💨 Abstract

The article discusses nine items and services that consumers should not skimp on to avoid long-term costs and risks. These include legal representation, home security systems, household appliances, tires, flights, bedding, tools, tattoos, and UV-protective sunglasses. Skimping on these can lead to higher costs, safety issues, or poor outcomes. For instance, cheap legal advice can result in unfavorable outcomes, and low-quality tires can compromise safety and fuel efficiency.
