At one job I spent a minor fortune on a frame and museum glass (antiglare) for a poster of Buffy the Vampire Slayer... I enjoyed the show and no one else did so I decided to put up the poster, but I wanted it to look professional. Hence the couple hundred bucks in framing a $2 poster. Though I did chose a very tasteful one ...

desertgrandma - Congrats on the AC's! I'm sure you'll have fun reading all of them...

I'll go maybe once a month (more or less). I'll probably put the prints in like 5 dollar frames. I have this gorgeous etching that needs reframing- I bought it for five bucks because it has a big chunk of water damage, but it is mostly on the matte. I'll probably just go to Michaels though, I don't notice frames that much.
