Well, if we're going to one-up each other:

I could have got four 645Ds (with lenses) fow what we spent
on the kitchen remodel. Then there was a problem with the
heating which meant it was time to do the re-ducting that
we'd been putting off for years, and a small number of old
windows to be replaced before the tax credit ran out. That
would have covered a couple of K-5s with grips & DA* zooms.

This would have been a bit less of an issue if my wife hadn't
been rather unexpectedly laid off from the job she's had for
the last 12 years (the day after we'd bought her the E-PL1).
No cause for panic, but it does mean discretionary spending
doesn't run to four-figure toys at the moment.
