For example, if you were ok with spending $350 per month for the car and the salesman came back and said “I can get you in the car you want for $377.00 per month out the door chances are you didn’t focus on the price of the car but the $27 bucks per month and rationalized that as two lunches out per month, couple packs of smokes or maybe a round of drinks (depending on where you live) and chances are if you really wanted that car you would pull the trigger and spend the extra $27 per month.
