OT - $1000 tin can.

epcotisbest · October 2017

Saw on another post where creative people used a tin can as a rain shield for the top of the egg. My wife got the Tiffany Everyday Objects catalog the other day and there were all kinds of useless, stupid expensive stuff in there, but this one stood out. Who buys this kind of stuff?

Probably those who subscribe to any Tiffany catalog...

Funny. Yeah, I don't think she has ever paid more than about $2.49 for a tin can and it came with soup in it.

I've got a box of them. I use them to catch my Blackstone grease.

People with more money than sense. A lot more.

That sort of thing just highlights the need for the peasants to start storming the castles again.

Ayup; there'll be no "trickle-down" when there's $1,000 cans to be had.

That's the trickle catching can.

The tin can sounded like a good deal, but what killed it for me is that it would have cost $45 more for the engraving.

I can't wait for the next rub exchange. I'm gonna include one if those tin cans with a blue stripe.

Based on this I believe @stlcharcoal 's offered price of $100.00 is a bargain

gdenby · October 2017

Why, I'd gladly pay $100 just for the Tiffany blue stripe!

An aside. About 20 years ago, a good friend of mine who spoke 6 languages fluently, and a bit of a few others fell into a spectacular part time job. A couple of times a year, he was paid to spend 2 weeks at 5 star hotels around the world, and write reviews. He mentioned that it was really hard to get used to people for whom money was nothing. People who did not even sign their own checks, or even use a credit card. They had someone(s) who did it for them.

So this stuff has been going on forever, its just getting painfully obvious.

I'm waiting for the Tiffany Christmas catalog and hoping for the telephone tin can collection. One can looks kind of cheap for my tastes

Coming from someone who cooks in a $1000 ceramic pot......that's funny right there.

kl8ton · October 2017

I don't see any reviews on the product. I am not buying unless it does what it is supposed to! Also, I don't see free 2 day shipping as an option.

Have you actually ever seen a cook from HG?

Our new ambassador to the Vatican and the Holy See would love that.
