Like I said, too comllicated.Just list it in shillings, then lol ...(shillings!)Okay, so 13.7 Austrian shilllings in one Euro. 1) A piece of furniture our couch was probably 1800 Euro. I bought it together with my bf, so I paid half of the money .
2) A meal at a restaurant 50 Euro, it was at a wedding and I had to pay myself although I was a guest 3) A jacket/coat I think 4000 or 4500 shillings, I will never spend that much money again for a coat. I think I bought it for some of the first money I ever earned myself .
4) A piece of art or print 100 Euro maybe 
5) A pair of shoes maybe 800 shillings 6) A piece of jewelry everything that is expensive I got as a present. Probably 600 shillings
7) A television probably somewhere between 8000 and 12000 Shillings, don't remember [Edited 1/24/08 13:31pm] With a very special thank you to Tina: Is hammer already absolute, how much some people verändern...ICH hope is never so I will be!

Byron said: And what's with so many people spending zero on art! lol...Uncultured heathens.
most of my furniture would be included in the category of art, its my vise some costing great amounts and others not so much but all purchases great and small are worth much more than what I paid for them I'm careful in that sense | |
