Some people refuse to buy things unless they are on sale. Are you like this? Or do you just think it's an added bonus for something to be on sale?

if i go to the mall because they are "on sale", it has to be that i really need to buy something not because they are "on sale". i don't usually go there because they are "on sale" just to avail of low prices of things. i refrain from shopping when it is a sale day because of the heavy crowd turnout and also because i usually end up buying things which i really don't need. so, it is better not to go and waste money.

I don't really buy items on sale.I buy vintage and secondhand items.these don't cost too much.they have dirt-cheap prices,even if they aren't on sale.also,I like that I am the only one with that item.it makes me feel unique and I stand out from the crowd.

I prefer to buy things on sale or better prices. For example, I can go in one store and find tank tops for $15, and go in another store and find the exact same item for 2 for $15. Makes more sense to get two for $15, don't you think? I will not pay outlandish prices for items. If I see a dress I like and the price is REASONABLE, I will buy it if it is not on sale. These days, however, there are sales everywhere and that's the only way we are buying stuff. We just can't afford to pay full price for anything. Another example, I will NOT pay more than $4 for a box of cereal and now almost all regular sized boxes are priced over $4 here. So when they are on for $2.99 you can be I stock up.

word "sale" is a joke. the real price of something is 10$ in normal days shops sell it at 50$ and then if its not sold they will sell it at 30$ to 40$ just by taging it as a sale item and the mindless masses buy it as if it is free. i never buy anything that is on sale because i know "the secret of shopping".

No, I buy things that I think good or suite me well. I don't really care it's in sale or not. Once I see it's good I will buy it,,hahaha^^,, some people say I'm not too wise in spending money because once I say I'll buy it then I buy it. for me ,satisfaction is number one! But I must admit that sale always attract my attention. I look the things in sale and there's a nice one, I'll buy it. It's just like a bonus if I find something nice on sale.
