I tend to spend a grand total of 700 bucks at fanime:
300 for room
100 for registration (I go with my partner so that's for 2)
300 for anime crap (I usually spend a little under this but 300 is a general rule of thumb, once I spent over because those damn perfect grade Gundam Z model kits are so expensive ><)  I like to get a lot of manga because you can find good deals at the swap meet and sometimes in the dealer room.  I get DVDs and import video games only if the price is nice (the internet and user's side has spoiled us!).  Most of it is spent on toys or little trinkets (cell phone straps, pins etc).

I usually bring food from home which saves a lot of money... although I do tend to eat out at least once at La Vics, and PMH >.>

If I get a job before fanime, I'll be spending 160 on hotel (I'll have roommates), 100 on food, and try to get at least 300 for spending on junk'n'stuff (I am aiming high on this bar however).

I spent 350, 200 or so on the hotel and the rest on food and souvenirs. Looking to save a lot more for next year, but I need a better job.

Surprisingly, I tend to spend only around $200-$300. However, I was a bit disappointed in the vendors and their products this past year so I don't think I even spent $100.  :o Most of my money is saved for AX and Kinokuniya in LA/SF, so I have to ration it all out.

I'm concidering getting a second job to support my anime addiction.  Seriously, if I work 10-20 hours a week I can afford fanime in style as well as one or two more conventions.  They cut my hours at my real job, but gave me a raise at the same time.  So now I make the same ammount in 6 hours I used to in 8.  If I commit those 2 extra hours to something else I could have some good money to spend on conventions next year.   ;D

Food, about 50 bucks a day (Thurs, Friday, Saturday, Sunday Monday) = 250 Dollars.
Hotel Room = 85 bucks.
Parking = 15 Bucks for the whole weekend.

So about 350. Most of it was on Food, but damn I ate like a king a lot of meals. I also spent a lot on Tea @ starbucks everyday. I had 2 Green Teas a day. I might just bring my own shit next year (hot water heater) and do it myself.

My final total for Fanime 2008 was $644.85.

I plan to surpass that in 2009.

MaruKyuu

I'm a horrible person. I spent $7 in the Dealer's room (two mangas for $4, a magazine for $1, and a $2 tiny ruler that saved me in Geometry).

I didn't eat on Friday or Monday, but I ate one meal during Friday and Saturday, for $5 each.

Fanime entrance fee was $45.

I spent $62.

I wonder if I'll surpass that in 2009...
