We decided to use a little intellectual judo. We took the strategies listed in this book which are designed to sell you more stuff and turned them on their ear. Instead, we're going to tell you what to watch out for so that you don't make unnecessary purchases. First, shop with an attitude. Get in and out as quickly as possible.
Studies show that the more time spent shopping, the more money spent as well.
Second, reduce the need for, or size of the basket, you take. Shoppers have a tendency to fill baskets. That' s the reason why some stores only have large carts, or others scatter baskets around the stores. Third, don't talk to strangers, especially store clerks. It may sound a little rude, but research shows that the more time you spend chatting with store personnel, the more obligated you feel to buy something.
