Impulsive Shopping

"Should I?"
"Do I really need them?"
"They look good!"
"Will they be comfortable?"
"They're only $40 bucks!"
"I'll just try them on!"

SOLD! During my 3 short hours of freedom this morning, I went to Marshall's to purchase a button-down shirt and pants for work. I got the shirt and pants ... both under $15. Then I made the mistake of strolling in the shoe department. What did I find?? Black Steve Madden shoes for only $39.99. First thought ... where's the mis-stitch? You know somethings wrong with them ... or they wouldn't be at Marshalls. Immediately after the inspection, I debated the purchase for a solid 30 minutes. It was all over as soon as I put them on. They were comfortable, black (multi-use) and fashionable ... a perfect fit! But did I really need them??? Of course not ... but don't I look good!!!
