I have finally charged!
ORT, the Oxford Reading Tree.
Spring 2020, I have encountered this serial educational material and been wondering if we should incorporate into our life for almost a year.
Then, finally ordered lured by its year end sale.
Let's see how it works on my kids, hubby and me.
ORT オックスフォードリーディングツリー。
2020年の春にこのシリーズ物の教材に出会ってから、約1年、生活の中に取り入れるか悩み続けてきたけれど。
ついに、年度末セールにほだされて、注文しちゃった。
子供達、夫、そして私にどんな影響がでるか！
I have finally chargommitted!
As originally written, this is a funny play on words. 'Charged' does indeed mean 'to buy with a credit card,' but usually takes an object. The way you have used it, it means 'to go forward aggressively' as in 'The knight charged into battle.' If you understood the dual meaning, then I applaud the poetry of your words ;)

There are many ways to write this. 'I finally ordered it because I was lured in by its year-end sale.' 'It went on sale, so I finally ordered it.' While many people might include the 'Then,' it isn't necessary in this context. I like your use of the word 'lured.'
Let's see how it works onfor my kids, hubby and me.
The ORT won't do anything without you, your kids or hubby putting it to use, so 'for' is more approprite. A mechanic works 'on' a car. A therapist works 'on' a person.

You have a lively, interesting voice in English!
