I'm a huge fan....I like toll lanes, grated cheese, online movie tickets, etc.
-
Absolutely!
-
Yes, I love convenience because I'm lazy!
-
Sometimes, but most of the time I'm way too cheap, haha.
-
For somethings I totally do, like toll lanes and paying more for items because I can get them close to the house even though I know if I planned a little, I could get it for cheaper online. But if I perceive a huge quality difference then I typically won't, like grated cheese or convenience store pastries.

Cheap>Lazy
I wish I could afford to pay for convenience but I always think...with that extra dollar I could buy xyz (:
-
Being cheap trumps convenience most of the time but if I'm with my husband, he'll pay for anything if it makes it easier...pretty sure we have the argument about short/long term parking every time we fly!
-
Yes, I pay for convenience. And I am willing to pay more for quality.
-
Sometimes!
-
Yes, but the EZ pass makes the turnpike tolls cheaper!
Amazon s&s - I don't care if it costs a bit more (its usually less and saves me a trip to target!)
-
Sometimes!
-
Sometimes. If I don't have movie vouchers then I will purchase online movie tickets but it has to be an am.c theater so it waves the fandango fee
I will call for pick up so the food is ready and I don't have to wait and tip the delivery guy.

For me, it's getting my gas pumped for me. Full service all the way.

@hellocupcake: agreed!!
I weigh cost with convenience vs time. If something is a convenience and would take a lot of time for me to make/do, I will pay for the cost of convenience. But if it's something that will take very little time (grating my own cheese), then I save money.
-
Convenience almost always wins for me.
-
Ayup.
-
Often, but not always. I'm cheap, but I'm pretty lazy too!
-
well in New England toll lanes are not optional for convenience; you just pay! We use EZpass since it's cheaper and quicker to get through tolls, but I don't count that as paying for convenience, since you pay either way.
We have a lawn/landscaping service, which is definitely convenience. I don't want to be out here mowing my lawn every week, fo'sho'!
Stuff like grated cheese I don't usually buy because it's a lot lower quality, and quality beats convenience for something that only saves like 45 seconds.
I do like things that are convenient though
-
Yes, especially now since my time is so much more precious now that I have a LO!
-
Always. I buy pre chopped tomatoes for taco night, I have phone chargers in all rooms and more
-
Yes! My hubby likes to say that time = money, so things that save time are worth it even if they cost more.
-
Only sometimes. I really wish certain things were accessible around my parts (for example: a car wash).
-
Usually. Especially now that my time is at a premium because of LO!
-
I always want to!!! I would if I could
-
Yes, yes, yes and yes!!!
-
It depends, if it is convenience and quality, yes. If it is convenience for time saving purposes, yes. Other things I would rather do the long/hard way.
