Hey does anyone here collect something they like?
I used to collect stamps and stickers but I stoped and gave my stamp and stickers to fam.
I collect something else now it's not weird but it's different. I'm not going to say what it is till a few other people post first.

| Ok you know those little booklets that you get at Hollywood Video? The ones that give you a list of what movies will be out that month. Anyway I clip out the movies I plan on seeing with the liitle info, so latter in years to come I'll look back and think wow that movies so old...I'm so old! I also cut around the little picture of the movie ( the picture on the DVD cover) and when I have a bunch of different ones I cover little boxes with them using "Mod Podge" it's like a glue but after it dries it's clear and glossy. So you have a cute box with little pictures of your favorite movies. I hope you guy's get what I mean, I wish I had a picture to show you...well maybe sometime in the future. |

I don't collect anything deliberately, but I tend to prefer to have things in complete sets. For example, if I get a book , and its part of a series, I have to have the rest of the series- even if I have no intention of reading the books.
Other than that, I seem to have amassed a small collection of stuffed tigers. I didn't mean to, it just kind happened. |

I'm collecting the state quarters. They aren't worth anything other then 25 cents, but thats ok because I just like the pictures on them. I use to collect tiger stuff, I love tigers, but I don't really do that anymore. I also have a pertty big collection of little stuffed animals, the kind you get out of the claw machine at the store. I use to be pretty good at getting stuff out of thoes.

Oh I like those claw machines, I use to be pretty good too, I have quite a bit of Betty Boop's that I've won, but I haven't played one of those in a while, there hasn't been anything good in them...plus I haven't had any change laying around. |

I collect...
... Postcards (from places I've traveled to).
... Ticket stubs (from movies, plays, and concerts I've been to).
... CDs (running out of places to stow them!).
... Books (because I think I need a copy of every really good book I've read).
... Art supplies (though I actually do use them. I buy way too many!).

Well, I'm a packrat, so basically everything . Currently I'm not collecting anything ravenously, but in the past I've collected a lot of stuff. Pokemon cards, Yu-gi-oh cards, stamps, pogs, bugs , rocks, video game stuff and games, etc.
Currently I have a 50 state quarters collection and a small book collection though. And I keep all my concert tickets and movie tickets and put them on my bulletin board. I also have a small Hard Rock Cafe collection.
My favorite thing to collect really is Memories from vacations. Like I just went to Gatlinburg. I won't throw anything away(well unless it's blatantly trash, but even then sometimes I keep it ). Like I brought home a bunch of those slips from the advertisement box, and I kept a bunch of crafts I did I my day camp. And a bunch of other assorted things. Plus I took over 300 pictures which are just as good.

I have a ton of Barbies, though I don't collect them anymore. I need to go through them and get rid of a couple hundred. And costume jewelry.
Also, Coach purses. I'm a thrifty shopper, except when it comes to handbags!
And I don't really "collect" craft supplies, but I have enough that it seems like I do! |
