It all depends on the quality, style, and uniqueness of the object. Like, I usually spend about $X on these things, but if I found something amazing I'd spend much much more than that.

1. a pair of shoes (not for dance) -- usually $75, but as much as $150
2. a cup of coffee -- usually nothing, but as much as $5.00
3. a haircut -- usually nothing, but as much as $100
4. a pair of earrings -- anywhere from $15 to $500
5. a shirt/blouse -- anywhere from $15 to $100
6. a pair of jeans -- previously about $40, but lately about $125
7. a camera -- $500 or less
8. a cell phone -- $200 or less
9. a salad -- anything from $3 to $20
10. a bottle of water at a club -- usually $1, but as much as $3
11. a watch -- usually nothing, but as much as $100
12. a gift for someone -- depends on the person, as much as $1500 or more for my mom!!

Now, I'm in my 40's and don't have kids or a mortgage, so my spending patterns might be very different from someone who is still a student, or who has several people in their family.
