Here's a starter -
As featured in this Sunday Times' Style supplement:

A Prada scrunchie. £290.

Well that’s fine for a stocking filler I guess grin

This is the worst I’ve seen so far.

They were taking the p, surely?

For all you (small) dog owners -

A dog carrier. £450.

Talking of must have bags, I present -

The poo bag holder. Discretion assured: £20

Massage gun £140. Pounding your pain with a bag of frozen peas is no longer effective.

Actually, I find this quite outrageous but in a smaller scale. £10 for a chocolate spaniel -judge the size from the picture.
Despite this year’s poverty, they’re already out of stock!

Oh he's quite cute Mollygo

I serve in a community shop and am often surprised at the prices people will pay for what I wouldn't dream of
Yesterday someone spent £5 on 2 small rolls of ribbon for wrapping presents.

This is my favourite bag de jour.
As seen with Sarah Jessica Parker.
DH even likes it, which is evidence that he has definitely been spending too much time with me, and is in need of the company of men of a similar vintage

It's the ridiculous Advent calendar s with small pots of cosmetics which are really just samples at upwards of £150 which I find ridiculous.

FannyCornforth Tue 15-Nov-22 04:50:04

BigBertha I totally agree. All those little plastic bottles, so wasteful. And how much stuff are you actually going to like? Who wants a random coloured lip stick or nail varnish?

Ridiculous- and it is impractical and ugly to !boot

But who could eat him?
