Today I went to the store as I needed to buy a mouse for the laptop. I pre-decided that I would get a basic corded mouse as I didn’t really wan to deal with things such as replacing batteries. When I arrived I saw a cheap Logitech one for about $12 which should be fine. But then I saw a wireless one on sale for about $17 and that actually made me wonder if I should go for that. Funny enough, a factor for that thought was because I tend to want to take advantage of better deals and the corded mouse wasn’t on sale.
I would imagine many people do that as well where a sale price of an item entices them to get that item instead even though it is more than what they wanted to spend. Ultimately though I did just end up getting the corded mouse as the main factor was that I wasn’t going to be using it all the time and can imagine the batteries on the wireless mouse naturally wearing out and costing more money.
So much we have to do to re-convince ourselves to just get what we need at times huh?
