Ever seen girl math?
"If I preload my Starbucks account with $25 and I go to Starbucks the following week, my order was free."
"Spending money abroad doesn't count because it's a different currency."

Stupid people standing on soapboxes saying stupid shit.
Back in my day, people had to dedicate years of their life before they were given the opportunity to stand in front of hundreds of people and tell them things.

Anecdotally, I've only heard women use that sort of argument IRL. Kinda falls in the, "This widget is 80% so I'm saving money!"
Well, no, not if you didn't have to purchase the widget in the first place.
Men are hardly immune, but in my experience it's more so women.
ah yeah girl math where
"common irrational human psychology" + "deepseated hatred of women" = whatever the fuck this take is
As I recently learned,
"If I return clothes to the store (store credit), but then buy new clothes (using that store credit), those new clothes are free. (No new money spent)"
They aren't free but they are a sunk cost so you might as well
