
Too much.
Bought as new knives past 30days: Arno Bernard Dassie, 3 Benchmade Nimravii, Benchmade 13960, Mini-grip REI LE, 530 REI LE, Clampack griptilian, 2 Lonewolf landslides, H&K Enigma, Victorinox Recruit, and SOL Corelite. Plus, 530 via trade. I'm planning to get another mini-grip from REI with 20% member discount that ends tomorrow. I need help guys.
 
None. I spent 2 weeks in the hospital then another 2 weeks recovering from the surgery at home. The paycheck I got while I was in the hospital was fairly small(I got sick shortly after the new pay period started so I only had a few days on the check), so I basically had paycheck for a month(the pay I did have on that check was mostly reserved for food, gas, and such). I get paid again on the 20, so hopefully then I'll be able to order something new,
