Default 2008 Needless Markup Christmas List!
Can't find that perfect gift for that hard to shop for someone? Neiman Marcus just might have what you are looking for! Have a few thousand dollars laying around you don't know what to do with? Want to give that special someone just the right decadent gift?

Here are some ideas!

Into golf - have a lot of space you need landscaped?
JACK NICKLAUS CUSTOM BACKYARD GOLF COURSE: Beginning at $1,000,000

Now this one is really inexpensive and for the sharing couple:
HIS & HERS LIFE-SIZE LEGO(R) SCULPTURES: $60,000 each

Adult toys?
M-VELOPE(R) TRANSFORMABLE STRUCTURE: $100,000

For the beer lover in every crowd!
AUTHENTIC GUINNESS(R) HOME PUB: $250,000

The Ultimate in every turnkey homeowner's dream!!!
THREE CHIMNEYS THOROUGHBRED RACING PACKAGE: $10,000,000

I can see why they're doing this.....they have lost more money than any other retailer this year (as reported by our local ABC news station here).

I looked at the article and I've never seen so much useless stuff in one place in a long time!!

You obviously don't follow Neiman Marcus' Christmas catalog every year! It's a hoot!

You're obviously right.........this girl doesn't have the money to even look at those things. And even if I did....I still wouldn't!

They wouldn't happen to have anything made by North American Aviation on-sale, whould they?

I would "settle" for a fixer-upper, since my plans from a few years ago were dashed.

I wonder if my "Stimulus Check" could cover the cost.
