    That should be more than enough. When I went to Celebration II I only had $100 on me, and most of that went into gas for my rental car. In fact, I ran out of money fast and had to rely on some close friends to buy me something to eat the last day or two. (I should say that the whole trip cost me $750 for CII - Hotel, Airfare, rental car, tickets, but all that was paid in advance). This time I'm already spending over $1,600 and that doesn't even include a rental car. Of course last time I stayed in a $50 a night hotel about 15 minutes drive time away, and this time I'm staying across the street.

    This time I'm bringing substantially more so I can be sure to be able to purchase anything that catches my fancy.

    As long as they're not republic credits, you're str8.

    You'll be able to eat well, buy mutliple autographs from all SW celebrities, buy all four Vader figs, and just about any other souvenir/collectible you want. Heck, add another $500 down and Han will attempt to take you to Alderaan. [face_clown]

    Honestly, outside of tickets, eating, hotel, and what it costs to drive up, I doubt I'll spend half that while I'm there but hey if the need arises there's always plastic in my wallet or I can visit aunt-m (ATM) nearby.

    Last time, as with this time... I am only driving 50 miles and I took $1100 with me ans spent every dime. 1080.00 of it went to toys and autograph's and the rest went to lunch for 2 days. This time unfortunately ,I'm only able to take about $600 with me,But I am not going to buy so much toy's ( vintage anyways).


    Repeating to my self..I will not buy to much vintage...I will not buy to much vintage...............

    I would bring 1000 to 1200, that would cover everything.

    I'm budgeting $1500 for the trip, about the same I spent on C2. That includes my room at the Westin, airfare, cab fare, food, entrance ticket, and multiple figures, tshirts, & programs. Since my son & his friend can't attend I have to bring back multiple souvenirs. :)

    I'm not a collector of autographs or figures so I don't have to worry about money for those. I do however have a thing for books so I'll have to see what pops up in the vendor area.

    Yeah, if you're planning on buying vintage stuff then your money won't go far otherwise, you'll be fine.
