What's the situation?
This smart idiom isn't just for arguments! When you're out shopping, especially with a budget or limited time, you can't have *everything* you want. This expression is perfect for when you need to decide which items are truly essential, which ones are worth a splurge, and where you can compromise or skip entirely. It's about being strategic with your shopping! 🛍️✨
