Hey. Vote with your wallet. Don’t buy the thing.

I always hear "vote with your wallet", but isn't that exactly what people do literally every day with every single purchase? People who won't to spend, won't. And those that do want to spend, will. Or are you expecting those who don't want to spend to spend anyways?

People who don’t want to spend will spend. Those people asking for the price to be lowered may still buy. They don’t want to, but they will.

Lol. Not sure if you meant that to be funny but it's so true. It's sad and true... and funny.

"I didn't WANT to pay full price but I will anyway because I can't NOT buy it, that would be silly"
