iPhone Consumption: Where’s the Weirdest Place You’ve Bought Something?

When I ask about the weirdest place you’ve bought something, I don’t mean it to point fingers at the strange consumption habits your browser has been conditioned to develop. That’s on you and that shit is private.

This is a question about physicality — as in, where is the weirdest place you have been physically positioned while you were buying something? I know personally, I bought a pair of yellow Balmain jeans while touring The Breakers — a mansion in Rhode Island that once belonged to Cornelius Vanderbilt — last week. We were in the former butler’s pantry. (I went on to return them yesterday.) When I was asked this question some weeks ago, the inquirer admitted she’s a regular airplane-shopper. It’s those literal fight or flight moments that propel her to the point of consumer-based decision making. Because once the WiFi is off and you’re in the air, the dollars aren’t real…right?

But who cares about us. Think about this for a second. Where’s the weirdest place you’ve flexed your mobile device’s expertise in, you know, mobility and bought something? I’m not saying I will try to practice some Myers Briggs personality exam shit on you, but there is a 20% chance that with your answer will come some version of a personality assessment. So, go on…
