You Big Spender
What's the most you ever dropped down for an item by paying in cold hard cash, debit or credit cards? Not incl. financing a car or a mortgage on a house. But if you happened to have that kind of cash to drop on a new car or a house, I'd like to know where you live.

$2400 on an engagement ring.
