Tip 75: Don't go grocery shopping hungry
This is a hard tip for me to follow, since I am usually
hungry. Pretty much the only time I
could go shopping when not hungry is on Thanksgiving!
When you shop hungry, you are more likely to pick up junk
food and expensive items. Your will
power and ability to make good decisions is impaired when you are hungry. Your reptile brain will take over, and you
may end up with cream horns and barbeque potato chips in your cart instead of
the healthy items you really want to get.
Even a snack or small meal before shopping can help you
avoid trouble at the grocery store. If
you want something quick and cheap, a banana can provide a lot of nutrition and
make you feel full for about 25 cents.
