How often do you impulse purchase while billing at supermarkets?

Are you guilty? Have you made efforts to totally turn a blind eye to it?

I impulsively add to cart recommendations on checkout screen of blinkit etc.
Been ages since i went to an actual supermarket though.

Ah interesting! I can understand seeing the product physically can be sometimes tempting, but does it create the same level of impulse behaviour online too?

Please help me understand what do you get as cart recommendations at checkout on Blinkit (assuming this varies based on user behaviour) while a store is the same for every kind of customer.

Candy packs, munchies, rolling paper, napkin rolls, drinks etc.

True, either they are living alone/PG or order everything online.

I only go to the grocery and pulses section, also Idk but they keep the grocery stuff in the end and fast food in front just so that customers impulse buy stuff. I just put on a blind eye or go with asking the question do I really need it.

Have been following the same. I find most people ahead of me in queue adding something or the other during checkout but I never get the urge to do so. I used to feel weird about myself sometimes.

How do you determine which expenses need your attention ?

Someone recently told me not to spend time on expenses which are less than 1% of your total net worth.

Discounts or Deceptive Pricing ?

I have been following new-age Consumer Electronics brands for a while now. On average, every SKU screams "45% off!" while established players barely have any. Sure, it lures budget-conscious tech people, but at what cost? What baffles me...
