On Friday i went to a bagel place in Oakmont, I won't name names. Well i ordered a bagel and some soup, and i also ordered a bagel for carli. They made them for us and brought it down to register for us. They rang it up and they gave me the total.
When they told me how much it was going to be, i was a little surprised. It was a lot of money for such a little amount of food. It was absolutely outrageous that for 2 bagels, chips, and some soup it cost me just as much as i have paid for a dinner in a decent restaurant. Was the food i was paying for worth the money that i was charged?
When you need something bad enough, what would you be willing to pay for it? Are you willing to pay any amount for something you may need or want?
Be careful when deciding how much something is worth to you, don't buy in to something that cost a lot because you think it will be worth it.
After all, i paid 22.75 for a 2 bagels and some chips, not to forget the soup, and was that worth it? Not when i was hungry again 2 hours later.

you know - I am thinking of the times we ALL pay for our choices - the times when we aren't even AWARE that we're gona have to pay DEARLY - the times when instead of handing CASH for the stinkin bagels - we hand credit
ReplyDeleteand when the bill comes - we are forced to pay
and what we actually bought was nothing more than glorified garbage
that made us sick
and maybe even infected others...
