    But someone shopping in person is much more likely to try new things. When you shop online you’re just entering items into a search bar so you’re not going to branch out as much obviously. Wheras in person you see something and it catches your eye, there’s sale sign, a display or something and boom you get something new.

      My brother in christ, that’s how they sap your money and make you wonder why you’re broke. If you work retail, you’ll know all of the ways they try getting your money. Impulse sections around the check-out, impulse sections around the displays. Things sticking out for you to buy.

      Oh yes, you will indeed buy new things - but then you’re broke.

        Yes I’m aware how sale tactics work that wasn’t really the question of the topic though. Also me getting black grapes cuz I see a sign saying they’re a dollar cheaper than the red grapes I was planning to get isn’t making me go broke thank you.

      I politely disagree, because in my exp marketing and advertising window pop ups do show up online too so you get exposed to new things.

      But in general, I trust you to shop and grow at your own pace and curiosity.

      Ie Those who start shopping online, like Amazon, find way more variety vs those who stick to in person Stores.

      But hey, you do you. I just hope you cum super mega hard.
