How does this work? Do people not already know what they're going to buy before going into the store? Does nobody make a list?!?!

I made a list. It's at home. I should have made a list of things to take to the store so I could put the list on the list.

You never had situation when you saw something new and thought to try it?

If you never do that, then you are in very small minority. I do use shopping list, but still might occasionally get something more than what was on the list.

This is how stores could influence that through strategic product placement.

Generally the only time I do that is if the thing I like is out of stock so I have to look for a replacement. Most of what I eat is cooked at home though, so I'm just buying ingredients.
