thank you very much please come again we have a lot more groceries going to the supermarket and
buying groceries has become a weekly ritual for most of us so it's easy for you to be on autopilot
while shopping and miss the subtle tricks that stores use to get more money out of your pocket
so let's find out about 10 industry secrets that make you buy more food we need more food
fresh bread won't stay that way for long i'll get fat no why would i get fat bread makes you
fat bread makes you fat there's no denying the rustic charm that comes with getting your bread
from the supermarket in a cute brown bag but the way your local grocer packages bread is
likely a way to make it go stale faster this prompts customers to buy more bread if their
loaf goes stale before they can finish it which brings more traffic to the store and allows them
to pocket more money from shoppers if you want to keep your bread fresh for as long
as possible make sure to put your bread in an airtight bag as soon as you get home this
will lock in freshness and ensure you have time to properly enjoy it before it starts
going stale really didn't feel like eating it i can imagine and i didn't have any bread
freezing your bread will also keep it fresh if you don't intend on eating it right away though it's a
bit of a bummer that supermarkets want your bread to go stale faster there are ways for you to keep
it fresh for as long as possible which will end up saving you time and money hello i like money keep
receipts i i i don't have i don't have everything to get back without a receipt grocery store
shoppers are people of habit when you're going on your weekly shopping trip it's more often than not
you're buying the essential items you need to stock up on for yourself and your family in
fact online sources cite that 80 percent of what shoppers buy every week stays the same meaning
there is often little variation in what's going into your cart with this in mind you can easily
track the prices of your go-to items by holding on to receipts this way you'll be able to tell which
foods are on sale full price or more expensive than usual that is your receipt for your husband
thank you it has been mentioned that shoppers rarely remember the prices of their essential
groceries and as a result can often pay more for what they need without meaning to grocery stores
are well aware of what their customers really need so it's important to be wary of any possible
changes in price to make sure you're getting the best deal by keeping the receipt you can
make sure you're paying the same amount or lower for your groceries week by week using the previous
week's spending as a reference point a receipt she actually paid buy one get one isn't always
that great buy one get one free huh buy one yeah i get that get one free one way supermarkets like
to lure shoppers in is through bogo sales where customers can buy one item and get the second
one for a discounted price usually around 50 percent off it's a pogo so what a local free phone
however the wording of these types of sales can be deceiving and lead you to believe that
you're getting a better deal on these items than you actually are in reality the discounts you
get with a bogo sale aren't much to write home about if you're buying one item for full price
and getting the second one for 50 off you're only getting a 25 reduction on both items which doesn't
amount to much savings if you're buying something like chips or canned fruit savings experts online
are telling customers that discounts of 50 or more are the ones to take advantage of because
it means the sale is legitimate though buy one get 150 off may not be that great of a deal
buy one get one free means that you're saving 50 on both items providing you with a maximum savings
buy one dumpling get one free the items at the end of the aisles aren't always on sale
i went to costco today because they were having a sale on those padded toilet seats ever trying to
turn the corner at your local grocery store only to get bombarded with advertisements for doritos
goldfish crackers or mountain dew the ends of the aisles at the supermarket often called end caps by
those in the industry are usually flashy enough to catch customers attention but that doesn't
necessarily mean you'll be getting anything on sale contrary to popular belief the items placed
on end caps aren't always marked down from full price rather they're usually used as promotions
paid for by certain brands to drive more sales for new products this strategy is often used by
snack brands like tostitos or nabisco who drop new flavors for their snacks often and need to
advertise them to consumers though looking at end caps can be a great way to find a new and exciting
snack you won't be getting the best deal possible by looking there my life has been a lie getting
your munchies at the dollar store is a much better idea they usually have huge selections of snacks
and treats which usually cost a lot less than what you'd pay if you bought them at the grocery store
but when it comes to matters like this the dollar stores will stand united the veggies are placed in
front for a reason the only way to get the best produce is to have first pick of the day when
you walk into the supermarket you're almost always greeted by the bright colors and textures of the
produce section this seems to be the standard for every supermarket no matter where you go
grocery stores put the produce up front because of the bright colors and fresh-looking products which
will more often than not put their customers in a good mood for shopping human brains love color
and react positively to seeing the bright hues of fresh fruits and veggies which in turn will
make you feel a little happier about what is basically a tedious weekly errand aren't all
vegetables who want it all vegetables not only that but the fresh misting of vegetables as you
make your way through the produce aisle is also intentional the water droplets on the food makes
them look that much more appetizing even though it doesn't do all that much to keep the produce fresh
not only that but the water droplets add weight to your produce making that head of lettuce weigh a
little more than normal at the checkout kiosk be sure to shake out your leafy green veggies
before weighing them to make sure you're not getting overcharged hey a penny saved is a
penny earned when the carrot is done with you you will be nothing but a conqueror marketing uses all
five senses i love all the smells what i'm trying to do is get all five senses really coming alive
in order to effectively run a grocery store not everything has to be about the visuals
though you may not think much about the smell of fresh bread or rotisserie chicken when you
enter the store these tiny touches are completely intentional and are used as a way to subliminally
