Why The Hell Is the Bread At The Store Always At The Far Side??
Wanna hear the answer? Of-course you do that’s why you popped into Genius Level, the koolest most daring and hella dope Online Magazine out there. And that promo sentence was sponsored by Genius Level. Anyway back to the topic at hand.
The answer?? Location Location Location! I’ve always wondered why this was the case as this was a pain to me as I had to walk all the way to the back of the store to get some bread. What the hell right? Why can’t they just conveniently place the bread by the entrance so I can grab, pay and leave right away to get on with my business. Well turns out Checkers, Pick n Pay, Shoprite, Spar and many others do not want you to just get there and leave, they want you to stay a little longer in the store, walk around and get to view all the interesting other stuff they have to offer.
Think of it this way, If a store was an online publication, why the hell would I place the conclusion of an article at the beginning?? That way I won’t get to keep you as a reader on my website long enough to get you to view the adverts that generate income for me based on how long someone stays on a page. A shopping store is much like an advert, the only way for you to get to view most of what they have on display is for them to place the most frequently purchased stuff at the far end so you get to walk around before you get what you want, then BOOM!! next thing you know you feel tempted to buy a chocolate, some soda, biscuits or you see the tissues and immediately remember that you running out of those at home and then proceed to grab some. Works like magic, in some instances you end up buying stuff yiu never knew you wanted and end up even forgetting the bread!! Where is the bread??????

This little genius trick can actually be used far beyond a convenience store, imagine you meet someone you like. Say this person is lusting for you and has been trying to get to your undies **code name have sex with you** … You got 2 options:
(1) You let them get what they want or;
(2) You take your ‘undies’ and place them right at the back of your ‘store’ so that when they walk in to try get to the ‘undies’ they then have to slow down and take notice of everything about you besides your undies, that is your personality traits, humor, and many other interesting things that they might find interesting about you so much that their initial plan changes and they then start taking a liking to ‘YOU’ and not the ‘short term’ pleasures they came in looking for…. Messed up example lol.
Anyway thanks for visiting Genius Level, the trick all along was to trick you into staying om the page for at least 3 minutes… Did it work? Oh well for what its worth I hope you learned something 🙂
