21 Most Common Grocery Store Mistakes
16. Neglecting Store Brands
We humans are a funny bunch. Sometimes we get fooled by things that are so obviously ridiculous and should not be able to fool us. For instance, generic store brands. All major store chains have them. In most cases, we decide against them based only on the fact that they are generic store brands.
More often than not, these will be the exact same products as the more popular brands, far more affordable and yet we will avoid them. Why? Is it the less attractive packaging? Is it the fact that they are not as advertised as brand names?
When you stop and think about it, you are being a fool. You are not getting a superior product. You are paying extra buck for packaging and a fancy commercial on TV. Next time you go to a grocery store, stop and spend a minute or two thinking about this.
