Bargain Hunters
You can almost see it in their eyes. There is a twinkle that can be found if you look at the right time, and almost a serene sense of calm that settles over them before they head into a big sale. They are armed with sales flyers, calculators, and may even have brought a few helpers with them. These are the bargain hunters you may have read about, but you may not even know they are there. These folks are serious about saving money, and they won’t settle for anything less. I love bargain hunters, and I might be one myself, though I don’t have the dedication to the cause that some of them have. I love to find a good deal, and I always try to sniff out bargains when I can. Unlike these die hard bargain hunters however, there are times when I want something and I have no problem paying full price for it. I know they would look down their nose at me, but I’m just not as good as it as some I know.
My aunt would be what you would call the queen of the bargain hunters, though many would just call her cheap. Every year for Christmas we all get the same gift from her. She gives us a bag of odds and ends that I know she has gotten on clearance. This is no rhyme or reason for the items in the bag, and we all know its stuff she got a good deal on, or she wouldn’t have bought it at all. You may know bargain hunters like these, and you may know what you are getting for Christmas if you know where they like to shop and you have seen what is on the clearance rack.
Bargain hunters are thrifty for a reason. You might be surprised to know that most of these bargain hunters are not hard up for money. Most of them are well off and there is a good reason for this. They are thrifty in all areas of their life, and this is why they have so much in the bank. They don’t spend anything they don’t have to spend, and they hoard their money for a rainy day. It’s not a bad idea actually, though you should beware if you marry such a person. They may have a lot of money, but you can bet they aren’t going to spend a lot of it on you.
