Nothing's worse than second place, right? Not if you're an Academy Award nominee. Even if this year's contenders don't win at this year's ceremony, they're getting a pretty good consolation prize: a gift bag valued at more than $125,000.
So what's inside? In addition to luxury skincare products and other extravagant accessories, highlights include free vacations to Tuscany and the Canadian Rockies, a $250 vaporizer, a $250 vibrator, $1,500 in French Mediterranean sea salts, and a "lifestyle makeover package" valued at $14,200.
