In many supermarkets, the main entrance leads directly into the fruit and vegetable section. Psychologists say that when we start by buying food which is good for us, we are more likely to feel better about ourselves. That's why, later on, we often take a packet of biscuits as a reward for our earlier good behaviour. Supermarket managers also want customers to look at as many products as possible. That's why key products such as dairy, bread and meat are right at the back of the store.

What are the first products you see in most supermarkets?

When we see a sign offering a discount, we often take the product without thinking. It isn't unusual to see a sign saying: '2 packets only 2 JOD!' and, in our excitement, we grab the product without noticing that the price for one packet is actually only 1 JOD! The smell of fresh bread can make us more hungry and make the shop seem more attractive. Large supermarket trolleys make us think that we only have a few items and that we should buy more!

What is the trick in the sign '2 packets only 2 JOD!'?
