I can be extremely tight with my monies even willing to hold a McDonald’s coffee for several days so my investment is only a .25 a day. Yet there are certain products and services I gladly will pay more for. It is unwise for me to report this on my blog for this gives the individual who reads this blog and meets me an advantageous in taking away that hard earned cash. There is a caveat at the end though that will help make sure that this doesn’t occur and I pay more for what I truly want to.
(1) FRIENDLY & COURTEOUS- A place that is warm and friendly will make my monies slip out of the wallet quicker.
(2) SERVICE COUNTS- Not having dealing with “we appreciate your call” and then keeping you on the phone for twenty minutes is worth that extra expense.
(3) EXCELLENT QUALITY- If the product or service cost double but last me three times as long then it’s a bargain unforeseen by many.
(4) MY CAUSES- Knowing that the monies spent will go to individuals who believe in the same causes and values as me will help me kick in an extra dollar or 2.
(5) REAL – After years of training in the shopping malls you can tell when an individual is authentic in what they’re trying to sell you and believe it will help or just trying to grab an extra dollar. Seller beware I’ve been around this block many a times before.
