It’s good to have goals in life.

And to dream big.
  
So when we flipped through the Neiman Marcus Christmas Book earlier this season and discovered such unattainable holiday treasures like the $25,000 cupcake car and the ICON A5 sports aircraft for $250,000, we dreamt about what it would be like to get that as a gift; then we put down the catalog and got back to work while eating our 65-cent ramen noodle lunch.
 
Now, Nordstrom has stepped up to the holiday extravagant gift competition even more with their exclusive fashion and travel experiences; one of a kind holiday gifts you won’t find elsewhere, and you won’t find them if you don’t get moving; these packages come in very small quantities.
 
The gifts available include four experiences that will certainly get you some points:
 
A wedding gown of your dreams
You’ll travel to New York City on two occasions to meet with designer Jason Wu while his design team gets to work to create a one-of-a-kind wedding dress for you. Package also includes consultation on the design of your gown, final fitting and a trip to the Manolo Blahnik and Josie Natori showrooms to select the shoes and underpinnings to match. Then you’ll get you pamper your bridal party on wedding day to beauty applications at Nordstrom, all for a mere $22,230. (1 available)
 
Couture from Isabel Toledo
Pick a unique couture design from a special Isabel Toledo collection out of exclusive Swiss lace and fabric, plus receive a signed sketch of your original look created by Ruben Toledo. Then you’ll tour the Toledos’ studio and have lunch with them at their favorite Manhattan restaurant, Indochine. $21,550 (2 available)
 
Super Bowl heaven
Super Bowl XLIV has never looked more appealing; badass lower level seats, access to some stellar parties in Miami before and after the game (including access to the VIP Super Bowl party with all the athletes and celebs), and more are included in this deal. You’ll also be styled by Nordstrom in Miami before heading to all these festivities. $18,900 (1 available)
 
Learn from the experts at Stiletto Spy School
Lean all the essential skills in life; poker, martini mixology and self defense -- all in Las Vegas. Train with experts while basking in the Las Vegas desert for the weekend, then perfect your spy style with the help of Spy School pros, who will teach you how to work the catwalk with a runway walking class and photo shoot. $10,000 (6 available)
 
These gifts may sound like a dream, but apparently they’re a hot commodity. Two packages have already sold out (offered early to Nordstrom Fashion Rewards customers); Twelve custom VIP Michael Buble concert experiences at $6,150 per package sold out and three VIP Grammy Awards experiences at $14,710 per package were sold.
 
After all, ‘tis the season for giving. Isn’t that what credit cards are for?
