We have a rule of three. If there's something you see that you want and end up coming back to it 3 or more times, you buy it.
I've gotten a number of items this way, like my Deadpool jersey. I couldn't justify spending like $40 on it to myself, but I really liked the design and material. I kept finding my way back to the stand, so I bought it at the direction of my wife before we left. I love that thing in the winter because it keeps me cozy without making me sweat.
This is interesting. The rule of three for bigger things, how does that work? Do you say “this is the third time I’ve researched/looked at/talked to some about, it’s time to do it”?
Appreciate the response.
I'm an odd case, as I'm in a throuple. So we can do the rule of 3 by vote alone 🤣
But fr, its more like discussing and airing wants vs need vs cost over a few sessions to make sure it's something we want and sits well with everyone.
I feel like a dummy, I had no clue what “throuple” was… after looking it up, oooooh couple but for three people 🤦♂️
Got it, I can see how that would require a consensus of opinion!!
