    Not even. She bought a regular Le Creuset 14 oz cocotte which is just a nice normal sub-$50 Dutch oven, not even one of the $300 ones. Currently on sale for $36 on the manufacturer website with free shipping. Not exactly extravagantly overpriced.

    If you want to criticise something, go after the kind of overpriced $160 pan

    Or better yet, the extremely overpriced matching serving bowl that costed $367

    She basically just went on an average Wiilliams-Sonoma shopping trip, which is for upper middle-class suckers sure but like ultimately who gives a shit if someone pays double for some cookware?

      Thanks for the info; Big L for me.

      As for double price for cookware; I’m ngl if I’m experiencing unprecedented CoL, have no job or housing security, and have no prospects for the future (all of which are entirely out my control) I would be kinda mad if my VP decided to buy some bougie shit. After all, my money is paying for that lifestyle and not my or other’s survival.
