Yes, I am definitely being judgmental about the other shoppers. It simply makes me happier to spend my money elsewhere, both because I like the stuff I get better, and because I like being in the presence my shopping peers better.
If more people thought, and shopped, like you and me, I don't think we'd be in the economic crisis we are. Really. Americans are obsessed with buying a lot of crap for cheap, and now - pun intended - we're paying the price for it.
