Not expensive (€10) but Avoca do a small plastic case filled with air, it's the gift for someone who has everything

Tea, anywhere.

It's only hot water and a bag and yet you'll pay over a euro...EACH AND EVERYTIME.

The arsehole actually bought one, burnt it and then reviewed it.

WTF!!!

A bottle of wine in any half decent restaurant.

The mark up is borderline criminal, doesn't stop the pretentious morons paying it though!

Printer ink.

Think I worked out once that its approx 1000 times more expensive than heating oil.

2nd highest scoring forward though, a good ~20 points ahead of Aguero.

Some women's cosmetics can be hilariously priced.

When I was younger I got sucked in by an aggressive salesperson in Brown Thomas and ended up with a small tub of Creme de la Mer moisturiser for my woes. A little bit bigger than a tin of vaseline and it set me back €200!

It turned out to be so heavy and oily that I had a massive break-out all over my face and never looked at the stuff again.

Here's a picture from urban outfitters of paper bags that were reduced to €3.50 for about 8 of them. They had been a euro a bag or something. Just to be clear - they were exactly the type of paper bags you'd get when you buy a birthday card for someone. They were reduced from about a euro or thereabouts per bag. I still don't believe anyone actually bought them. They probably just used them themselves in the end for people who bad just bought a card.

Obvious answer here would be cinema popcorn.

Razor blades. I decided to grow a beard rather than pay nearly €20 for a few blades. Ridiculously overpriced.

Urban outfitters sell 'special' foreign oreo flavours, like with a mint filling instead of white creme, and they have japanese writing all over them to make them look cool. These are just your regular supermarket sized oreo pack as well.They were either 12 euro or 18 euro ,either way, nauseating

Double edged razor ftw. Blades are a few cents each, much closer shave and much better for your skin.

Agree..Gillette pure Rob dogs
That's why I shopped around and found that D/E blades work out a cents each and give a better shave.Less irritation and no ingrown hairs that muliblade razors can cause :rolleyes:

Aldi blades for me, exact same as Gillette and their ilk. I'll be fooked if I'm going to subsidise some overpaid sports persons lifestyle

After looking at items like those on Amazon my hand shakes as a double check I have "1 Click Ordering" switched OFF!

The similar products at the bottom of the page has a 4.5m cable for £6.95.
I'd personally just move my telly 1/2m closer and save the 2 grand:D

I bought a pack of cigarettes in Laos for 2,000 kip. At the time, that was less than 20 cents. So like a cent per cigarette. Awful things.

Found them on Google. http://www.tttt.ru/31208.jpg

I smoked them when I was there. I quite liked them. And the ones in the beige pack.

My problem is that I seem to be unable to shave without cutting the face off myself when I use anything but a Gillette.

I usually try and get 4-5 months use out of each blade though so don't spend as much on them as some folk. Although perhaps that's a bit manky? Is it..:P

Actually, reading the review, the arsehole actually has a history of buying them, and now they changed there product and he's not happy. He needs a slap.

Get a razerpit

I saw it mentioned here and bought one. Works really well. I shave my head too so I fly through blades. And I'd probably slice off half my head with a double sided blade.

Anyone with time to kill and the Monday blues I recommend reading the product reviews for that. Absolutely brilliant.

One quiet evening after the wife had finished her daily nagging routine I thought it would be a good idea to invite her to join me to watch my gentleman's blu-rays with me, and she accepted the invitation. After a good evening of watching the incredible quality movies we went to bed and thought nothing of it. A few weeks later my wife started feeling a bit ill, so we took her to the doctor to have him take a look. After an hour or so the doctor came out, shook my hand and congratulated me on conceiving our first child. But we had neglected to do the required process for this to happen for quite some time. Initially I suspected my wife had been unfaithful but after 9 months a beautiful baby boy was born. But he didn't look like me, I recognised the face though. I pulled out my (now very large) blu-ray collection and put on the film we had on the night my wife joined me in my hobby, and my son looked exactly like the leading actor. Yes this HDMI cable made my films so clear and realistic, it made my wife pregnant. Thank-you Audio Quest for making such a top quality cable.

:pac:
