Check out this little ditty that QVC is seducing its audience into buying as we speak (10:27 p.m. ET). Note the price and the option to “Speed Buy.”
Imagine waking up tomorrow and coming to the realization that you spent $3,500+ on a watch you didn’t know you “needed” the day before. Is it any wonder we’re in debt up to our eyeballs? And don’t tell me it’s all the fault of the little people.
UPDATE: Oooh. Now they’re pushing the “ultimate status piece.”
