Apple has unveiled three new iPhones.

The devices are updates to last year's iPhone X.

One of the phones, the luxury iPhone XS Max, has the largest screen any of the iPhones has ever had.

The 6.5-inch device retails at $1,090.

The cost of the phone got Garry and Fionnuala thinking about ridiculously expensive things...

Nuts

We're all trying to lead healthier lives but eating clean is costing us a fortune.

One of our favourite nutritious snacks, nuts, are notoriously pricey.

You almost need to take out a loan to buy a decent bags of Brazil nuts, hazelnuts, or macadamia nuts...never mind extravagant pine nuts.

Sneakers

Sneakers are the king of the causal shoe.

However, it's hard to get a pair for less than 100 quid these days.

Adidas Originals, Nike Air Max and New Balance are all over €100...even Vans and Converse are getting dangerously close to the €100 mark.

Exercise classes

Back to the health kick - why are classes such as yoga, Pilates and boxercise so expensive?!

We understand the instructors have to make a living but anything over a tenner per class is daylight robbery in our eyes.
