This is the way. I haven’t shopped at walmart (15 years), target (8 years) amazon (never) and I get along just fine. Everything they sell other than food is junk and winds up costing more money in the long run to buy goods that dont last from those outlets.

It’s best to save your bread and buy something once that will last a lifetime when ever possible.

Flea markets , garage sales, Craig’s list, consignment shops, second hand stores, ebay etc
