Today’s prompt deals with the topic of advertisements.
Announcements ~ usually via appearance entice people
to make purchases.
With age comes wisdom and I’ve learned tis best to
conduct research of certain items prior to purchase.
Don’t be shy ~ ask questions.
There’s no harm ~ remember adage, ‘never judge a book by its
cover’ as products which appear to be great deals often result in
major disappointments.
A frugal gal, I stick to my old favorites.
Whenever there’s need for a brand-new item I ask others
for their opinions and look to Google for pros and cons,
the process of comparison shopping.
TV ~ I cancelled it three months ago due to high price and
lack of quality show selections.
Believe me this decision was made 100 percent tougher when
dealing with the customer service representatives as it appears
they are trained to sell upgrades and frown on downgrades.
As for social media I may view an advertisement; however, I know
it’s wiser to make my own personal decision based on actual need
rather than be coerced especially to people-please another person.
