Usually when it comes to some these juice products I see in the supermarket one dollar is a regular sale price and the normal price seems to be about $1.66. Since the sale does happen very frequently it’s wise to stock up only when it is on sale. So while walking through the supermarket today it was indeed interesting to see all the empty boxes. Must be a sale I guess you can say and indeed there was.
It just happens that the juices were on sale. Except this time it was on sale for 98 cents instead of $1. So definitely cheaper. It was kind of interesting to think about though as it literally is just a two cents savings. Yet as you can see here people were buying it as if they were saving over $1000 or so. Would you go to this extreme to stock up if the saving is technically the cheapest you have seen where at the same time the amount is actually very small?
For myself I probably would if it was something that I actually bought and consumed all the time. Sure the savings itself isn’t large but it’s generally more about developing the habit of stocking up when there is a good deal overall. It’s important that you will actually use everything up before an expiry date too. If this was saving two cents on like a light-bulb that lasts for months that wouldn’t seem as wise because by the time you need to replace it you could have probably invested that money into something else to gain more.
