General achievements

General achievements are rewarded for completing random objectives not associated with questing, exploring, PvPing, or going dungeon crawling, and covers such whimsical achievements as obtaining a companion or getting a hair cut.

Also covered is the purchasing of some rather expensive items like Haris Pilton's "Gigantique" Bag, the  rings from Dalaran that have a Teleport: Dalaran spell, and the  mounts.
