Should I get one box or two?

I think this must be a thing that happens to everyone. You see a new product in the store- food, beauty product (soap or something), even clothing.. It's on sale, two for whatever price, or maybe not even on sale.. so you outweigh the pro's and cons and decide if you should get more than one of the product.

I often find that when I decide to get just one of the product then it is often great. The food turns out to be delicious, or the clothes feel amazing and fit just right. So then I wish I would have gotten two of the product. But, it also often seems if I decide to get two of a product I've never tried, it ends up being crap then I'm stuck with food or clothes I don't want.

I bought a box of lime flavored wheat thins yesterday. I wasn't sure I'd like them but they're delicious! I almost got two boxes because they were on sale, but didn't because I wasn't sure I'd like them. I found some organic soap the other day and it was a great price so I ended up buying four bottles.. turns out I'm allergic though. Should have just tried one bottle first.

Does this happen to anyone else?

 

All the time. It's kind of a tick of mine.. I'll see something that looks boss and think I should get at least two. So many times I'll wish I had and when I go back to get more it's gone.. I hate that.

I saw this chorizo at the grocery store the other day, and it was half price. Totally should have gotten two..

 

I do that a lot, I used to buy them too, mostly grocery products but then my pantry would be overfilled with sauces and stir fry ingredients lol and honestly unless you'll use them you're losing money.

 

Always buy two boxes you never know when the zombie apocalypse will be upon us

If a product (other then food) is a great product I buy three, two because I hate to have one, and later I want it again and it's no longer, the third because I send one to my mom. Sometimes it's not what she likes but that's ok, can still give it a s a gift. She does almost the same thing. In the summer we have what looks like a swap fest.
If it's a food I buy one if it's new to me and loads if it is cheaper then usual and store it in my basement in a pantry or my freezer.

 

This happens every single time i go to a good beer store. The closest one is an hour away so i dont go every day. So when i do go i do my best to get a few of the ones i think i will like but it isnt easy to do.

I guess my mind wasn't totally in the gutter today because I'm just now realizing that if I saw someone post a thread with this title, I'd probably think it was about condoms.
