Mi vida es comprar ropa online, probármela, amar algunas prendas, odiar otras tantas, pero nunca regresar las menos afortunadas y decidir que mejor es acumularlas en el clóset. Sí, aun cuando puedo volver a ponerlas en su empaque original y devolverlas sin costo alguno. Sé que soy de lo peor, pero no la única en esto... pues resulta que todo mundo lo hace desde siempre. La millennial promedio conserva aproximadamente tres prendas, de 800 pesos, por año, que no le gustan, esto de acuerdo con la nueva encuesta de Cosmo US. Son 2,400 pesos, un dinero desperdiciado que podría usar para algo como ¿unos boletos de un concierto? ¿El gasto mensual de mis cafés? Haz la suma y verás que, colectivamente, estamos desperdiciando millones de pesos al año. Te decimos por qué y cómo.
Odiamos tomarnos la molestia
Estamos mal acostumbradas a hacer lo más conveniente. “Ocurrió una tendencia de miles de servicios que se dedican a eliminar los problemas diarios de nuestras vidas. Actualmente pueden llevarnos nuestro súper a la puerta de nuestras casas, así como comida, productos de belleza y prácticamente todo”, dice Verónica Thomas, profesora de marketing de Towson University. Con cada app nueva la vida se vuelve más fácil, nos condicionan a pagar por una vida libre de estrés. Esto es especialmente cierto para gente como yo, porque envolver un empaque y tener que enviarlo, en definitiva, no es algo para mí, en especial si tengo que cubrir cualquier cuota de devolución. La verdad prefiero perder esos pesos y quedarme envuelta en mis cobijas viendo Netflix.
No nos detiene el dinero sino el tiempo
