The overly expensive trend has gone too far.

It's unclear whether Tiffany & Co. is trolling or fishing for press, but they're definitely succeeding with the latter.

The luxury company unleashed a line of needlessly expensive everyday objects, appropriately named Everyday Objects. While ridiculously expensive pants and needlessly flashy objects have become somewhat of a mocking trend on the internet recently, Tiffany & Co. has pushed the envelope with this one.

The line is described on the company's website as a collection that "transforms utilitarian items into handcrafted works of art." It features a $1,500 Sterling silver coffee can, a $9,000 ball of yarn, and $350 straw.

But it doesn't end there — the company has released dozens of totally normal products that nobody needs at totally exorbitant prices. There's a $375 ice cream scoop, a $300 silver yo-yo, and even a $600 Band-Aid box, which will definitely make the Band-Aids heal your wounds faster.

Of course, they slapped these normal objects with Sterling silver, putting "the signature Tiffany Blue® hue of this design’s enamel accent" on some.

The sad part: Rich people will actually shell out money for this stuff.
