My Kingdom for a nap

Cheap.
Nice.
Quick.

Pick two. Roy Williams (http://www.wizardofads.com) has said that it’s impossible to offer all three. Good product quick = high price. Good product cheap = some inconvenience in getting it, some time invested. If you want cheap and quick, the quality must suffer.

My perspective on how I shop has changed recently. I’ve always been busy—at one point it was grad school, yoga, golf and slight case of workaholism. I thought I was busy, but I was a naïve fool. Now it’s baby, baby, baby then work, with hopefully at least 20 minutes of husband time in there each week. Babies eat time like Pacman eats golf dots. I mean that in a good way because I love the little duck, but I’m overwhelmed. A week feels like a day. Every night when I was my face before bed, I stare in the mirror and wish for 2 more hours in the day.

I’ll pay more for anyone who can save me time. Find a way to make it easier. Then raise your price. I don’t mind. Profit all you want as long as I get another half hour to split between checking e-mail and singing Itsy Bitsy Spider.
