Lady Gaga Sells 1.1 Million

7 Cheap Purchases That Will Make You Pay
There are times when you need to pay, because sometimes going cheap will cost you more in the long run. Investopedia says don't cheap out on these 7:


  1. Footwear (cheap athletic shoes could cause injury!)
  2. Mattress (A good mattress should last 10 years)
  3. Electronics (make a two year commitment to your purchase)
  4. Food (Buying just because it's on sale is a waste, they say)
  5. Furniture (leather wears out more slowly than fabric, for example)
  6. Vehicle (if the price is too good to be true, then it is)
  7. Cookware (look for lifetime warranties)
