I usually throttle my "fun spending" from October-December, reserving funds for the holidays. February is usually when I go hog-wild. By then I'll have some Christmas $$$, my January birthday will have passed and Chinese new year provides a little more free-spending $$$ for me myself and I :twothumbs.
For me...
M60 (or M30)
Zebralight, the 16340 version
I really want to get a quality Chinese light... P10C2, Fenix T1, Jetbeam, Tablo...etc... The $45 T1 is tugging HARD at the wallet, love the natural typeIII finish.
I always seem to find a little $$ for some DX junk here and there.
