Buyer Syndrome

The annual Christmas Bazaar is tomorrow
In a country village not far from my home,
Joy and glee casting out all seasonal sorrow
The annual Christmas Bazaar is tomorrow,
Quickly to the bank some cash, I’ll borrow
A few days later to feel a tinge of sorrow
My budget stretched by buyer syndrome,
The annual Christmas Bazaar is tomorrow
In a country village not far from my home.

Nice triolet. I wonder if you are going to attend or if this is prepandemic.

Oh, I'm going to attend. I've had four shots, so I should be protected, although I will wear my mask most of the time.

At least, when you run out of cash, that's it. With the elastic plastic, there's almost no limit these days...

Ah, which is why I went by the ATM and took cash with me... so I could monitor my spending.
