Something to think about

I read a thing on the internet by Nicole Cherie Jone's about shopping and tips to help. I thought there were some good one's , so here are a few.




#1- The entrance area

Store's call it a chill zone cause you stop there to impulse buy- you know like dvd's, candy, holiday products, things that appeal to us emotionally.

Best defence? see the products for what they are filler items not on your list !

#2- Produce department

It is in the front, were you are less disiplined in spending at the start. It also gets the highest profit margin.

Save this for last it will be fresher and less bruised any way.

#3- Specials

It has the power to override your reasoning. We think bargain with out thinking value.

So they say if you would pay reg price then get the special otherwise skip it.

#4- Buried products

They know you buy more what's right in front of you. So they put the most popular items you really need, in the back or in the middle trying to get you to buy more.

If it is not on the list move on skip it !!

#5- Private label's

They are not all ways the best deal. They put them in the front of the store but some brand names have better sales to try to keep alive, and the store is trying to make you not see.

Bottom line compare prices every time.

#6- Samples

Face it, you know they are there to sell you it.

So don't shop hungry. and hit them last so the insulin rush does not affect you bottom line.


So we learn,

#1- don't shop hungry

#2-buy less waste less

#3-bank your cash

#4-if you can, leave kids at home so they are not begging for candy and stuff
#5-but the house brand






So hope you got some good things from this. Have fun shopping :)
