yup…finally i’m almost 95 percent done with my shopping part…

probably the first one which was completely done for formal wear…i never brought something called formal for myself (except the pair that i brought for the placements season which was a disaster with over sized cuffs, broad pleats and i looked ragged in tht).

so,this time around like a newbie punter into the big leauge i completely banked on my coach(dats my dad) for the formal stuff.dad advised me to avoid the readymade stuff and go for the tailor made thing.

i avoided the dark colors and settled with the lighter ones.

finally the fabregas was brought and the tailor was sought….

i was very much confused with the tie stuff….they were damn costly and the price was almost equal to the that of a trouser…ridiculous isn’t it..??

more over i wasn’t able to apply RITZ fcTOR…..so resisted from buying tht…

whats this RITZ fcTOR…?

RITZ fcTOR is a variable coefficient which varies from 1 to 5.

I use it in my day to day life for shopping various objects whether may it be a mach 3 razor or a Mc donald burger…..

its based on the formula

price of the cheapest brand * RITZ fcTOR = price of the premium brand you are weighing to buy

for ex:

suppose you want to buy a pair of sneakers….you get the cheapest one at around 350-400 rs in POWER(BATA).Initially i dont look at the price of the premium brand.

now i calculate my RITZ fcTOR.i look at the durability,comfort /flexibility,place where i play /social surroundings and warranty of the premium brand over the cheapest brand and rate each of the above factor on a scale of 0 to 1.finally i add up the ratings of each factor and make up the RITZ fcTOR.

Now say that the RITZ fcTOR is 2.5 for this example…

applyin the formula 400 * 2.5=1000.so the maximum amount that i spend on the a sneakers is 1000-1200.if i dont get some thing in price band,i will either go with the cheaper product or wait for the prices to come down.

the factors and the weightage for each factor that i consider in calculating the RITZ fcTOR may vary depending on the product under consideration and the calculation is spontaneous and based on the individual instincts.

oh no…enough of economics for the day…

so the bottom line is i haven’t completed my shoppping yet…yet to shop for shoes,belts,ties…..nd many more trivial stuff….now the five percent seems like fifty…:D

guys do u think the RITZ fcTOR works….??

do comment on tht…:)

Ritz.
