I’ve been burned by financing plans before, especially when it comes to furniture. The way you explained the hidden costs was so eye-opening. I’ll definitely reconsider financing options the next time I’m shopping.
The tips on budgeting before making a big purchase are super helpful. I've often made the mistake of going into stores without a clear budget and ended up spending way more than I intended. This advice will save me!
That story about your first furniture purchase was such a relatable moment... I’ve been there with low-quality furniture and definitely learned the hard way, but your tips on avoiding buyer’s remorse are super helpful for next time, thank you!
Restocking fees are the worst! I had no idea how common they were until recently. Definitely a good reminder to always check return policies, especially with electronics or furniture.
You can usually tell if a review is genuine by the context of the information in the review. Awesome times good reviews have detail . There’s no substitute for a referral, which is a few degrees of separation from someone you know . But you could also check online websites , the retailers website and the Better Business Bureau. It also helps to be a good observer when you visit a location to buy something. How are you treated when you walk in how is the staff engaging others around and others in the community have good things to say. Ask around, have you ever shopped there before etc. etc.
Cash is the way to go so you can abound paying all that interest. But not everyone can do that so I recommend paying a litter extra each month to pay your loan off faster. Or of interest rates drop refinance the loan with the lower rate.
Focus on what’s important. Getting the product right then and there may be important and that’s ok. Just understand, a retailers deal is just their way of creating urgency. It does not mean you have to take advantage of it or that’s it’s actually a deal.

Wow jeje negotiating well is an art, you have to have personality, conviction, charisma and security xD
Thanks for your comment!
You mentioned researching stores before buying-what do you find is the quickest way to get accurate reviews?

The negotiation part was useful, but I wish there were tips for situations where it’s not possible.
Thanks for your comment!
When would negotiations not be possible? Can you share an example?
I'm curious about if you think protection plans are worth it for tech, or is it just a money grab?
@@clarasands8549 not worth it for auto but furniture is a good value when it comes to protection.
Is financing ever really worth it, or is cash always the better option for larger purchases?

How do you avoid getting caught up in impulsive decisions when there’s a "limited-time offer" sign? I feel like I'm always a sucker for those 😂😂
