How women see it: Hon! They had coconut scented knickknacks on sale... Regularly $140 but they were reduced to $99. I saved $41!!! How men see it: Great! She blew $99
I am a woman and NEVER thought I was “saving” when buying at a reduced price! Also, I hate shopping. I only buy what I need. Though my ex-husband did not do the same.
I’m with you sfreader1. I’m a woman and hate shopping too. I do love saving on stuff I need, though. My husband would never hunt for a coupon online before buying a necessity… but I still love him.
Wow. This comic has been going gradually downhill, but I never thought they’d stoop to sexist, gender based humor. This is the kind of grade school crap bad comedians use to get dumb rednecks to laugh. Fail.
That’s the problem – it’s not ‘saving’ at all, it’s just spending less. But then, it’s such a ‘bargain’ that they spend more anyway. (In order to ‘save’ more!)

You can go into bankruptcy saving money like that.

Man will pay $5 for a $3 item he needs. Woman will pay $3 for a $5 item she doesn’t need.

Men buy, women shop. The more you shop, the more you spend. The more you buy, the less you spend.
