Never Buy Useless Garbage Ever Again With This Punny Shopping Flowchart

One of the unfortunate side effects of being an obsessive deal shopper is that, while scouring the internet for all those fantastic deals, you find a lot of garbage you don’t need but you end up buying anyway because it’s a great deal. For example, you don’t need that nine-foot talking Christmas tree holder that normally retails for $399.95; but when discount-talking-tree-holder.com has it on sale for $139.95, you’d be a blooming idiot not to buy two or three of them. Then you get your order in the mail, open it up, set up your talking Christmas tree stands, and only then do you realize… you’re Jewish. Oy.
Fear not, Punny shoppers. You can still cash in on blowouts without blowing out your budget on useless crap you don’t need. The next time you’re tempted to jump on a bargain, simply whip out the Punny Shopping Flowchart to see if you’re chasing a true deal or barking up the tree of trash.
You can also purchase the Punny Shopping Flowchart in PDF form for just $39.99. Click here to order the Punny Shopping Flowchart.

Can you fit it in your home > No > Save Your Money For a Bigger Home.
Can you fit it in your home > No > Can You Find it Cheaper Somewhere Else?
Is this a trick question? What do you do if you can fit it in your home? Buy 3!?!
You should have seen the flowchart I designed before leaving this comment. Unfortunately, it was on a napkin and I had to wipe my nose.

Crap, that should be a yes. I’ll edit it eventually. Thanks, Patrick.

All of my years of school taught me that the unlabeled line from “Do you already own it?” should be “yes.”
Absolutely funny, but absolutely true! (Also, I was hoping for a funny order form. What was written was good enough, though!)

I applied the flowchart to buying the pdf, but then I read the comments, so I clicked over anyway. Nice job.
