The contents of this year's Academy Awards goodie bags have been revealed to be worth more than $125,000.
Highlights include: a $1,500 three-night stay at a resort in Tuscany; a luxury train journey through the Canadian Rockies worth $14,500; French Mediterranean sea salts worth $1,500; a silver necklace bearing the latitude and longitude of the Dolby Theater where the Oscars were held worth $150; a glamping trip valued at $12,500; a $800 cotton candy and dessert voucher; a $250 Haze vaporiser; a $250 Afterglow vibrator; a Wellness 360 gift pack worth $1,200; a full year of Audi A4 car rental worth $20,000 and a Reset Yourself makeover package coming in at over $14,200.
Though there's plenty more on top of all this, the highest-valued item is apparently a $20,000 gift certificate giving you the ability to have Enigma Life founder Olessia Kantor come and meet all the nominees individually and offer insight on "their 2015 horoscope, analyze dreams and teach them mind control techniques.”
Presumably to make sure they can lock down more votes next year?
It's important to note the Academy doesn't endorse the release of the gift bags, and they're being distributed by Distinctive Asset. In 2006 it was actually voted to stop their distribution after an IRS agreement, though it seems a rethink may have happened at some stage.

Truly unbelievable...
Makes it funny when you consider Patricia Arquette received one of those yet complains about gender inequality.
