Would You Pay $300 For A Paper Bag? Expensive Designer Takes On Cheap Everyday Items

How much would you pay for a boomerang? (I know, I know, who is buying a boomerang in 2017?) What about a pair of house slippers? I would bet money that you likely wouldn't want to be charged over $20 for either. But there are designer brands and labels people would spend thousands on for clothing that they're also spending thousands on for everyday items that shouldn't cost more than a little bit. Take for example Chanel's new boomerang that has people talking considering it costs nearly $2,000:

Check out nine other items that cost an arm and a leg that you probably shouldn't go outside of Wal Mart for. But then again, if you've got it, spend, spend, spend why don't you...
