Free Stuff
Quote of the Day: I got so many free gifts!
Almost every girl who walks into a departmental store's cosmetics section will inevitably fall into the trap of buying stuff just cos they come with free gifts. Be they free bags, lipstick, make up kits...whatever. That most of these items will disappear into a bottom drawer to be forgotten is besides the point. Of paramount importance is that it's free! Often, this extends to bragging rights.
Yup yup, i can see all the nodding heads from guys and the vociferous denials from the girls.
Well, i reckon it isn't quite that bad. What's the whole point of shopping anyway? To get stuff you need or feel good? You want stuff you need, you go to the supermarket; you want therapy/happiness, you go to Isetan/Macy's/Myers!
That it makes you happy is great! I mean it's prolly better than going for a good meal that disappears and ends up as crap right? A free make up kit will always be there, except maybe all cracked up and unuseable (so you have an excuse to buy another and get more free gifts with it! Yes!)
Guys, we shouldn't complain quite so much, we do this kinda stuff in different ways. Remember that 3 zillion gig HDD you bought just so you can keep your 20 gigs of mp3s? Or how about that 5 million part tool set when all you needed was an adjustable wrench?
So why do we do these kinds of things? Well, quite simply, it gives us that warm fuzzy feeling. Everyone, shop at will!
PLEASE NOTE: I will not be responsible for overspending or eventual bankruptcy. However, i will be glad to recieve your messages of euphoria after having bought $500 of lipsticks in order to get a free canvas bag worth $10 in Chinatown.
