If you buy regular coffee at stores, shops, catering trucks etc., you could save probably $1.00 to $1.50 A day if you make it at home. If you buy the fancy coffees, you could probably save from $3.00 to $5.00 per day or more if you forgo them. Eat out at restaurants less frequently. Meals at home are usually much less. If possible, ride a bike or walk to work a day or two per week. You might be able to save enough in a year to buy one.

I worked a lot of overtime to get mine, and also got lucky to get in on a group buy.
If you really want one just tell yourself to keep saving, it will come.
Best of luck to ya!

Indeed. And another thing; how to avoid getting killed by wife/girlfriend/mother if (when) she finds out about the price tag...

It's easy, stay away from here long enough until you have saved the amount you need, see how simple that is?

Begin to recognize that the so-called "bare necessities" such as food and heat (I was about to say light but, really!!!) must now occupy second place to the real essential---the Polarion!! From that point the savings travel route is (relatively) painless.:devil:

Turn your electricity off at home, use your HID to light the house.
Actually walk around your house and unplug any charger you can find that doesn't need to be plugged in, those bricks each take a few watts and over a month really add up.

I would have to sell all of my other lights, obtain a large inheritance, or get a job that pays over $100K a year and none of that is likely to happen anytime soon! :ironic:
kidney sales, fluid donation (plasma or "otherwise"), winning the lotto, invest in CREE, go hunting (80lbs of meat for a $1 bullet is a GREAT deal), grow veggies around the house, sue mcdonald's for their coffee being hot, or their food making you fat, invent teleportation,
really the list goes on for awhile, lol, the best thing that i have found was set up a savings account that gets $XXX from your paycheck without you ever seeing it, and then make sure that the account is not accessible without going into the bank to take money out (ATMs make it too easy)

The real answer that no one wants to admit is "sell your sperm." There. I said it. You guys can come out of the closet. 
$28,000 truck, gas, pre-season scouting, trailer, camp gear, optics, bows, rifles, radios, gps, food and drink for two weeks, possible meat storage and butcher fees = $50 a pound venison. Elk meat ratios are a big better though.
Hunting aint about the meat brother. $28,000 truck, gas, pre-season scouting, trailer, camp gear, optics, bows, rifles, radios, gps, food and drink for two weeks, possible meat storage and butcher fees = $50 a pound venison. Elk meat ratios are a big better though.
hahah well i have hunted the same stand for 10 years and produced every year, gutting, skinning, boning out, grinding the burger meat, are all done in out barn by hand, so the ratio of meat per dollar is lower...work is longer, but the results are cheaper it no one touches your deer from field to freezer
Same hear brother... except for my last elk that I got early in the season. In order to stay up hunting and help my friends, it was taken to the butcher in the nearest town. They even delivered the meat for free at a meeting place in my city, all 440 lbs of it! 
Yummy!
Yummy!
Haha. I actually consulted my girlfriend before purchasing my HellFighter... and she gave me the *nod*
Yeah, the "It better be Diamonds for my Birthday" nod.... :devil:
What does Elk taste like? And don't say the proverbial answer everyone always gives: "chicken.'
I've never had venison either...so I may not have a wide enough palate to appreciate your description.

it tastes like everything that is man...actually i don't know, i have had caribou stew and elk jerky and sausage, never just the meat alone, but it was all delicious. Venison can vary widely by region, i hear up in Canada (Saskatchewan) its very bitter because they eat acorns and moss all winter, but down in MI they eat corn out of the standing fields all winter so they taste like lean manly beef:devil: which is exactly what people with a polarion need to be eating (see how i brought it back on topic)
