I will sell it to you for the reduced price of 99,999.95 but only if you act within the next ten minutes. You will not find a better price anywhere and this is NOT sold in stores. I'm so sure you will like this item that if you do not, simply return it at your expense along with a postage paid self addressed envelope and I will give you 3 percent of your money back. Act quickly, you don't want to be the last one on your block without one.

Why do people have to buy buy buy to be happy. Is it brainwashing from TV commercials. Never before has there been so many Americans so deeply in debt. What happened to "living within your means" aka, spending a little less than you earn.

Rez, you made it before the cut off, although I'll be making the same offer every half hour until I make my millions. For being my first customer, I'll throw in a 14 piece Ginsu steak knife set with a lifetime sharpness guarantee.

Al B... Yes I do take credit cards, but don't tell me the number, just send me the whole card. Even if you charge it, you should get my thingamabob now since it is on sale... even though you'll actually be paying about 2million by the time you pay off the card.
So sad to me that people think that things can bring happiness... they forget the important "things" in life. Purchase happiness lasts about an hour, for me at least, then I gotta go through the drudgery of reading the owners manual.

Susan, deal.... except I'm that nice nigerian lady and I wasn't really going to send you millions, I just wanted your email addy so I could sell it myself.

Thank You so much

So sorry for that freak hunting accident that happened to your uncles cousins brother while on safari here in Mozambique, he shouldn't have been rolling in dead zebra and that lion might have left him alone. Well, the billions he made selling rhino horn will help you out in your life I hope.

Your thingamabob is already outdated, I have the new version. If you would like to purchase the parts to upgrade yours I can offer them to you at a low low price of 299.95 or just 15 monthly installments of 29.95. Act now before it becomes completely antiquated.

I believe that it has to do with the "American Dream" and instant gratification issues. People are no longer willing to wait and work for what they want. It doesn't help either that many parents neglect to teach their children about the value of hardwork, saving and the satisfaction of earning something. They are often too busy trying to make sure that their kids "have it better than I did" or "trying to be their friend", etc. So few seem willing to consider the consequences of their actions anymore, it's sad.

credit cards! People see things that they perhaps know they can't afford at the moment but think I will put it on the card without realizing that it is not helping their money problems but just postponing them and when they see someone else is happier because they have that product they buy it because they want to be happy also
