Yesterday, Oprah taped her annual favorite things episode. In this episode Oprah gives away tons of free stuff to her audience and they scream like banshees for an entire hour.
Luckily this year the recipients were not you typical bored, affluent, Chicago suburb housewives but about 300 people who were recognized for helping victims after Hurricane Katrina.
Each guest got a diamond watch, a Burberry duffel coat, a Ralph Lauren Black Label cashmere sweater, and the new video iPod, among other stuff.
Total damage: $2.1m worth of goods (provided by the companies), an average of about $7,000 per person.
The stupid school teachers from last year's episode got more than twice that much.
