If you find something you like that's a bargain, why not buy two? I got some inexpensive dollar sunglasses I liked a while ago and bought two pairs. Now one is shot, and I am working on the second one. (And I just found another style I liked and bought another two pairs, for $2.)

Good idea except for one thing: cheap sunglasses do not protect against UVA and UVB rays. Very important for strong sunlight such as in California--in fact, anywhere, summer or winter.
Note re the rays - Don't think that's always true - I get bargain sunglasses that state they are UVB protective, etc. They are just last year's make or model....And then I get very light tinted ones for varying conditions.
This is a good tip I don't always remember and then am sorry when I can't find the item again. I don't think it has to be something that's real cheap either....just something you really like....like a certain kind of shoes perhaps.
Why spend two dollars when you have only one?
Also, when on such a tight budget, we cannot afford the first one, most of the time, and are thrilled to find ANYTHING extra that we can. For example, we
I suppose buying 2 at one time goes back to the theory of stockpiling - that is, if you can afford it - stocking up when you see a bargain - so you don't have to go back to buy it at full price. Of course, if the $ is really tight, you just get what you CAN afford at the moment - it's all a matter of where you are financially.
