We explore the complex relationship between cost and quality, debating whether "more expensive is always better." We deep dive into the fascinating psychology, sneaky marketing tactics, and real-world financial implications behind our purchasing decisions. We discuss a range of products, including mattresses, groceries, clothing, and cosmetics. We explore why we're often convinced to pay more and when it makes sense.
