You own a pair of $1,000 shoes?
I was shoe shopping in Singapore - most of the shoes in this shop were about $150 - so grabbed a bunch and tried them on and settled on a pair.
Got the the checkout and she rung up $650. What do you do? Say "shit, I ain't paying $650 for them?" or hold up your head and say "sure, $650 - you take Amex?"
Like a dick, I took option 2....
