+70,000 Apps = -$$ From Wallet

I very rarely buy apps. I think the most expensive one I did buy was iFitness and that was b'c I was going to the gym and it helped out immensely. All the .99 apps will nickel and dime you to death if you're not careful.

I love the "watch" feature on Bargain Bin and App Miner. If I want something badly enough, I can usually wait to grab it when it's free for a limited amount of time. MLB At Bat and Madden 10 were exceptions which is why they account for over a third of my money spent on apps.

I was surprised when I went through my iTunes receipts recently only to find I had spent maybe 15% of the amount I had previously spent on apps during my PalmOS / Treo days. As to the comment about Bargain Bin / App Miner... I have App Miner but I find AppShopper.com to be much better. You tell them what you own and what you want and they send you an email when there is an update / price decrease. Very handy.

I'm pretty cheap. I really only got free apps until I got some iTunes cards for Christmas... $65 worth. I think I have $2 left in my account at this point, so there ya go.

I like this site:

I also get RSS feeds from both of those sites. Highly recommend them also.

Scouting around and following the right people/sites on Twitter has really cut back my App expenditures. I totaled up about $70 that I've gotten in free apps compared to the $30 or so that I've spent on them. Not a bad ratio.

If you were truly OCD, I think you'd probably tidy up that spreadsheet just a little. That's a bigger stab at my OCD than yours so please don't take that personally.

Probably about $120... But most of that is tied up in a few relatively expensive apps like slingplayer, jaadu vnc, and spacetime.
