A straightforward framework for making informed purchase decisions. The framework involves scoring each purchase criterion out of 5 and adding up the scores to determine whether or not to buy the item. The criteria include "Do I want it?", "Is it good value?", "Will I use it?", and "Will it spark joy?". The framework can be used for buying both for myself and for others. I suggest that using this framework can help avoid impulse purchases and buyer's remorse. Readers are encouraged to try it out and see if it works for them.
