Best Bang for your Buck

Being the sucker that I am, I got all excited when I spotted the Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer Tinted Lip Balm at Harnett's in Harvard Square. Ignoring the salesperson's verdict that "nutmeg looks good one everyone," I chose a darker "raisin." I had to go back the next day and purchase the "nutmeg" and she was right, it's much better. I received my copy of Real Simple recently only to find the Burt's Bees awarded "Best Bang for your Buck" in their tinted lip balm feature. I'd like to think that I have cool taste and I'm not a tool. I feel vindicated for my impulse buy.
