UPDATE: Wow! I just tallied up MY downloads...thank GOD for free points from freebie sites!!!!

Ok so I had an idea. If you guys don't like..then it's cool and just lock this. I thought that this would be interesting to just keep a section where we would tally up what we wind up spending all of our points on (or dollars for the PS3).

It would work that if you bought a 2000 Wii Points card, put THAT in the Spending tab. When you spend your points, put that here and let's see how everything turns out at the end of the year about the kind of silly stuff we wound up paying for. This includes all games (for all 3 systems), game content, themes/pics, etc.

Personally, I've fallen into the trap of buying a few things that in the long run weren't worth it :(


Hope this works out. If you like it, hold your places

When you buy points, put that in the Spending Tab thread. "Bought 1600 points, $20". Whenever you download something with your points, put that here. "Viva Pinata Theme.. 150 points" that's all.

Then at the end of the year we'll tally up all of our points (for their respective system) and see how much we downloaded and what we got for all them dollars
