I like to shoot all kinds of photos, as a hobbyist of course :).. whenever i like to shoot portraits, the 50mm covers it, telephoto 55-250, I even bought a 18-200 Tamron and regret it,

I suggest selling the Tamron 18-200. Especially if you do not need it and regret the purchase. Use the funds to help get a better lens and/or camera.

I suggest checking out the Rebel Forum FAQ for some insight:

All of Canon's 18MP Cameras will have similar image quality. The higher/newer you go, you are basically paying more for features. They are a step up from your current camera. The 750D/760D is another step up form there.

If you are patient and in the US, consider waiting for a good sale on a referb. body/camera at the Canon store.  Watch for prices at canonpricewatch.com.  There can be awesome deals around the holidays.
