At a time of the year when many workers are driven frantic looking for some family Xmas presents here is a pointer, although some might call it holiday shopping for the one percent. Retail giant Neiman Marcus unveiled its 2014 Christmas Book--a unique collection of some very luxurious and one-of-a-kind gifts and experiences. This type of holiday cheer does not come cheap, however; the ten gifts on the list range from $25,000 to $475,000. 'Ginger Reeder, Neiman Marcus Vice President for Corporate Communications, highlights some of the more unique possibilities available to a few lucky recipients this holiday season. Reeder says this year's list includes more "experiences" than ever before. As opposed to simply purchasing a single item, many options are complete packages, including travel and five-star accommodations, along with a totally unique experience.For instance, for a mere $425,000, there's the chance to attend the legendary Vanity Fair Academy.' (Yahoo Finance, 15 October) For most workers it will be cheap catalogues and hire purchase again this year. RD
