An added perk of getting nominated for an Academy Award is the swag bag, and this year's offers just about everything a Hollywood star could ask for — and then some.
The more than 50 items in the "Everyone Wins" gift bag are worth about $140,000. The most unique item is a plot of land in Scotland, along with a title of Lord or Lady of Glencoe. While visiting their real estate, the nominee can also collect on another gift: a three-night stay at Scotland's Turin Castle. They will be welcomed by a bagpiper, and go on to enjoy a private gin tasting and butler service.
