Shopping and budgeting may follow mathematical rules, but in the world of Girl Math, logic takes a backseat to creative financial reasoning.
Fez– If you’ve ever seen a girl justify an expensive purchase, you’ve witnessed an elite form of mental gymnastics. It’s called Girl Math, a system where numbers bend, logic reshapes itself, and everything somehow makes perfect financial sense… to her.
Spending money to save money
In Girl Math, buying something on sale isn’t an expense, it’s an investment. If a 200 DH dress is now 100 DH, she didn’t spend 100 DH; she saved 100 DH.
Never mind that she wasn’t planning to buy the dress at all. It’s practically a crime not to take this “once-in-a-lifetime” deal.
And if she buys two, well… now she’s basically a financial genius.
The magic of free shipping
If a store offers free shipping on orders over 400 DH and her cart total is 320 DH, there is only one logical solution: add an 80 DH item to avoid wasting money on a 50 DH shipping fee.
Sure, she could have spent just 370 DH with shipping. But in Girl Math, paying for shipping is an insult. Buying an extra item feels free, which means the money doesn’t count.
The credit card illusion
Cash? That feels real. A credit card? Monopoly money. If she swipes, it’s like it never happened. There’s no physical exchange of money, so technically, her bank balance stays the same… until next month’s statement arrives, but that’s a future her problem.
Besides, if the purchase is under 100 DH, does it even count? No. It’s basically like breathing air, free and necessary.
The “Boyfriend Budget”
If her boyfriend buys her coffee, lunch, or a gift, her personal bank balance remains untouched. This means she just made money. If he covers dinner, she can reallocate her funds to something more practical… like another pair of shoes.
It’s basic economics, redistributing wealth where it truly matters.
The “I returned something” formula
If she buys a 200 DH bag and later returns it, she now has 200 DH in spending power. It doesn’t matter if that money originally came from her bank account. In Girl Math, a refund is extra money. It’s like a gift from her past self to her present self.
The “It’s practically free” mindset
If something costs 500 DH but she’s using a 200 DH coupon, she’s not spending 300 DH, she’s getting 500 DH worth of stuff for only 300 DH. That’s free money. And free money doesn’t count.
While normal math follows strict rules, Girl Math follows the laws of happiness. If the numbers make sense to her, then they make sense, period.
And honestly? Who are we to argue with flawless financial logic?
