Not sure what to explain, really, but even with points, I don't have the money to just throw around for new purchases, even once a month. As much as I would like to, it's just not as possible and I'd prefer saving up for something I'd really like to try, you know? Now, if only I could purchase once a month...
But, I agree! Eden is a magnificent place. I love the points program and how much Eden gives back to its contributors. Love this place.

On average, once a month or so.
12/05/2011
I have had the same experience as you, I have bought more toys in the couple months I have been using the Eden Points program than I used to in a year. Love EF and the community.
12/06/2011
It honestly depends. Sometimes I will buy twice a month or once a month... sometimes not at all.
12/06/2011
I've only been on EF since August 31st. I've placed five orders so far. I wouldn't have known that if this question hadn't been asked. Do I think that is a lot, yes. Do I care, no. I know I've spent a bit of money for these orders, but I'm more than satisfied with the return on my investment. The points program hasn't really had any bearing on my purchases or activity either. I really like this site, in all aspects. I'm sure I'll be a regular shopper here for a long time.
12/06/2011
It depends on what deals are going on or if my wife finds something she just has to have. On average, I'd say about twice a month. This month will be two, maybe even three. I am planning a surprise package for her for Christmas to give to her on our vacation.
12/06/2011
Since I live in the UK, I only buy from Eden when I have a review assignment, so that I can take advantage of the free shipping. So less than once a month, as I don't request assignments every month.
12/06/2011
2-3 times a year
12/06/2011
I am the one that likes to play with toys more than my wife. Because of limited funds I feel guilty if I buy too often. Personally I could get something new each month for us to play with but I think I would get funny looks when the credit card bill would come. I like expensive toys...
12/06/2011
We wish to buy one a week, but for restrictions here we can't
but for one year we got 8. So the average will be less than one per month.

With the points and the buy out im ordering a new toy from here every two weeks now. lol Its becoming an obsession..Damn you Eden. lol
12/06/2011
Hard for me to say. Used a lot of points this past week but sometimes I go months without buying any
12/07/2011
I don't have the money to buy more than once every two months or so. Even so, I have quite the collection. The points program definitely helps too. It really can take the sting out of those luxury purchases.
12/07/2011
I buy toys when I find something I like and have points... That's about, every few months. And I make sure i have enough points to get the combination deals and combine shipping on more than one toy.
12/07/2011
I've only been with Eden since early 2010, but I definitely don't make a purchase every month. I've probably made four purchases each year, excluding free assignments. I do feel pretty guilty as well, mostly because I have limited funds and I prefer the quality of more expensive toys. That's where points come in really handy. I've saved a lot on hundred dollar dildos.

I tend to farm my points monthly, then buy a nice big purchase all at once, adding my own $ to the pot. I've spent a few hundred dollars, points and other, in the last 3 months. I have a dozen reviews still to do before I allow myself another cache.

12/07/2011
I buy them religiously, personally.
12/07/2011
It used to be quite often, but now I'm becoming more picky, and with customs slamming us Canadians with import fees, I don't know how much I will be ordering anymore.
12/08/2011
I hate that customs is slamming canadians with fees; that's no fun. I order about once a month.
12/08/2011
Every couple of months. Gotta keep things spicy.
12/09/2011
once a month

I don't buy toys very often. My money is spread incredibly thin just to cover the necessities. But, when my lover and I have the disposable income, we love to buy new toys.
03/05/2012
I buy them on average every month with some discounts and points but i try to save for something nice now since my toys last a while.
03/07/2012
Mines turning into about once a month. Eden definitely helps feed my addiction lol!
03/07/2012
I usually rack up points for a month then splurge on a large order.
03/11/2012
If I want something, and have the money to buy it, I get it. It's not very often though.
04/03/2012
Using the internet to make purchases, I don't buy new stuff every month.. I like to pay big money only once, and pay shipping fees only once too.
04/09/2012
I'm the only one who buys them so it's about one per year and a new UR3 pussy when the old one falls apart.

Once a month, maybe less. I'm starting to get a feel for Eden's specials, so I try to hold out until the item I want is really cheap...bad part is that it usually sells out fast.
04/22/2012
I order once every 3-6 months. I made my orders big and make them count!

It honestly all depends. We get our free item to try and write a review on every time we are eligible, but otherwise we wait until we have the money (getting married soon, so money is tight at the moment). We will splurge every now and then, especially for really good sales or something we know we like and will use.
06/03/2012
Probably once a month, more when I have cash to splurge
06/03/2012
i just started buying toys more regularly
06/13/2012
We justed started buying more often. Our last order was pretty big but with the help of points and the 20% discount offered at the time we got them really cheap.
06/16/2012
I'll say that right now my average is once a month. I think I'm due now for another purchase. Time to go shopping !!

