More “If It Looks Expensive, Then You Paid Too Much”

I once bought a book that had a bookmark perforated on the inside cover that you could punch out and use to mark your place. Another book came with a figurine. Yet another had colored journal pages on the inside that you could rip out neatly to write down your thoughts.

That means I paid too much for the book.

Here are some more:

You ever order room service and it comes with cute to-die-for mini jellies, ketchups, mayos, and mustards? Then you paid too much.

You ever buy a cookbook, and it comes with a netted bag of serving spoons or utensils? Then you paid too much.

You ever buy a netted bag of serving spoons or utensils, and it comes with a cookbook? Then you paid too much.

You ever buy a razor and it comes with shaving cream?

You get the idea. I could go on forever. Last one:

You ever go to the Apple store and you buy anything and it comes in a heavy cardboard box with a charger?

We’re all paying too much.
