Let's face it -- there's a certain appeal to buying stupid things just because you can. Who among us hasn't vacantly flipped through a SkyMall catalog and imagined a life where buying something out of a SkyMall catalog was a reasonable decision? However, once we land back on planet Earth and get back to our real lives where we have to decide whether to pay the electric bill or the phone bill this month, we know useless overpriced junk when we see it. The following expensive, ridiculous products are made for people who only know "paying bills" as the time they hired two guys named William to install a floating bar in their swimming pool.

9 A $100 Tube Of Toothpaste

Those who've wondered what it's like to actually pour money down the drain can now experience the sensation right from the comfort of their bathrooms. The good people at Theodent have created a "luxury" toothpaste that, at $100 for a 3.4 ounce tube, lets you scrub your teeth with ten thousand pennies. Called "Theodent 300" and offering vague "clinical strength," the tube itself looks like it was invented by a cartoon rich person just before they threatened to shut down the local rec center.

Like most activities involving $100 and putting stuff in your mouth, brushing with Theodent is a little dodgy. Instead of fluoride, Theodent contains a proprietary substance called "Rennou," which is derived from cocoa plants and will -- allegedly -- keep your teeth from rotting and help get Kool-Aid stains off your tongue.

If you're not up for diving head first into the world of luxury toothpaste, you can play in the shallow end with the Classic or Kids versions of Theodent, which are available on Amazon for a more comfortable $12 or $13. The kids' stuff tastes like chocolate, so good luck teaching them not to eat it.
