Here is my 1K list of things I have purchased that have cost more than 1K. I will add more as I think of them.

If you notice a trend it is the cars which are all pretty spendy but the last two which we are both driving still are from 1999, so not so bad.

Another trend is 1200, why is my magic number 1200???

1,200 2009 DH Laptop
______ 2008 Sheetrock Basement/Garage
