We're faced with this problem many times each day, and have become conditioned to default to buy.
What if we reset to make, and then buy is a special case?
Intrinsic satisfaction, less waste, stronger relationship with our habitat, and needs emphasised over money making. Activity focused on making, then less sense of hollow leisure time (much time saved is wasted, and much of which is spent shopping!). Basically, must makes more sense.
Neoliberal market thinking says exchange efficiency matters (profiting is the purpose), whereas resource efficiency leads to a very different outcome (careful use to meet needs).
