Most of the women are suckers for sales and discounts. They need retail therapy.
Once, I passed by the Isetan in Orchard during the GSS and the place was flooded with hordes of women, who were scrounging through the piles of shoes, dresses, handbags and underwear. Frankly, it was quite a scary sight, and I felt sorry for the retail employees.
walan eh! ... dun tel me wat dey did b4 dey buy cucumbers! ...BrinjaLs are the most iLL-treated ones !.Knn how many times have i seen maids pressing & fingering them for their
correct size & hardness prior to buy one for use..

thorny prickLy feeLings from them.

It's the same thing when big businesses use the following marketing gimmicks:
A. Restaurants offering frequent diner's discount. The more you dine there, the bigger the discount. That's great until the diners eventually get sick from eating too much restaurant food.
B. Restaurants offering a 30% discount when using a particular type of credit card to pay. Most people won't even dine at those restaurants until they saw the special promo offer when they happen to carry that particular card.
C. Shops offering Buy 1 Get 1 Free. Most people didn't even plan to buy that item in the first place until they saw the offer.
D. Credit card issuers offering reward points. The more you use their cards to pay, the more points you'll earn that can be redeemed for free airline ticket, hotel accommodation, shopping vouchers, or cash back. Most people get into this trap of trying to get freebies until they can't make their credit card payments.
E. Hotels offering frequent guest program. The more nights you stay at their hotels, the higher your chances that your next night stay will be free. People literally will have to spend tens of thousands of dollars a year at the hotel just to get a free night stay. Otherwise, the points will eventually expire.
F. Airlines' frequent flier program. The more you fly with the same airline alliance network, the better your chances of getting a free airline ticket or an upgrade. Unless someone is really a frequent flier on business trips, it's not worth it. It literally takes tens of thousands of miles to get a free economy class return ticket to another continent. It will take hundreds of thousands of miles to get a free business class or first class return ticket. If they don't redeem their miles by expiration date, they'll lose their miles.

Bro, I think posting your problem here is not going to solve the issue you have with your wife.
The solution is to educate her and share with her how in reality "the more you buy, the more you save" don't work.
Point out to her some issues such as expiry dates, cheaper discount in future or elsewhere, some of the products you simply don't use anymore as the time passes by e.g. baby napkins and baby milk or the complimentary good no longer functioning etc etc.
BTW, if your freezer door is almost jammed from closing, that means you are saving on energy bill as a full fridge consume less energy to maintain the same temperature than an empty one.
Never see funeral parlour using this as a gimmick. Buy one coffin get another one free.
Bro sotong, it's not soLeLy about this ' buy n save' issue my wife, it's a broader based probLem with peopLe with that Like-minded mentaLity of it.
