Getting more bang for our buck...

Research! Education! Ask questions and get answers!! Whether we're buying something to wear, something to eat, some furniture, a vehicle, wrinkle creams or whatever. We owe it to ourselves and to our pocketbooks to be informed.

I really feel that if we all did our homework before we bought anything, the quality of everything that is available today would be affected. By getting information before we buy we insure that we get the best buy for our money. If we all do this, then only the best buy would stand the test and inferior products would slowly fade away.

Old sayings like "you get what you pay for" aren't always valid. The highest price doesn't guarantee that you will have the best product for your money. Sometimes the better buy is the middle priced item. There have been times when the cheapest product we have found to be the best buy and where we got the most bang for our buck.

No matter what you are buying, know what you're getting and insist on getting the best price. You work hard for your money!!
