Do you always look at the price of things?
 
As title really, do you always look at the price of things before buying them/when considering buying them? :scratch:

I am not sure I have ever bought ANYTHING without wanting to know the price first ...

I think even if I won the lottery I'd still look at the price of stuff ... its kinda ingrained now ...

Just wondered if anyone out there never looks, or at least sometimes don't look?

I wanted to buy Harrison billet brakes. Even when I found out the price I still wanted to buy them.

Pete said no:(

Hmm, if it's an impulse buy, then yeah, I'll look at how much it costs & then decide if it's worth it.

If it's something small that I need, then cost doesn't usually matter. For example, loctite threadlock that I bought a couple of days ago, no idea how much it was, didn't look/listen to the cashier.

Tesco shopping is generally the same too, I buy what we need, and however much it costs, is what I pay.

My other half though, is a nightmare. She'll happily spend 45 mins trying to work out the cost per litre of 5 different brands of washing up liquid, then factor in if there's any multi-buy savings etc etc. Drives me insane that she stands still looking at the cost so long. Just buy the stuff already!!

45 minutes is quite bad I would agree :p However I can understand how she does it, I take ages choosing stuff sometimes, even if it's what chocolate bar to get at the counter.....usually always give up and go for the usual Doubledecker though :mrgreen:
