Scan: milk, eggs, one non-essential that sparkles. Screen: total rises. Stomach falls. Question: “Buy the lamp today, yes or no?” with price in the sentence.
Wood does not know your budget. Your bank app does. Stomach beats lacquer.
If total hurts, put the lamp back. If total is fine and you still want a pause, pause. Pauses are free.
Entertainment only. Not advice. Scan groceries with honesty.
