Will buy something unwanted when you go shopping?

When I am in the supermarket, I like to look at all products. Therefore, sometimes I will buy something unnecessary. As when I find something interested, I'll put it into the shopping cart. When I pay the bills, I found I already bought a lot:)

I try to write a shopping lsit before i go shopping, not only to help me remember what i need but to remind myself of what i don't need (ie things that aren't on the lsit1). However i will inevitably see some items on offer etc, and be tempted to buy them! I try not to but often do.

It's good to have a shopping list, but I still buy some unwanted products anyway:)

Yes, it's not easy for me to control what I'm going to buy:)

Oh yes, if you talk about supermarket shopping for food. If I go there empty stomach, then I would almost buy everything I see and looks delicious to me. So now I just go whenever I have a full stomach. Then I won't have that hungry nerve urging me to buy more stuff than I need. I would be more calm and relaxed, and I would take my time in deciding what I need best and won't buy so many "unwanted" things.

Usually I buy the foods from the supermarket but eat it at home. If I don't eat it right away, I will put it into the freezer.

u sound like me. i tend to do that too. buying things which i don't really need in the first place. i'm trying to not do that anymore, only buy the things which i really really need, because i'm so broke now. but the thing is, i want to buy like practically everything! lol. it's so hard to resist the temptation to shop..
