Somewhere around $1000 is the most I've dropped in one day, and that was a
while back... I've slowed down a lot from 2 years ago.  There was a period
of about 6 months where I dropped an easy 2 grand every month, probably more.

Right now, I average less than 300 a month, probably much less.

$300 for an SES, but I was in a hurry (it was for my wife on our anniversary).
