Now it is my turn to agree with you whole-heartedly!<br /><br />Thanks for your insights.Ms. Fishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12914177141155640172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-682823262676397586.post-74980133985822103422011-03-13T16:07:40.663-06:002011-03-13T16:07:40.663-06:00i can tell the difference between the shoes. hone...i can tell the difference between the shoes. honestly ~ i have a pair of $40 flip flops that i wear *everyday* (yes, even in the winter time; and have worn them for about 3 years) and i have a pair of $5 flip flops that i have worn, i don't know, twice in the 6 years that i have had them. the $40 ones have an arch support and have not worn out since i have worn them *everyday* for the last three years.<br /><br />yes, i shop at IKEA and i love it. but yes, my favorite down vest cost me $150. it has a hood, and i wear it 5 months out of the year, nearly everyday.<br /><br />so when you think, hmmm: i could have a cheap-a** vest or flip flops that only cost a few bucks, but i've only worn them a handful of times, or i could have something expensive that i really enjoy and use or wear everyday, you need to look at the price-per-day, as i like to put it (it's like buying something in the grocery store based on price-per-pound or price-per-ounce... those little numbers below the price that most people do not even look at... ) and when you look at it that way, the more expensive thing *actually ends up saving you money and being cheaper in the end because you wore/used it more*<br /><br />so in a nutshell, and because i am running out of space to respond... i agree whole-heartedly.Missy B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/15050431314525700444noreply@blogger.com
