Y'aint gonna eat Kansas City filet mignon for $1.99 pound.
Meaning what's CHEAPER 2 Rolls batteries or SIX US batteries?
In my thoroughly embarrassing case -- one Michelin or THREE Douglas rags?
Or, how much money and time is a warranty going to do to your wallet?
Or NINE PAIR of Wal-Mart pants or one pair of Dickies pants? Eight additional trips to Wal-Mart isn't going to cost $20? Keep dreaming. My $20 Dickies pants are serving as work pants and around the house plodders. They were purchased in 2002.
Rejects and replacements COST EXTRA MONEY. I cannot tell you the number of times I heard. "We have problems. It's going to cost us our dream vacation"
So the low priced spread may very well be a budget buster. Nine times out of ten the real-bargain in the bunch will sit at a boarding house table and eat four times his worth.
If I had purchased ZOT-ZINGER 2 volt cells at half price of the Rolls and they lasted a third as long (22 years) did I get screwed? After all they were thousands cheaper? And then I had to kiss their butt for hundreds of additional maintenance hours do I write those hours off as a charitable donation?
Remind me to avoid going shopping with you thank you very much
