He turns around for one second and it's back to the first picture

Customers are drawn towards a nice looking display and will be willed by an unknown dark force to destroy it.

I made a video game about this phenomenon, sourced by many years of retail experience.

Those bins are huge. This must have taken hours.

This type of behavior is a coping mechanism when under high amounts of stress, ie controlling what they can rather than confronting the adversity of the unknown.

it can be therapeutic in moderation

How do you explain the next person who scrambles the bin?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 8 months ago

Well obviously supermarkets put the worst product in the easiest to reach place, so if you want the highest quality candy box or whatever's in there, you have to dig to the bottom.

What do you mean that doesn't make sense in this context?

The display looks better, and probably generates more sales in the "mixed up" state. The little hunt for discovery gets shoppers more emotionally invested. The mixed state looks fuller and more busy. Some staff member probably had to mix up all the candy initially.

Though it looks really satisfying to organize it.
