This is a question False Economies

Sometimes the cheapest option isn't the right one. I fondly remember my neighbours going to a well-known catalogue-based store and buying the cheapest lawnmower they stocked. How we laughed as they realised it had non-rotating wheels and died when presented with grass. Tell us about times you or others have been let down by being a cheapskate.

Effortlessly bridging the ideological gap between the societal molecularisation of Hirst and the art brut nihilism of Emin, daring to assume the idiosyncratic perennial disposability of a big bag of shite.

I thought it entered into an exciting and challenging dialogue with the emerging zeitgeist
