Don’t you hate dilemmas and making tough decisions?
The other day, I went to my favourite clothing store. My wardrobe was already full, but I don’t care. I saw a superhero shirt. Great news! It has been marked down from $19.99 to $13.99. Then I see another shirt. The fabric is smoother and feels more durable. Definitely higher quality and more stylish than the superhero shirt. It has been marked down from $40.99 to $25.99. But then I see a third shirt. Doesn’t look as good as the first two, and the fabric feels rough, but it comes with a coupon worth $5 on my next purchase. Which one do I get?
I want to show you a spectacular technique that allows you to both make tough decisions and maximize your savings. Would you like to know how?
It’s deathly simple. All you need is basic math and logic.
If we buy the superhero shirt, how much would we save? $6, right? And how is the quality of the shirt? Pretty good. Durable and comfy.
How about the second shirt? We save $15. And the quality? Better than the first one. And we look better in it than the first.
Buying the third shirt only saves us $5, because of the coupon. Plus the fabric kind of sucks.
Would you not agree we should purchase the second shirt? It’s better quality, makes you look and feel better, and saves you more money.
It’s just that deathly simple, except…
One thing still bothers me. If I buy the second shirt, I save $15. But if I don’t buy the shirt, I save $25.99. So, should I buy it?
