Don’t point that credit card at me…
Even gun purchases have a mandatory waiting period. It’s a period of time to check the record of the person purchasing the gun, in order to keep criminals and the like from purchasing firearms. Guns can be dangerous…and so can people who don’t think before the buy.
How about imposing a mandatory waiting period on all purchases? With this approach, you have time to think about what you are about to do, and in some cases, the commitment you are about to make. Think about it. Have you ever made a purchase, and after a few days wondered why you ever purchased the item in the first place? Well, with the waiting period approach, if you wait 2 days, you may end up coming to your senses and averting the purchase.
If the item is something that might be gone if you don’t make the purchase right now, try layaway. In most cases, you can get your money back without seeing the layaway through.
Just WAIT…
