🎯 Goal: Understand cheap, expensive, and real value.
You understand cheap/expensive does not tell all — what matters is "value": is it worth the money. Smart buying picks the best-value item.
Let’s explore
🏷️
Cheap means low price, expensive means high price. But price does not always show quality.
💎
Some cheap things work well; some expensive things break fast. Look at value — is it worth the money?
🧠
Smart buying is choosing the best value, not the cheapest or the priciest.
Practice activity
⚖️ Compare two similar items: which is better value and why?
Worked example: Two color boxes: A is 20,000d with 6 colors; B is 30,000d with 18 colors and lasts longer. You compare: B costs more but has more colors and durability, better value if you draw a lot.
