You shouldn’t have to spend a fortune to make better decisions.

However, you will have to outweigh your current cost of an item to its long-term cost. For instance, if you are looking to purchase new bath towels, 100% cotton may be the cheapest. However, its absorbency and softness will last a year before you have to purchase a new set. How about a 100% organic bamboo towel set instead, which will last you longer but cost a little more money at the outset?
