    Bullshit. If I wasn’t tired, broke, and hungry I’d spend way more than I do on gratifying myself. I spend purely on necessity, never my personal happiness because I can’t FUCKING AFFORD TO!

      The convenience thing hits home for me in a big way tho. There are a TON of purchases I make a certain way just because a place has it at a time I’m actually able to get it or is close enough that I have the time to go there and pick it up cause I work so damn much or they are just willing to drop it off when I’m not home… Cuz I’m at work.

        True. But if you had time, I’d bet you’d spend more for what you want rather than what you need.

          Maybe, but that probably doesn’t translate to spending more in total, or at least you’d get better value per dollar. The less value you get per dollar, the better for the owning class.
