We Like Pretty Sparkly Things. In Excess.

 Hello?  Joe, Joe Daddy?  Who do I look exactly like?!  Just slap some blonde hair and earrings on my Daddy and here's his picture at 3 years old!  Ha ha ha!  As you can see, we get much use out of these Princess Dresses Mommy bought us.  In fact, if they cost $50 (ahem, cough cough) and we have worn them 3,250 times that is equivalent to 1.5 cents per wear which at the current rate of inflation from the time that Mommy bought the dresses to now the "actual" cost of wear is .75 cents which is 400% cheaper than the cheapest t-shirt we own which we wear an average of 30 times so in a nutshell, Mommy actually SAVED money by buying us these dresses because they are cheaper than free when you think about how much we wear them and how much regular clothing in it's place would have cost.  You can thank her later, Daddy.

 And, Daddy, since we're girls and you can clearly see we are so enamored with shiny, pretty things, Mommy suggests you start buying her nice jewelry now.  In the current economy the bulk vs. wholesale cost of platinum and gold is exponentially lower than it will be in 20 years when we will be asking you to buy it for us, but you can go ahead and buy it for Mommy now, and she can pass it along to us in 20 years at which point you can buy her new stuff to replace the empty slots in her jewelry box.  You will actually save more money by doing this, because if you were to invest the same money in a savings account earning a paltry 1% interest rate compounded in 20 years it will still be less than the value of jewelry you buy her now that she can pass along to us which will be valued at = Priceless.  Because it came from you.  Hurry up, Daddy, you are losing money just reading this!
