Some people hate shopping. I don’t get that. I love cruising the aisles and racks looking for ‘Stuff’. My wife might even say that I’m addicted to ‘Stuff’. She uses a little more colorful language when describing some of my purchases but we’ll keep this PG.
There are two ways I shop, #1 With Intent, and #2 By Accident
#1 Shopping with Intent – this means that I have thought about it, researched the consumer reviews, price compared, and then made the concious decision to go out and get said item
#2 Shopping By Accident – This is what happens any time I shop with intent. You see a trip to the store opens my eyes to the world of all the other STUFF!! So many times I go to make my intentional purchase and come home with way more than I bargained for.
Some of my best purchases were made when shopping by accident. Like an octopus style head massager. Or a 2500 Lumen LED flash light. Or a plastic top that snaps onto a pop can to make it look like a bottle… that’s useful!
I’m really curious what are some of the best things you’ve found when shopping by accident?
Sometimes it feels good to have something new…
Shop Local!
