So you, I dunno, read the label where it shows the net weight, and compare it to other similar products nearby on the same shelf? Hell, most store shelf pricing has price per unit on it now, so you can compare prices pretty directly. Yeah, I get that it's not completely consistent where that's implemented, but it's far and away better than the days of "price gun sticker on item and that's it."
I certainly do not do that. Who has time to inspect every item they buy nowadays? Ridiculous.
Literally everyone has the time...
Uh, that's incorrect. When you're buying groceries for your family, getting household essentials, cleaning supplies, etc, you're going to be in and out because you have to get home to make dinner and get ready for work the next day.
Do you just blindly grab random objects of the shelf and pretend to be shocked when you get home or something?
Then get scammed I guess...it takes literal seconds to to read things.
The time it took you to reply on your addiction device could be spend actually being productive by ensuing you aren't being scammed at stores.
But when you're buying 40 things? Have other stuff to do? You are being incredibly naive
