Usually the junk food is my primary goal when I go to the store. Then I get there, and the fresh produce section tells me I need veggies for dinner tonight. I spot the meat section and I remember that if I wanna make pasta, maybe some ground beef would be a good idea. Then I walk past the bakery and I buy some bread because I'm starting to run out and I'm here anyway, don't wanna have to make another trip to the store tomorrow. Oh wait, didn't I need detergent? Better go and get some of that. And oh hey, there's the checkout.

…wait. I forgot my junk food. Well I bought some bread, guess I'll just make a sandwich or something

Fates Blade says:

I assume they still lose a lot of money every year, so I wish they would stop having every item in ridiculous quantities and just have the ones in demand in high quantities.

Amy says:

I actually only use a basket, HOWEVER, my Food Bazaar has stopped carrying baskets since 2022! So I just carry what I can in my hands and f*ck anything else that I cannot carry!

Setsu Namikaze says:

As someone who works in a grocery store, I can confirm this. Even I fall into the unplanned buying while I work there. 😂

Ramez Razzouk says:

I prefer listening to crusader music while I do my shopping buizz
Funny enough, I have an issue with my nasal cavity so I am resistant to their olfactory illusions 😂😂

C0RY says:

Hi mat pat I luv ur hands. Why hands , HANDS💗😀

Supreme king Jesus says:

This is why I crub side I just buy what I need .

Jay Billie says:

Another trick they do are those buy 2 get 1 free, or buy 3 a lower price. A lot of times they don’t even apply the discount. It’s on you to pay attention.

listen to rock music to grocery stores get a noseplug

Gacha_gays says:

My family just orders groceries online, so we're mostly immune to the manipulation of grocery stores

Obsidian Scale says:

Don't even grab a basket if you need one thing. Use your pasty hands!

Gameskyjumper says:

What about the placement of frozen food? When I have a bucket of ice cream in my cart I always had the urge to leave since I don't want any of that to melt on my way home in hot summer.

killer demon says:

I am kinda immune to the hood looking food because I am way to addicted to my phone that I move the shopping cart with while looking at my phone

sebastian says:

It doesn't work on my uncle blase

Valence says:

I’m immune to smell tactics because my sense of smell is nonexistent

Impish Misconception says:

It's not just grocery stores, all stores of all kinds do this kind of stuff because they want you to buy things.

Fancy Pigeon says:

Baskets in Sweden have wheels with a handle so u don't need a big cart. Don't tell them this strategy please

kennington rund says:

This video only makes me appreciate my specific grocer (Wegmans) more. They have a quick access dairy section literally at the door. They have specific people to put back stuff you decided you didn't want at the register, and they have a small shopping cart option.

I am although aware that brand appreciation is probably a lot more effective than these tactics.

Hey I'm glad you found it here's a reward

Tips for fighting supermarket secrets

Smell-Use a mask when using strong perfume

lighting – wear sunglasses

Music – listen to loud aggressive, electric or active music on headphones

Core – Enter the supermarket with no money and make a map of the store where you are before taking your money and buying things, make an exact route of the places you have to go. run past the entrance of the store, take only what is on the shopping list and avoid talking to the employees

Oh and write down the things and their prices of what you are going to buy before you buy(sorry english is my second language
