Okay, and did those 2000 purchases bring you cumulatively more joy than a single $10,000 purchase?

Almost certainly.

My problem is falling for the “oh, the next model up has x feature for only £x more” ploy.

Before I know it, I’m at like double my initial price point .

This is so intentional by the people setting the prices as well. I know that's obvious to some, but I still think it's worth highlighting.

That would be two thousand $5 purchases.

At two purchases per day, that's about 2 years, 9 months.

At one purchase a day, that's about 5 years 6 months.

At two purchases per week, that's about 19 years 3 months.

At one purchase for week, that's about 38 years, 5 months.

Sandwiches are about $5. I eat a lotta sandwiches.
