I bought weed, does that count? It's hard to turn down 30% off weed.
You go, dawg. Good for you!
I didn't buy anything 😁 fuck consumerism
I would've bought something if something had caught my eye, but I just don't need anything...
It starts earlier and shit costs more.
But the media told me Kamala lost the election because the economy is bad. Hmmm. Maybe that wasn’t really the reason.
For perspective, Musk's net worth increased by $70B since the election.
Can I have 0.01% please, Mr. Musk?
You won't even notice it's missing 🥺
"Black Friday" is like two years long now though?
More people shop online, news at 10.
Black Friday and Cyber Monday are literally the only days of the year that I might be able to afford to shop for things I want. I saved over $600 this year.
When you unilaterally raise prices on everything, the dollar amount spent is going to go up. This is a testament to how much we are getting fucked. Not proof that working families aren’t suffering.
Don’t let it fool you that people aren’t suffering. A lot of people are socially compelled into buying gifts for Xmas and whatnot, even when they can barely afford it. Also, price of just about everything went up so naturally the amount we spend does too.
Why are people able to be socially compelled? Alas.
