So lets say Member X wants a new mixer or whatever and the range is roughly a thousand bucks.Me,member X and nine others would all chip in $100 and Dr.Si,I mean member X would have a shiny new mixer that would have cost a $1000 out of pocket.This trend continues and everyone gets what they want...kind of like layway.

I know mexican familys do something like this...

Anybody with a similar idea or variation to this?

Who's going to want to spend money on other people's stuff again?
