A while back, I was in Kentucky to escort Milton home. [Logistics: Shipping]
While there, I went to watch the horse show in Louisville. [Spotted on the Green Shavings]
One of the show vendors was selling a bag of 50 (!!) double ended-snaps. That’s a lot of snaps! It was a good deal per unit, but that many units multiplied out to a wad of cash. I think it may have been $75 for the bag. Snaps were going for about $2 then. I figured it would appeal to some of the megabarns at the show.
Later, I told my husband about it.
H: Did you buy a bag?
Me: No.
H: Why not?
Me: Uhhh …
Now, whenever I buy more double-ended snaps, which I did recently, I have two questions:
1) Why did I not buy that bag of snaps? Why?!?!?
2) Where do they all go?!?
Onwards!

We’ll never know!
OTOH, when I buy in bulk, my life changes and I’m left with 3/4 of the lot.So, maybe you were just plain smart.

Ohh, those snaps are so useful, but … a bag of them? I would have been reluctant to buy a whole bag like that, too.
