Save .28 a day and you will have the cost plus shipping in one year. I break down the price of something I want (not need) into daily cost and then decide how many years I can expect it to have value to me once paid for. It works for me. I broke down the price of a new top of the line sewing machine. Not enough value there at all. So I bought a less expensive one and feel good about it.
