Did It Just Wink At Me?

My sister has a favorite explanation for succumbing to a purchase. She simply states, "It winked at me." When something "winks" at Kathy, we all know how irresistible it had to be. Really, this is a good rule to follow for an unnecessary article, regardless if the expense is big or small. Is it something so desirable, unusual, or perfectly suitable, that it actually does more than just call you over to take a look? If you walk away without it, will you later regret it? Is something telling you to take it home and you will love it for a very long time? Sometimes it's a good thing to give into such a passionate purchase. How will you know you should really buy it? Next time just ask yourself, "Did it just wink at me?"
