While time can certainly be considered
valuable, it can't be accrued and actually
spent on commodities, the way money can. Which is why the "time is money" axiom is pretty much irrelevant with regard to "searching for a bargain" (unless one is using vacation time to bargain-hunt).
In my experience, nobody uses time they can't afford to save $10 they don't feel like wasting.
