GauchoTV: You Bought WHAT!?!

Posted by MarvPratt on May 6th, 2010 in GauchoTV

Remember that one time you thought “hey, I’m going to buy this awesome [fill in the blank with horrible thing you bought]!”? Well, that is what this week’s episode of Gaucho TV is all about. Kinda. Sorta. This week kicks off the first edition of “You Bought WHAT!?!” A tribute to the crazy prices people pay for things that are of questionable actual value. Art is great, but so long as there are starving artists, why must people pay Picasso over 100 million dollars for his stuff. He’s dead, he can’t do anything with the money! Let’s think of the poor guys and gals who are trying to unload their charming hand-painted canvasses on street corners. Think of what THEY could do with that kind of cash. Also, would you pay more than a million dollars for a car from 1930′s? Someone did. A lot more than that, actually.

So you see, it’s not so much about savings this week, but about how others choose NOT to save when buying stuff they probably don’t need in the first place. This episode will make you feel better about splurging on a $100 pair of sunglasses. Particularly when you realize you didn’t spend $500 on them. And if you spent $500 on sunglasses, WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?

Additionally this week, Marv looks at the Top 5 Mother’s Day gifts. With shopping days dwindling down to zero for Mother’s Day, y’all better get on the ball! And if you’re looking for a free shipping, be sure to check out the Free Shipping deals at gaucho.com (shameless plug!). It’s a fun-filled 7 minutes of your day, so enjoy this episode and tell your friends!
