From the "what I know for sure" column on page 280 of the December 2008 issue of "O" magazine, which features as one of its cover stories an article entitled "Celebrating with more meaning (and less money)":
Total value of one of each of the 58 items featured in "the O list (Where to Buy It Guide)" on page 101 of the same issue, not including any monthly subscription fees: $4096.
My personal favourites were the pet camera ($99.95) and the brownies ($71 for 2 dozen).

We have a wake-up-call opportunity to get real and be real with each other by finding ways to show love, give love, be love without spending a lot of money. It's a chance for us to look beneath the surface, into the culture of excessive more, more, moreness that got us into this mess.
