"Significant Purchase" is the best match.

- Caveat emptor ("buyer beware") is a legal/consumer warning, not a description of spending pain.
- Opportunity cost is the value of the next-best alternative you give up when you spend money — related but not the same as the psychological pain of parting with cash.
- A "significant purchase" (or "significant expenditure") describes an amount large enough—e.g., ~$300—to cause noticeable discomfort when spent.
