I did hours of research before I headed to the stores to buy my first real #mattress ever

I planned $150-350 for a simple foam mattress, maybe with springs or coils but light enough for me to move easily #shopping #luxuries #grownups

After 2.5 hrs, the saleman talking to me most of that time, I signed on a $1500 mattress with a "free" adjustable base 😳😳 #money #NoBargain

It has zones of support so I am hoping I'll adjust to the lump in the lumbar region!

*sigh* Oh well, I have 1/2 tomorrow, all Fri, all Mon & 2 hours off on Tues so there's Time For Adventures.

Writing. Also writing. Looots of writing.

In an ideal world, the public will become sick of personal data theft, and companies will tire of profit losses due to cyber crime. A pipe dream I know… but it might inspire people to use the high street again.

Sociologist Dr Howard Jones said there was reason to believe that the affluent society was a bad thing. He added that as people become more affluent society’s standards and behaviour will decline.

‘Buy less!’: why Sewing Bee’s Patrick Grant wants us to stop #shopping

Grant is very excited about this idea. His book’s subtitle is much better clue to his book: Stop Buying So Much Rubbish: How Having Fewer, Better Things Can Make Us Happier

Less is a sort of anti-shopping guide. Plea to think carefully before we part with our cash

Surprising given that #Grant has himself for 20 years been a #retailer, designer & #clothing manufacturer
