Christmas crackers are a festive staple, with paper hats, bad jokes and often-useless gifts, but this year, luxury department store Harrods is selling a posh box for a whopping \u00a3750.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The eye-watering price for just six crackers means customers will be paying \u00a3125 per party favour.\u00a0<\/p>\n
But the box does contain designer gear, gift vouchers and perfume – as well as the gift of not having to fake laugh at terrible quips.<\/p>\n
Those who pull the cracker on Christmas Day will find either an Aspinal of London\u00a0heart keyring, a Wolf 1834 card holder, a Gingerlily silk eye mask, a silver card holder by Christofle, a 15ml vial of Trudon perfume or a Dr. Vranjes candle.<\/p>\n
Also tucked inside will be a \u00a350 gift voucher for whichever designer brand the treat they managed to grab is from.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This year luxury department store Harrods is selling a box of crackers for a whopping \u00a3750<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But the box does contain designer gear, gift vouchers and perfume – as well as the gift of not having to fake laugh at terrible quips<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Those who pull the cracker on Christmas Day will find either an Aspinal of London heart keyring, a Wolf 1834 card holder, a Gingerlily silk eye mask, a silver card holder by Christofle, a 15ml vial of Trudon perfume or a Dr. Vranjes candle<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Aspinal of London heart keyring is just \u00a345 to buy, but comes with a \u00a350 voucher off your next purchase from the brand<\/p>\n
Dubbed the Luxury ‘Gilty’ Pleasures crackers, the set is described on the London department store’s website as ‘the main event’.<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
It reads: ‘Opening gifts on Christmas morning may be the traditional highlight of the day, but this year, Harrods’ luxury Christmas crackers are determined to be the main event.<\/p>\n
‘Comprised of six unique gifts, this collection is the ultimate “Gilty” Pleasure, bestowing two lavish card holders, an eau de parfum and vouchers galore on a lucky festive winner!’<\/p>\n
But despite the high price point only one of the gifts costs more than the \u00a3125-per-cracker price if you were buy on its own, and only just, as the Christofle card holder costs \u00a3130.<\/p>\n
The Aspinal of London heart keyring is just \u00a345 to buy, while you can grab a Gingerlily eye mask for as little as \u00a342.<\/p>\n
Despite this, the cracker closes the gap by gifting each recipient a \u00a350 voucher to spend on the designer brands.\u00a0<\/p>\n
However the total value of the contents of the crackers stands at \u00a3642 – more than \u00a3100 less that the \u00a3750 price point.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The store does also have cheaper crackers at \u00a3109, including a culinary edition with jokes, hats and a kitchen utensil for each lucky guest.<\/p>\n
The store released a similar \u00a3750 set last year, containing Cowshed bath oil, an ST Dupont ballpoint pen, Christofle ornaments, or D’Orsay perfume.<\/p>\n
Dupoint pens cost anywhere from \u00a3250 to \u00a31,500, so last year’s box came with more of a steal.\u00a0<\/p>\n
