Can I tell you something?

I’m not big on shopping. I’m a guy, so there’s that, but even for my gender I’m a stick in the marketing mud. I’ve never enjoyed the process of comparing product qualities and prices, quizzing salespeople how things are made and where they’re from, trying on garments, returning garments I didn’t try on, or completing credit card transactions and sharing contact information so they can bother me when I get home. I do like to squeeze lemons and thump melons, but that’s different.
