I have said before that I spend entirely too much money on the vending machine at work – mostly on Twix candy bars. Last time I was at my local membership price club warehouse, I saw a box of Twix. There were thirty-eight candy bars for eighteen dollars. Fifty cents per bar. That’s half as much as the machine bars. I’ve saved nine dollars! I should buy more candy!
If you get a break at work, you could spend it standing by the vending machine and dispense your wares! If you sold them at 75 cents each, you’d undercut your competitor and still make a profit!
Ah, humanity, thy skills at rationalizing are not to be surpassed! Nicely done, bargain shopper friend of ours. Enjoy every morsel, at home or at work.
Great your will power is! Two seconds those bars would last on my counter. Eat or eat not. Eat. With me there is no try.
