Dubai NYE

Whatever you spent celebrating New Year's Eve, you almost certainly didn't spend what you would have if you were in . . Dubai in the United Arab Emirates.

There were spectacular fireworks and extravagant parties for those with deep pockets. The adult party ticket could be roughly $700US (but kids get into theirs free with an adult).  

Or, for those who prefer a low-key celebration, you could take some friends to Five Guys: "For burgers near the action, fast food chain Five Guys charged $408 per person." 

But everyone could have unlimited burgers, fries and drinks.
