shopping

We happened to be in the mall yesterday and my friend went to get 2 pairs of slacks. Me and two more other girls decided to go to the lady’s department. We had just 15 minutes.

When we got back to the place where we’ve decided to meet we found that that guy bought 2 pairs of slacks as he was planning. And 2 girls out of 3 also bought something, they didn’t plan to buy! So, the math is pretty simple: no recognized need + 15 minutes = spending money. :))

As usually, although I was not really planning to get something, I got myself one really nice item. I guess shopping for girls is more than just getting what is needed, it’s more of an emotional thing: want it – get it. I’m pretty much sure that a lot of things that girls buy are not being worn quite often.

There is a concept of calculating price of the cloths. You just divide the price of the item by times you wear it. I’m pretty much sure that the average price of girls’ stuff calculated this way is higher, even if you adjust for difference in the initial value of cloths for guys and girls
