[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Xfor example, if you saw next year's valentines at 90% off ($.29), would you buy them for your kids to give out next year? Would you buy 3 bags of chocolate for fifty cents each knowing you'll donate them to you kid's class party in 3 months (well before the expiration date?), orig price 5.00?[/quote] I wouldn't go for it in either of these situations, here's why: Valentines are cheap, and they're cheaper to do home-made. Buying things a year in advance for kids is risky business - this year they love Paw Patrol but next year they won't want the same characters on their valentines. Finally, saving 90% on an item that costs a few dollars is not worth having junky paper valentines taking up space in my house for a whole year. Same logic for the chocolate. It's inespensive now, it will still be inexpensive in 3 months, and meanwhile you don't have chocolate taking up space that entire time.[/quote]
