This topic is something we deal w/ also...I have to agree w/ Sukoshi's Mom on the relative issue..I have never told any of my relatives what I paid, several have said, "WOW! Those dogs are expensive! They go for $400 dollars!"...I'm thinking, "If you only knew."
....but these same people are very regular drinkers & if they add up what the blow getting sloshed every week it would take just a couple months to total what I spent at least I have something to show for my money....
