Are my eyes working properly?

Yes if they are going to Butlins.

With that amount of disposable income Butlin's goes to them !

No, but can any off-the-peg, mass produced pair of shoes really offer so much in terms of comfort, lifespan, utility etc that could justify that sort of price tag? I could afford to spend that on shoes if I really wanted, but I simply don't see how they offer any value. As another poster has said, you could get a secondhand car for that - in fact every car bar one that I have ever bought cost less secondhand than the price of those shoes. Being able to afford something doesn't mean you should buy it anyway - regardless of how poor value it may be.

Is a pint of beer good value.

The stuff I drink is excellent value at the prices I pay, and it's proper beer not gassy fizz.

In your opinion, I have friends who do not touch booze and would say you are wasting money, do you see how it works.

Very much doubt it

Are they the sort of people who would buy bottled water, rather than just drink what comes out of the tap? That to me is the ultimate waste of money beverage!

No they are not that sort of people.

Although I understand where you are coming from, I hate to buy bottled water, what do you do if you're out & about & are thirsty?

Drink out of a puddle, after all it's free?

It's like inventing sliced bread again when I was a kid they were everywhere, along with waste paper bins, before they can litter bins & disappeared

Drop the two zeros from that and I may buy them.
