Things you should never pay full price for

by Jummy

We all have things we buy that don’t go on sale regularly enough to warrant waiting before buying: your favourite cologne, a good piece of jewelry, face cream that you can’t pick up at the local drugstore, a book on the bestseller list. Interestingly, these tend to be the more expensive things. However, there are some things that you should never buy at full price. Why? Because on any given week at least one store will have it (them) on sale! And when you find something on sale, you stock up and make sure that you never run out! Without further ado, here are some basic items that fall into this category:

  • toilet paper
  • kleenex
  • non-speciality shampoo and conditioner
  • toothpaste
  • deodorant

Is there anything you refuse to pay full price for?

    With sites like lala, secondspin, and amazon, there is absolutely no reason to pay full price for CDs.

    I wait to purchase dvd’s previously viewed. You can get them pretty cheap at blockbuster and such.
