I like your comment, "everything is 100% off when you don't buy it."

[@666dynomax]

Lol nice

[@michaelb.8953]

Many years ago my wife and I walked into a Walmart to grab a few food items and they had a rack of shirts at the door with a big sign that said, CLEARANCE 25% off!! She then detoured towards that rack of shirts and started browsing through them. I said, "what are you doing?" Her response was, "I'm looking at the shirts they are 25% off" I said, "do you need a shirt?" Her response was, "no, but they are 25% off" I said, "well if you don't buy one then that's 100% off." When female shopper emotions take over it just kind of short circuits the brain from all logic, actually one could say that about many men also. I think we all have a tendency to buy things we don't need, but it fits an emotional need at the time. These marketers have it all figured out.

[@lmnop01]

@@michaelb.8953 exactly! It’s a fallacy I try to be hyper aware of. I mean, if those shirts weren’t on sale would you have missed them or thought about them? If the answer’s no then you never really wanted them to begin with. An item’s value has to do with me and how I feel toward it rather than the value I’m “gaining” buy purchasing it for less than its objective (separate from me) value (aka a sale).

[@alyssabird720]

Quote of the day, very profound, "everything's a 100% off when you don't buy it." Even Dave was impressed!

[@trent797]

I don't really understand this mindset of buying things "on sale" if you don't need them. If I see a TV that is 50% off, I don't even think of buying it because my current TV is fine. I guess some people are just wired differently.

[@speeddemon0712]

I got a buddy in debt that always buys things on sale because "it was such a good deal, I couldn't pass it up". Well it might have been a good deal, but you got yourself into $12k in cc debt because you didn't need it and didn't pass it up.

A “good deal” is one in which you can (and do) resell it for a profit. Or solves a real problem that exists in your life better or more cheaply than other solutions. Getting a root canal gor $400 less from dentist across town is a good deal. Buying a slightly larger second tv “on sale” is not. The caller is delusional

[@oneeyedman99]

I too have a tendency to spring for something when I see a good deal, but the supply chain mess has fixed that problem. It's been months since I've had to tell myself "that's a great price, but is it something really useful?"
