Did mom really need that pizza cutting kit?

Did you know 70% of the worlds shopping is done by women but 70% of the world’s money is earned by men? Well it’s true and women love to spend it! But men know that if the try to curtail that retail instinct in a marriage or a family their lives would be made hell. I was around my mums the other day and she proudly told me she had bought a ‘pizza cutting kit’ for £4.00. She doesn’t like pizza and has, and never will, make pizza. But she thinks she has a bargain and that’s all that matters. Women love a bargain and the marketers know that. My mom house is full of stuff like this that we all know will end up in the carboot/ swop meet for a buck. When men shop we are practical. We know what we want and what we want to pay and where to go. We know what we want the thing for and when we will use it. This is why we ask people exactly what they want for birthdays and Christmas. We don’t like surprises around retail. This is why tell you what we want for those birthdays and Christmases. Women, on the other hand, like to roam freely in the town center shops and retail parks like a wildebeest, just in case they missed something, like a pizza cutting kit.
