I enjoy coin collecting. My grandfather has always collected coins and I've recently gotten hooked. It doesn't have to cost a lot. I can go to the bank and pick of a box of coin (whichever denomination I'm in the mood for) for exactly face value. A box of cents is $25, a box of nickels is $100, a box of dimes is $250 and boxes of half dollars or quarters are $500.
Once I get a box, I go through and pull out the better coins (there are books to help with this or websites). I keep all interesting coins and try to fill holes in my coin books.
The coins that I don't want/need can be returned to the bank and put straight back into my account (though it's often better to return the coins to a different bank (not just a different branch but a different bank) so that I don't end up searching the same boxes over and over). So most of my money goes back and I can then get another box.
Some things to search for: wheat cents, silver dimes, silver quarters, old coins, error coins, coins with an "s" mint mark - they may be proof coins etc. There's always the chance of finding a real treasure!

My newest and favorite hobby is quilting. I've always loved quilts. Growing up my neighbor (who is now 93!) was always making them and she has given me a few over the years. I'm 23 now and have been quilting for about a year. I know it's kind of an old lady thing. But I like the idea of there being something that I've made around for years to come. The fabric can be expensive or cheap, depending on which you chose and the frame I bought was about $200. But like I said they will last a long time, so to me it's worth it!

Collecting items....(stamps, cards, antiques, coins, comics). When i was 7 years old, i knew some of my friends start collecting stamps. And i was a follower, but when i knew more and more about collecting, i just become crazy about it.
Expensive? I must be honest. Collecting item can be really really expensive. Because you will seek rarest item for your private collection.
You will love to buy than sell. If i count the money that i spent on my life (+/- 20 year collecting) plus interest if i just save them on the bank. Maybe i could buy a house.
But the satisfaction is more than money.
I love singing. When i got stress, i like to sing. Sometimes it will flow out and i become fresh. It's FREE. If nobody like you singing, just singing for yourself. I like to sing a song when riding my motorbike. I sing out loud.

Soccer! I've been interested in soccer since I was little. I am brazilian so I have heard about it a lot in my family. So far it's been expensive, paying for the team and the things I need and such, but it's all worth it.

Origami: Every since I was 5 when my grandpa first taught me how to make a crane. Since then I'm hooked. It teaches me to follow directions and being patient.
Scrapbooking: It can be expensive if you just buy everything all at once. Just pace yourself and the project that you're doing. Just buy a few items at a time.
Baking: It's fun to play with ingredients and see what you can do with them. =)

Strange question.
I love ebaying. 4 years. (Buying and selling.) Did because everybody talks about it. Not too expensive- just watch what your bidding on and postage costs. I would rather buy than sell...
