Why do we all act like sheep when it comes to buying home electrics?

I'm talking about wide screen tv's with HD, blue ray players etc etc, i mean people will fight with each other to be the first to own the latest technology, and pay WELL over the odds for it to..





why is that??Why do we all act like sheep when it comes to buying home electrics?
Some people dont have a mind of their own. Typical nature





John ';Jenny darling, did you know Cathie down the road bought a new wide screen?';


Jenny ';Really?';


John ';Yes, lets get one';


Jenny ';cant afford it';


John ';so what?';Why do we all act like sheep when it comes to buying home electrics?
It's only a minority of people who actually do that. Most people are happy to just stick with what they've got until it breaks.





My own widescreen TV is ten years old, and the (square) TV I had before that was ten years old. I might get a HDTV in a few years time.
not all people just some, most of us dont fight to be first, for one thing we have more sense and for another we dont have the money so if we want a new tv, comp, blue ray or whatever, we think carefully about it and shop around before buying
I am not one of the first as being the first to buy anything ';new'; would also mean paying the most expensive so I make sure I buy all goods when they are much lower in price.
I guess your still at school so why is it that all kids want the latest designer gear?
They like to show off their latest ';baagain';.
Well I don't . I haven't even bought a flat screen TV yet.
Human nature, people like to show off.
cos we all need somewhere to wash our wooly jumpers !!! boom boom - sorry couldn't resist LOL
