Dad worked for casino design And sales ..Casinos have no clocks anywhere to tell you its time to leave No windows to tell you its day or night Dark ceilings so you dont bother looking up Bright floors/carpet to keep you looking ahead Flashing moving lights to keep you happy And awake And a design to better get you lost Than know exactly where the exits are. Cashing out normally has a long gated rope line And 1 teller that is told to work slow...So you spend more coins waiting for the line to lessen...This floor plan Idea was sold to IKEA in the 80's And this is why you need painted lines on the floor And walk past 1000 items before finding what you need

I went to Ikea ONCE. It took me ages to get out because I wasn't allowed to go out the way I came in. I swore I'd never use the store again. This was many years ago and I've stuck to that pledge ever since that day. I wouldn't go into an Ikea store now even if everything were free.

I worked all positions of a grocery store for years. The set up, lighting, little things are trying to get you to buy more and more. Why is bread away from the milk? So you have to walk across the store and pick up things you don't need. I am glad that I worked there, even though it was long ago. I see any store for how they are truly set up.

You buy things with an ingredient list?!!! LOL. You have a long way to go.

[@StrawberryFieldsNIR]

Yes a good idea to really cut down on processed foods (it appears the US is bad for it, but UK and AU as well). You have to find the balance of diet that works for you. It could mean reducing carbs or higher protein (both work for me very well). It also depends on your age and activity level as well. For example, most men and women tend to lose the middle-aged weight gain by late 60s or 70s. For women, weight gain at or peri-menopause is common, and suck that up, it is to keep estrogen in fat stores, better in the long term (not talking about grossly overweight, just pudgy). But yes, at the end of the day, completely cut out soft drink ("soda"), limit fruit juice but do include it, at least a good quality one without loads of sugars or artificial sweeteners (those are bad as well).

I was just thinking the other day how 90% of what's in the store is carbohydrates. The day after I stuff my face with that trash, I'll wake up wearing it. I know this because I did it for over a decade. So many of these products are dressed up to appear healthy when they are in reality junk food. Even claims of "reduced sugar" are a red flag more than anything. They've taken sugar out and replaced it with various artificial sweeteners and fillers to restore the bulk. The fillers are no better and often worse than the sugar they took out! What a world.

[@lostfan5054]

So, you said a couple of things early on that are problematic. I spent 15 years working for Kroger (various depts and in store management). The fresh bread smell is not artificial. It's not "pumped in". It's the result of the bakery department baking the bread. Now, the reason the bakery uses par-baked bread instead of fully baked bread is because they want to be able to bake it so that the store will smell like fresh bread. But it's not pumped in. The rough flooring in the produce department has nothing to do with slowing people down so that they buy more product. The produce department has rough flooring because it's the most likely place to experience a slip and fall. The product sits unwrapped on tables, and it's pretty common for a grape or a lettuce leaf to fall onto the floor where somebody will slip on it. So in produce they use rough floors to reduce this problem. Grocery stores definitely do a lot of things to try to manipulate their customers. A lot of what you said is accurate. But you definitely got a couple of things wrong

[@Dilaudid281]

Almost 10 years in across multiple stores as a butcher and I can vouch that you're absolutely correct. The issues come with Walmarts and the like. Surprisingly, places like Sprouts and other fresh markets also come with the same issues as a Walmart. Sprouts does not cut the majority of their meats fresh and they do not grind fresh ground beef. It's all prepacked and dyed.

Also, all cattle is grass raised, some are 'finished' in feed lots on grain, some producers finish their cattle on grass. Grass finished takes longer to reach market weight depending on the breed, so it will be more expensive. Just buy good beef, I buy from the small producers sometimes, but mostly Costco.

[@jacobnyhart6862]

I worked for a major grocery chain for several years - and here's another tip. Learn the basic layout of the store so when you make your shopping list, you can order the items per the store's layout. That way you can beeline it through the store. Oftentimes, people meander (even with a list) because their list is not in order - which causes people to walk past items multiple times. They may have the willpower to skip it the first time, but on the 2nd or 3rd pass - they cave. This is especially important if you bring kids with you because they will nag every time they pass an item - and parents just give in to shut them up. Be smart when you are shopping. It not only helps your health - but it helps your finances.

