My inbox with post-Thanksgiving deals is inundated
I wonder how my email account is not yet saturated
With offers from every vendor under the sun
It is not like a lottery I have won
My purchasing power is the same as before
I don’t think I can buy shiny baubles anymore..
*
Every business big and small is trying to entice
Customers with discounts that seem really nice
I assume most customers are like me
I have only a limited capacity
To browse goods and sniff out the best deals
Going through a maze of offers stressful does feel
*
Don’t get me wrong, I love when I can buy things on sale
But this over-enthusiastic marketing is likely to fail
In achieving its objective- I do not need to be
Inundated with advertisements to contribute to the economy
