I once heard it explained that every sales transaction is a competition in which the winner is the one that walks away with the cash. There are obvious limits to this, but i like the idea of it. That's what sales and marketing has become (not necessarily what it always was). Depending on the competitive spirit of the children, this could be a way of framing consumerism that makes them reconsider, or at least pause.
