Supermarket Shopping
Description
Shopping used to be such a time-consuming process.buying meat at the butcher's, vegetables at the market, flowers at the florist's. But today's supermarket is truly a one-stop-show for many consumer needs. We discover shopping techniques to help shop smarter and faster, like.choosing the best time to shop.and whether to use coupons, buy the store brands, or opt for the generic ones. We look at how stores are organized...research comparison shopping...and find out how product placement influences what we buy and how much we spend. We also explore other shopping choices including warehouse stores, health food stores, specialty stores, and farmers' markets. Shopping may be a whole lot more convenient, but wise consumers know that making good choices means having all the facts.
