Yes, limited or collectors' edition/ stickers/captions make me want to buy items more than I would otherwise. It's a clever ploy to lure people like me. I own several (some embarrassing) memorabilia simply because I believed it was my last chance to own something that I'd someday wish for a chance to get rid of. The worst is when they bring out DVDs and CDs and after you've bought them, they bring out collectors' editions or Director's cut edition or some special editions. I own 3 different versions of Shania Twain's "Up!" album. True story.
Totally different note: Would anyone like to buy a few collectors' editions DVDs?
:) I could never figure out your love for Shania's 'Up' album. I thought her previous ones were better. But yes, these are clever gimmicks... you need will power to walk away. Funny strip...
ReplyDeleteYou fall for anything! :p And Shania Twain? Really?! LOL
ReplyDeleteP.S. - Love the strip :)
I fall for the 'last day' ploy. Only to find that the next day comes out with the 'final last day' and more absurd announcements for several days afterwards with the prices plummeting further! Poor shark. I could understand his vexation :)
