Maybe kids are earning vbucks by doing chores?
I too think its pants-on-head retarded to buy skins, but i remember being a kid and only wanting a certain toy because its popular right now. The amount of kids who wanted pokemon cards but didnt know how to play was unreal.
I tell the truth in all but the most necessary psychological self-defence because I'm having difficulty remembering that I need to get stuff for dinner tonight, I dont need to keep track of an intricate web of lies on top of that.
