I know more than one person who has an alternate email address for things such as this that they don't check as often as their main address. And there are people like me who will skim their messages, save ads that are potentially interesting, and then read them when they have time. If you consider this a sign of the impending decline of society, go with that.
Well, let's just say the tone of your posts is "annoyed." Perhaps you did not mean them to sound that way. But when someone posts a thread on a topic that has been discussed here before without complaint, and says basically "why did you post this here," one does tend to sound annoyed that the post even exists.
Does "budget" always mean "spend the minimum amount of money?" I thought it meant "plan your spending." Because I notice you aren't posting this same message when people mention other sales on other items that cost money. Why aren't you up in arms about posts regarding the Great Wolf Lodge, Keurig machines, Wii games, etc.? Why is it only
this thread that apparently encourages others to surrender their impulse control? And why would you assume that everyone who buys a bag is failing at "impulse control?" Is it really not possible that people plan for these things and wait for a sale?
Also, if someone wants a Coach bag, and wants to spend less money... hmm... I wonder if a factory outlet sale would be a good way to accomplish that? What do you think?
Okay. The information was unnecessary for YOU and therefore you found it unnecessary to be here. Thanks for clarifying.