I dont think people realize how overstimulating the whole experience is too, for everyone. Decision fatigue can be rather intense too. Once i saw a little video on YT from someone who was in prison for a considerable time. She was talking about how extremely overwhelmed she was trying to get deoderant. They are used to no alternative options. So when she was in a walmart, it was just mentally crippling. The whole experience is just WAY too much for the senses to handle. Our eyes are forced to take in WAY too much information and our brains arent used to doing this much processing. The whole experience is overbearing. Thats probably why we come back home entirely drained. Thats why i like delivery. I dont have to deal with all of it, which has removed a MAJOR stress from my life. Its so weird to "detox" from anything, because then we realize just how MUCH something is overbearing on our body, mind and spirit. Its also nice to avoid that cesspool of other peoples chaotic energy. Its all so draining.

B) How do you avoid being in a purchasing rut by not looking at other options? I get sick of buying the same stuff constantly, for YEARS on end, and want to try something else to salvage what remains of my sanity. Having a list doesnt address the issues i brought up in the OP.

Walmart takes previously frozen sockeye salmon and puts a mark down label over the words “previously frozen” when you cook it, since it thawed for days all the fluid full of nutrients are drained from the salmon and pool in the package and its like eating fishy tasting styrofoam.

Simple solution…. Grab ANOTHER package without the “mark-down” label, and check it out for all the needed info. Then, if “yes, this is good food for me, yes the Price Is Right, yes I WILL use it before it goes bad”, then and only then grab the “mark-down”. Ignore the “Front Label With Large Bold Print”, and meticulously read and understand the “Labels On The Back Where The Truth Resides” aka “Nutrition Values” and the all-important “Ingredients List”. These two are highly regulated by the FDA AND CPSC.

Watch out for price change at the registers from the price on the shelves. This is the reason why stores went to putting prices on the shelves instead of the items.

I work in a grocery store-the golden zone thing is so true. You can move something that is at eye level and sells really well to the bottom shelf and it’s like it disappears from view entirely. Taking things off the shelf to create scarcity is not a thing. People always think we hide things in the back- not true. We barely have enough labor to put things out on the shelf, let alone go back and remove them. Empty space is lost sales-it is never intentional. Also our short-staffed warehouse often bills us for things it never sends and again, our own lack of enough employees to take care of things means we often don’t notice and fix the problem right away so the space sits empty until we notice and adjust our balance on hand. If it’s empty we also might have it in the back somewhere but not enough eyes on things to keep tabs on what items need restocking. The most popular aisles in our store are the candy/chip aisle and cereal/coffee aisle. The whole “buy two get one” sale format is recently more popular-things rarely just go on sale for a straight price reduction…it’s buy two get one or buy five items in a sale grouping,get a dollar off each one,etc…people fall for every ploy too. So true that most of the grocery store’s stock is garbage food but people want it.

[@caroblue7988]

[@weatheronthe8s895]

I work at a grocery store, but my store is basic to the point that it doesn't have a lot of these "features". For example, you will only smell cookies if there are cookies actually baking or just baked. Same goes for chicken in the fryer. Our floor tile is all pretty much one color, except for a few that had to be replaced with a slightly different color because they were broken. Things like this my store is cost reduced to the point that you don't see these things. My city is quite small, so going all out on all of this stuff is just too expensive. Literally any grocery store can have placement though, so of course we do. We have endcaps, which I have a weird tendency to ignore, as well as displays and certain items getting certain locations. I personally find canned vegetables being directly across from pre packaged cookies is a very weird one in my store. My best advice is to learn your store. Knowing where most of the items you buy are will reduce your need to walk down aisles of items or even look at items in that section you have no intention of buying. Of course remodels and resets make this difficult, but it is best to know your store the best you can. I am not against bringing kids to the store, but trying to focus their attention on what you are there to buy is probably smart, like letting them read the grocery list for example. You will probably end up with a few not so great items along the way (especially with things like school bus shaped Little Debbie displays right next to the produce department), but it is better than a buggy full of junk.
