Cover Buy

When a person is embarrassed or does not want to be seen buying something in public, so they buy one or more things to cover up that purchase.
"Dude, why do you have this car magazine and teen life?"
"It was my cover buy when I bought this month's issue of hustler.."

"Why did you get new shampoo and a razor? The old ones are fine!" "I had to buy another 30-pack of extra large tampons so I used it as my cover buy.."

Best Buy

A huge electronics store with two employees on the floor who are not cashiers. The two employees will keep at least a 50 foot buffer between themselves and any customer at all times. They will studiously avoid eye contact. If you find the item you are looking for, it will always cost 10X as much as it does on amazon- that is in no way an exaggeration. If you foolishly decide to push on with your purchase, you will first have to navigate a 300 yard long single path labyrinth of garbage impulse buy items. Be sure to take a water bottle and use the restroom before entering. These items can range from the worst (yet still overpriced) generic usb cord ever made, to expired corn nuts. When you do make it to the cashier, you will be pressured relentlessly to purchase an “extended warranty” on whatever you are buying- even if it is just the aforementioned corn nuts. The intense pressure to purchase said warranty will be interminable. It will be worse than the “coffee is for closers” scene in Glen Gary Glen Ross. If you survive this, you will be given a 6 foot long receipt in case you need to “return” the item(s). Return is in quotes as it is purely hypothetical, No one in recorded history has ever succesfully returned an item to Best Buy.
Bob: Hey, where should we hang out tonight?
Sally: I was thinking either Best Buy or the sixth circle of Hell.
Bob: OK, Hell it is!

buy-product

An undesirable "secondary" expense dat you get saddled with due to your having purchased an item.
Items like vehicles and paper-printers are excellent --- and notorious --- examples of frequently needing "buy-products"... the price of the items itself may be incidental when compared to all of the subsequent high-cost commodities that you will have to supply said item with in order to keep it operational, such as fuel, fluids, ink-jet cartridges, etc.
