What is expensive but worth every penny?

Following on from the previous thread about expensive purchases that weren't worth it, what is expensive but actually is worth it? What do you own or have done that is very expensive but you don't regret it at all?

My mulberry handbag. I wanted one for years and I finally finally! Managed to get one. After a pay out

It’s like a teal rucksack. I use it all the time. I love it. I don’t care about the resale. Though I do look after it so much. It’s my pride and joy. I adore it. I wouldn’t sell it I don’t think. Oh. I love it x

Various crafting courses, sewing, willow weaving my latest and favourite. Something that’s just for me, an indulgence and an escape.

I spent a few days in Edinburgh last year and got the taste for lorne (square) sausage. You can't get it anywhere in my area. Donald Russell the online butcher does it but they charge £2 per pack...and £10 p&p. (Free p&p kicks in at £50). So I pay way over the odds for lorne sausage. I order other bits like bacon and sausages but I rarely make that £50 minimum, damn them. I am a mug.
Iceland sell lorne sausage.
