Sellers have long learned to manipulate people's minds and force them to make unplanned purchases. In order not to fall for their tricks, you need to know the ways that will help you resist experienced marketers.
Instructions
Step 1
The items in the store are arranged in such a way that you will want to buy even the most useless item. To avoid this, write your shopping lists in advance, and when you come to the hypermarket, immediately go to the departments where the products you need are located.
Step 2
Take with you only the amount of money you need to buy the items on the list. Of course, for this you need to find out the price of all products, but when you wait in line at the checkout, you will not take a chocolate bar, since you simply will not have enough money for it.
Step 3
When comparing prices, always round up. For example, if you see a price of 99 rubles, just know that the item costs 100 rubles. This approach will help you compare costs rationally.
Step 4
Always eat a heavy meal before shopping. If you feel hungry during the purchase, then be sure to pick up a whole cart of semi-finished products. However, if you come to the store full, then the excess products will seem less attractive.
Step 5
Don't be tempted to buy something at a discount. Yes, sometimes it's beneficial if you really need the products. Otherwise, you are just wasting money.
Step 6
Good advertising of a product and a high price does not mean its unconditional quality. It is better to read real reviews about it, try cheaper analogs, then you can say for sure whether you need this product or not.
Step 7
Take someone you trust with you. Give him the list and tell him not to let you buy anything extra. Thus, you will be reliably insured against marketing gimmicks.