market the mouth-watering foods to customers if you smell a fresh baguette right upon entering the
store you're more likely to think about how a warm crunchy loaf of bread would be perfect to enjoy at
home even if the bread wasn't on your shopping list if you go shopping especially while you're
hungry the scents alone can be tempting enough for you to purchase more food than you intended
on buying before arriving at the supermarket it's like letting you go grocery shopping hungry
marketing certain foods using smells is also effective because it's effortless customers don't
think of the delicious scent of juicy rotisserie chicken as a marketing ploy but will rather just
assume it's part of the natural supermarket environment creating a loyal customer base that
enjoys the supermarkets environment is crucial for any business in the ever-growing ever-changing
food industry and the smells of tempting delicious foods will likely help to keep consumers coming
back for more what is that smell that's a smell of desire my lady if you buy more you'll consume more
we're buying in bulk is what i gotta get it right though it can be hard to resist a good sale at the
grocery store sometimes the phrase less is more still manages to hold true even at the supermarket
you may think that putting a lot of groceries in your cart may be a good way to stock up on food
for the rest of the week but you may find that the food you bought disappears far more quickly
than intended even if you're buying a huge box of cereal that is supposed to last the entire month
it can go by far quicker if you're used to eating an entire small box every week
i want to tell you about this man i know his name is captain crunch the size of our grocery orders
are getting bigger which can in turn change our habits and cause us to spend more money
as a result be mindful of the upscaling and the sizing of many foods and beverages and make sure
you're consuming your groceries at a normal rate you may think that getting 200 worth of groceries
is a smart idea when you want to stock up but having all that extra food in your refrigerator
may tempt you to eat or drink more than usual make sure you're monitoring your daily eating habits
remember staying alert at the grocery store will keep your habits from changing too much i wish you
told me that before i bought all these groceries staying close by is good for business oh wow
it's a grocery store for some grocery shopping can be a stressful mess of an experience
for others however it's a great way to distract yourself from school or work and can be a fun and
effective way to get your mind off of whatever is bothering you either way grocery stores want
you to stay for as long as possible as a lingering longer will likely put more money in their pockets
staying near shelves stocked to the brim with food makes the temptation to buy more even greater
cleanup most stores use subtle and sneaky tricks to keep customers in the store for
as long as possible with one of them being the music choices grocery stores tend to keep the bpm
of their music on the slow side which allows customers to relax and settle into the store
instead of rushing to get in and out as fast as possible needless to say you can combat
this temptation by wearing headphones or earbuds to the grocery store by playing your own upbeat
tunes while you shop only for what you need you'll be a lot speedier with your purchases and won't be
tempted to spend any extra money this works great if you're on a tight budget and can't
spend more than a certain amount or if you're just someone who loves food i gotta go to the bathroom
dinner is served never mind i can hold it the milk myth got milk
shopping for milk at the grocery store may feel like second nature to you at this point but it
may actually be better to grab your milk the next time you're at the gas station convenience store
or picking up your prescription at the drugstore compared to the milk you buy at the grocery store
the milk found in these smaller stores can cost up to 50 cents less by the gallon which can amount to
massive savings in the long run the milk found in mini marts and drugstores also tends to be
the exact same brands you buy at the supermarket so you can have peace of mind knowing that the
milk you're buying is hormone-free and in some cases locally produced i see you're drinking one
percent is that because you think you're fat there have been numerous theories about the placement of
milk in the back of most supermarkets with some people speculating that grocery stores do this
in order to get people to travel all the way through the store to pick up an essential item
tempting them to buy more as they make their way to the dairy isle though this may be true others
online think that the consistent placement of milk in the back of every grocery store is for a much
simpler reason to unload the milk easily since milk is such an integral part of many people's
diet deliveries have to be made to stores regularly and placing the fridges in the
back of the store makes it all the more convenient for milk to get unloaded and refrigerated quickly
though it may not be a ploy to get you to walk all the way through the supermarket it seems like
shoppers dropping items in their carts on their way to pick up some milk is a happy after effect
of placing dairy in an area that is convenient for deliveries gut milk that's a funny one too
skip the deli and seafood counters okay don't mess this one up i i didn't i didn't mess it up though
buying your meat and fish from the counter at your local grocery store sounds like the best way
to get the highest quality meat the sad reality is that the meat and fish you find behind the counter
isn't what you're probably expecting fish in the display case may look like it was freshly
filled but grocery stores will often write previously frozen on the labels and tiny font
which understandably flies under the radar of most grocery store shoppers put the mail on there
knowing that the fish is frozen you're probably better off buying it from the frozen food aisle
instead of picking it up from behind the counter as you'll be getting the same product for a much
lower price the same principle applies to the deli counter though you are paying for the deli
worker to slice your ham and cheese for you there won't be much of a difference in the
quality of the stuff you find at the deli compared to what's stocked on the shelves
the same goes for those fresh pizzas you see at the deli which are oftentimes store brand frozen
pizzas that have been heated up in the oven and served for twice the price of what you can get
in the frozen food aisle if you're looking to get the best price on fish lunch meat or cheese
you'll more often than not find the best deal in pre-packaged formats not behind the counter