Several times a year. Not too much. My husband did go through a phase where he was buying one almost every week. Now I feel like we have almost one of each and don't purchase anything unless it looks exceptional
06/26/2012
I don't often have money to buy toys, so it's typically only when I get extra funds (tax returns, extra income, etc) that I make those types of purchases. Since joining Edenfantasys, I've made a few more because I can knock the price down a lot with points or special deals.
I would love to be able to make purchases more often, but even when prices are low, I can't usually justify paying shipping to make a small purchase, so I tend to save up to buy instead.

I buy too much too often, as I still have things that I've never used!
07/06/2012
I buy when I need new ones, wanna try new ones, and have the money.
07/19/2012
Every 2 or 3 months I place a big order. I love making big orders and getting lots of new stuff all at once rather than just one or two things at a time. I love having so many thing to chose from. My husband always says "so what do you have in your box of trix this time"

I've found my holy grail toy in the wevibe 3. I don't really want or need other toys.lol.

Whenever I see something I love (or a sale you can't pass up)
09/01/2012
about every 2 weeks
11/14/2012
Well I get monthly review assignments but they are free. Otherwise we order every month to three months on average. With the review assignments it makes it easier for us to keep earning points and placing larger orders less often.

I will be buying toys a lot more often since I've found Eden. The points program is a huge incentive. I love this place, the community is so fun too! I wish I could buy new toys once a month but right now I don't have the funds to do that. Maybe someday soon!

I tend to buy expensive toys on the premise that "you get what you pay for", which so far has come true! My Omax rechargeable lasted me over 5 years, I have just bought a Lelo Elise 2 to compliment my Lelo Luna Beads. I don't expect to have to fork out for new toys for years now.

I think I average once every other month. But it may be up to once a month.

Once a month and if I want it bad enough, twice. Even if I have to pay full price. Hey I don't own a car, I need to spend my money on something I enjoy.

Not often anymore, used to be fairly often in the beginning of our relationship. Now that I stay home we're down to one income so we have even less money to spend on things. But there are so many new things out I want to try though, so I'll be trying to find money (and saving my points!) for those things.

03/03/2013
Maybe once a week, or every two weeks. It's not always a toy. It can be porn, lingerie, things exclusively for sensory play. Last weekend I bought the Ryder plug, and this weekend I bought the Leo and some other things. It varies, but I buy things for the bedroom, fairly often. Just toys? I'd say once every two weeks to a month, in general.
03/03/2013
2-3 times a year
03/03/2013
I spent more when I was first getting into toys. I did not know what would work for me so I had to try a few different things till I found what worked. If I already have one of that type/style it is hard to justify buying a new one.
As I have gotten more experience and learned more through reviews on EF, I buy less but higher quality and higher price toys. I still buy lingerie often.

We buy as often as we can afford too. Usually when we buy we look for very specific things and then go from there. So we usually but 1-2 months.
11/26/2016
We buy what we need. It's just that sometimes we're very needy. And when one breaks down. Old faithful Billy just stopped accepting a charge. Guess it's time to get one of the latest and greatest Lelo toys.
Also looking at some of the more featured shape theme dildos at BD make certain orifices tingle. So into the cart it /they go
Just don't ask how many dil 's are in our collection

I would get toys when needed, when I have space in my apt. That would be space to be able to ' hide' them or at least get them out of sight. Most seem to be working right now, and most are silicone, thankfully. Are there any dildos over 6" wide?

I spent waaaay too much in 2011. But now that I have a good, core collection of quality toys, I have cut back a lot, and limited myself to what I can buy with points. I had three things happen that really made the spending go crazy: discovering that my extensive leather bdsm collection had gotten mold to it, which required replacing a lot of items, trying out glass for the first time, and discovering LUXURY TOYS!!!!
Once I discovered the difference between a luxury vibrator and a cheap battery operated toy that burns out in a few months, I went a little nuts with buying good luxury toys and glass dildos, as well as a few other quality dildos in other materials. I definitely need to do better in 2012 though.

12/06/2011
I spend between $300 - $600 every month.
I'm getting to the stage where I'm having trouble finding luxury toys I must have - I have most that I want. Having to purchase those other things I've put off... like lingerie.

12/06/2011
most of my costs are lingerie related.
12/08/2011
Yeah, depends on if you count lingerie and lubes and stuff. I spent a TON our first year being married, but now it is kind of leveled out. And thank goodness for the review program and eden points to make things more cost effective!
12/09/2011
Thanks to EdenPoints I don't have to spend any money! But in costs, it's probably about 300+ a year.
12/09/2011
How often I buy toys varies.
Since October, I've placed 4 orders on EF.
