Another somewhat related luxury is the fact that I won't shop at Walmart due to their race to the bottom business practices that kill the small businesses that were established before they came to the edge of the city. Other than that I look for a bargain like everyone else. |

Re: What's your luxury?
I'm doing the u-brew gig at the moment, $80 gets you 24L of canadian-equivalent; $85 gets you 24L of craft equivalent.
It's rude not to! Also it only lasts about 6-8 weeks so is clearly preservative free.

Life is too short to drink crap beer. I was at an 'establishment' recently to celebrate the 2nd time around nuptials of a friend and the 'establishment' just had Labatt's products and I opted for a 7 up.

Modifications and upgrades for my car. Few hundred here, few hundred there, occasional grand for a bigger turbo. I hope my Wife doesn't ever read this.

Re: What's your luxury?
Proper coffee. Illy or Lavazza espresso beans, ground in a decent burr grinder, and brewed in a steam pressure machine. Takes a little time and effort, but well worth the result.
Although I suppose it's not really that much of a luxury - it's probably significantly less expensive, and certainly much less time-consuming, than buying a mediocre coffee from any of the various drive-through emporia. |

My Toto Neorest toilet. Shame it doesn’t have somewhere to store biscuits.

That doesn't work too well when you construct your dunny in the dark, and find out on first use that it's on an ant hill. |
