My inbox is shrieking with Black Friday this, Cyber Monday that — all the bargains we have to have NOW! Because they’re GOING FAST! In a sale I WON’T WANT TO MISS!
The urgency is terrifying.
Here’s what I’d like to see reduced for the holidays at a new, LOW! LOW! PRICE — for all of us:
- The cable bill
- Property taxes
- Medical fees
- Legal fees
- The phone bill
- Utilities
- Insurance: car, homeowners’, medical, dental, you name it
And I don’t mean some temporary, lull-me-into-thinking-it’s-forever, special short-term deal; I want to see a minimum 50% off. Is that too much to ask?!?
Guess I will have to settle for a new pair of boots, a replacement for my worn-out black cashmere cardigan, and my favorite about-to-be-discontinued lipstick. Sigh.
Are you shopping the sales? Finding some good bargains? Do share!
