In the wake of all this talk regarding the insane Calgary market, ridiculous salaries and the overall, creeping consumerism that seems to be invading our fine city's sub-concious, what is the one thing in the past year that you've purchased that is so grotesque, so over the top that you're slightly ashamed to admit it?

For me, its a no-brainer. My wife actually had a "doggie-shower" installed in our downstairs cloak room. She was sick and tired of washing our two huge labs in the guest bathroom. I will admit that I used to take some peverse pleasure knowing that her leech of a sister (who stayed with us after University for seven months rent-free) was unknowingly taking long baths in there.
