No, we're not joking. This gold toilet roll took 4 years to make and is made from 22ct gold. It went on sale for around £825,839. The toilet paper is delivered personally along with a bottle of champagne. Supposedly it takes you to a new level of sophistication.

These pills contain 24ct gold leaf and their sole purpose is to make your excretions sparkly. At around $425 a pop, you’ve really got to have nothing better to spend your money on. Which was the sole artistic purpose of this product.
One of the creators of the pills said: “Like celebrity and celebrity culture, demand for luxury items is completely created. Like an addict, all I want is more.” The creators went on to make more gifts ‘for the man that has everything.’
What makes it so expensive? It contains edible gold, caviar, a replica Faberge egg, and, a non-edible 2ct diamond.
