Bubba136 Posted December 11, 2003 Posted December 11, 2003 For $65.00 a box, they'd better be good (no indication of how many cookies in each box). I'd much rather buy a good pair of heels to wear for $65 than to pay that much for cookies. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
shyguy Posted December 11, 2003 Posted December 11, 2003 Bubba136 says I'd much rather buy a good pair of heels to wear for $65 than to pay that much for cookies. the cookies would taste better tho (one hopes anyway) He was so narrow minded he could see through a keyhole with both eyes.

Rockpup Posted December 11, 2003 Author Posted December 11, 2003 Well, needless markup... er... neiman marcus has never been known for 'value' shopping.. Just thought it was an interesting item up for sale. Jim (formerly known as "JimC")
PJ Posted December 11, 2003 Posted December 11, 2003 For $65.00 a box, they'd better be good (no indication of how many cookies in each box). In the item description, it starts out "Nine pair of delectable shoes...". That would mean nine times two or 18 cookies in a box. And at $65.00 per box, that means each cookie costs $3.61. YIKES !!! click .... click .... click .... The sensual sound of stiletto heels on a hard surface.
Bubba136 Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 Opps! You're right. It does say "Nine pair of delectable shoes." I think Manolo's name caught my attention to a degree that I overlooked the number of pair included. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public.
TXT-1 Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 I'm not paying $130 australian for a box of biscuts! thats absurd! what are they gold plated (crunch, crunch what the ?....) lol later, TXT-1
PJ Posted December 12, 2003 Posted December 12, 2003 TXT-1; How did you come up with a price of $130.00 AUSTRALIAN ? On December 11, 2003, $1.00 (USA) = $1.35 (AUSTRALIAN) So one box of cookies would cost $65.00 (USA) or $87.94 (AUSTRALIAN). Would you buy these cookies for that price? ============================================== Here are some other currency equivalents: one box of these cookies will cost you -- 53.21 Euro's 85.67 Canadian dollars 37.23 British pounds For other currencies, check out http://www.xe.com/ucc/ click .... click .... click ....
