It's just a sales pitch and you are obligated to buy stuff that's way
overpriced.
You're only obligated if you think you are.

That's the way it works at sales parties. They count on the peer
pressure to get that buying spree going. I don't know of any similar
deal for men because men and women treat shopping differently. Men tend
to go to a store for something specific and they tend to go alone. Women
tend to like to shop. I am sure lots will want to disagree with that
but I know lots of women who like to go shopping as a social event. I
don't know any guys who do that.
Well, I could bring out my standard screed on statistics, but you're
probably right. I'm an outlier. I shop like a man and I loathe
"let's all go to the restroom together".
It could be that online shopping will kill the social aspects of
it, even for women. Only time will tell.
My late sister in law was a shopper. She spent just about every Saturday
and Sunday shopping with her friend. My friend's wife likes to go out
shopping with her daughter or with friends. My wife is not much of a
shopper but she did go to a few sales parties and she bought stuff.
