What is your "inexpensive" hobby that turned out to be expensive/ you gradually invested lots of money into?

Edit: so it turns out that every hobby can be expensive if you do it long enough.

Also I love how you talk about your hobby as some addicts.

Fish tank.

how come?

"Hey, we got a goldfish. Let's put him in a goldfish bowl"

"Turns out a goldfish needs 20gal at least."

"Apparently we should get a bubbler to oxygenate the water"

"We need how many water tests and chemicals to keep the biome healthy?!"

"He looks bored. Let's get some decorations. Just a few."

"He's had the pirate theme going for a while. Let's swap it out with the SpongeBob set."

"If we got a bigger tank he could have a friend."

Etc.
