I think they're confusing value with price.

Interesting article. I had seen something similar a few years ago so knew quite a few but find it amusing that they consider 'postcard' and 'stamp' to be substances!

What happened to the days of websites that gave you the information in one go rather than having to click on link for the next bloody image? I got bored and gave up.

I believe bull semen is more expensive than printer ink.

Yep, no. 1; I knew it was Saffron too.

My wife chucked my Saffron away last year; "oh there wasn't much left, I thought it was the dregs"!!!!

hehe Contact lenses in essence are very cheap for the manufacturers to produce. They also hold very little mark up for the opticians, the reason they cost so much is due to all the regulation that goes around the sale and supply, MHRA registration ect... don't get me into it. However it leads me up to my point, the most expensive substance known to man, as it costs £Many Billions/No actual weight at all!! is "Red tape" hehe

Razor blades are dirt cheap if you don't fall for the marketing scams.
