Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

    For me it is maybe camping.

    I just tested my new sleeping bag - under 0.5kg rated to -5°C. And realised that I bought/ replaced lots of gear to higher quality gear over few years.

        It is some feather filled bag (300g). But it is not durable, the fabric that holds it is really thin.

        I just picked what my older brother got (but with more filling).

        At 5°C it is still in the boxers range inside. The e-shop I bought it from had some details about the sleeping bags like quality of feathers and filling quantity. This one had 900 in quality and 300g of filling.

      Oh my! I spent so much on camping! I get so excited by all the gadgets that people come up with.
