Bargain

When something is a bargain,
You really want to buy it;
Though it’s what you do not need,
Of course you will deny it.

But it’s on sale, reduced by half –
Come see it for yourself!
It’s true, but if it were full price,
You’d leave it on the shelf.

A bargain really isn’t one
If you don’t really need it.
Some people have that discount bug
And just can’t wait to feed it.

So next time something is on sale,
No matter if it’s nice,
Think before you purchase –
Would you buy it at full price?

If you say no, then think again;
Don’t give in to that urge,
And wait ‘til you find what you love,
Then pay full price and splurge!
