    Does a €180 pair of pyjamas count?

    Do you wear them to the Spar, when you're buying your Johnny Blue and Dutch Gold?

    I spent 400 euro on a crystal lamp for my parents 25th wedding anniversary this year. They're worth it.

    crystal is sooooo 90's :D

    A bag of kopi luwak coffee for a few hundred dollars. I love coffee and I had to taste it. Spent almost 2 grand on the coffee machine as well. Only area I'm a bit of a posh snob in.

    How was it? Always wanted some honest feedback re that coffee!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,456 ✭✭✭fishy fishy


    Yeah, actually it was worth it and they love it which is all that matters.

    sure they're hardly going to tell you they hate it - they're probably thinking they could have had a glorious weekend away on you, but now they're stuck with a heavy bit of glass that they will have to keep cleaning. :o:o:o

    2 nights in the Ritz Carlton hotel in Enniskerry, including dinner in the Gordon Ramsey restaurant - worth every penny.

    Cheese, wine, make up and meat are things I always spend a lot of money on.

    Not really posh in fairness

    Kind of agree. We tend to only eat meat two-three times a week (like we're designed to!) so I figure its worth paying for something decent when we do buy.

    Re wine, I appreciate a good one, but after the first two glasses, I move onto the cheap plonk as I can't tell the difference after that :o

    €170 for a beige ralph lauren jacket that i wore twice and sold on ebay for €25.

    For some stupid reason, I got bullied by my signifcant other into spending 600 euro on a samsung galaxy s3 on prepay.

    Grand phone but no way was it worth that.

    Six 330ml bottles of the world's best beer for €50. Worth it.

    I bought some Tesco "Finest" ready meals. Do I win? (Oh, it was Dutch Gold btw^, he was locked and the lad in the Offie rode him sideways with it).
