Coachella Calculator

[LickTheLizzard]

ok, i got it down to about $195, I went a little merch crazy the first time around.

[artisticcreator]

That's pretty cool! $461 without preshow drinks, and stuff!

[SeantheJeweler]

Hahaha yeah i think I get the win for most money wasted.....$454.50 with the $65 buffer for "emergencies and unforseen purchases" which could easily amount to more than $65 hahaha I doubt I will spend that much, I think I did $300 last year....not really sure

[Ha.SK]

138 it said...but ill be drinking more then 2 beers a day

[soybean]

$153
That's probably pretty close.

[boarderwoozel3]

Pretty accurate. About what I was planning on bringing/spending before. A plurality being on booze, naturally.

Added a PDF/Save feature, so now if you wanted, you could print your "guide" out to help you out during the weekend and compare it to what you actually end up spending. Glad everyone has found this really helpful.

[FahadiOo]

$12 for a Cocktail???

[menikmati]

I wouldn't expect anything less, just sayin...

[busychild]

556 wow... haha maybe i need to rethink drinking 10 beers a day

[djbionik]

I love the calculator!

What about the ice calculation? And some people buy the breakfast/bloody mary bar. (though I will not since my estimate is $144. Keeping it cheap) I'm bringing about that much. Hope I stick with it.

Buying the emek poster? +$150

[menikmati]

Is there an Emek poster this year? I would add that if there is. And I was thinking about the ice thing, and general supplies...should I add a trip to general store in there or something?

[cutterbutter]

i don't believe there is an Emek poster this year. He's busy with european festivals or smth. But I'm sure there will be some uber expensive merch item to take its place. I hope for a nice limited $30-$50 poster.

[electrocute]

I'm expecting to spend about $200 this year, thanks to having the ability to actually bring a reasonable amount of food for good meals at our campsite, and a lot of booze this time. Definitely gonna skip the beer gardens this year unless I am desperate, haha. I usually pick carefully on shirts and records and don't buy anything outrageously expensive I know I can get at home for less. Otherwise it's all about the water and tasty foods as needed.

A newer, more awesome, totally better version of the Coachella Calculator is in the works and will be launched "soon" to help you all....in the meantime, just curious if any of you out there have tips/suggestions for improvements? (or not)

Don't use it to force your lifestyle down people's throats this time

[Stickjohn]

Maybe some way to address the campground stores? Ice is probably the most common purchase. I plan pretty carefully but have had to buy batteries and cigs. It seems like a lot of people buy sunglasses and hats.

Ralph's calculator?

[Goatchella]

extra hundie to spend on hipster sluts

[NachoCat]

you are doing it wrong

[Goatchella]

[Goatchella]

Drugs
Tips for food and drink vendors
Ice

maybe a variety of general store options ranging from "I just need that one thing I inevitably will forget" to "oh shit, I need a tent and...everything"

So what were the lines like for free water this year?

[Goatchella]

free water by sahara was kinda crowded but not bad.

Good suggestions.

Also, you could differentiate camping vs hotel vs house rental. Because if you're driving around town and eating breakfast at a restaurant and whatnot, this calculator is completely irrelevant.
