"10 Things You Should Not Buy New"

I found an interesting article called the “10 things you should not buy new”. I find it very interesting because most of them I have bought new. I agree that if more people were to but things that are used we might be able to help the environment. For example just about everything that you buy has some sort of plastic on it so there is oil in it. If less people were to go and buy that product new and buy it used we could help in many ways. One we would have less waste because a lot of these items just get thrown away after so many years because nobody wants it anymore.
I also kind of disagree with some of them. For instance if I had the money or it was a great deal I would buy a new car. For many reasons, with newer technology it would probably be safe to say that a newer vehicle would be better on the environment because it would be giving off less CO2. Plus I am kind of picky on what I am going to drive.
Ok I will let you know what the 10 things you are not supposed to buy new are now that I have your attention: 1.) Books, 2.) DVD’s & CD’s, 3.) Little kids toys, 4.) Jewelry, 5.) sports equipment, 6.) Timeshares, 7.) Cars, 8.) Software and console games, 9.) Office furniture 10.)Hand tools
It does make sense if you wanted to save money especially with the economy the way it is right now more people are and should look into buying used goods to save money and help save the environment. I have never really been a “gamer” but I know a lot of my friends are and they would pay $70 or more for one game and about 8 months later a newer and better version of the game came out and you could buy the first one than for about half the price or less.
Well I hope everyone thinks about how much money they could save if they would just look a little and buy a few items used instead of new. Besides a lot of used items are just as good as new.
