Don't let them rush you. When the time comes you have to buy goods pick out a day in the week, when you will have time to visit all the stores and look over the goods. Don't be stampeded into town on Saturdays like a lot of cattle. The stores know I can not wait on one-tenth the customers when you come on Saturdays, and they figure you won't wait and will have to buy from them. Take your time to buy goods, examine the stuff, compare the prices. If you have to come Saturdays Just buy what you have to have. Pick some other day for your big purchases. You will get better prices, better goods, better service. Don't let them rush you.
