They say you should never drive on E, and never shop for groceries on E. (That’s EMPTY of course . . . not Ecstasy . . . although the same goes for that.)
New data shows that grocery shopping on an empty stomach costs you an extra $26 per trip, on average.
From personal experience that seems LOW . . . when I’m hungry, I go from thinking, “I need to stick to the list” to “Well, the list was just a starting point.”
76% of people agree that they’re more likely to spend more if they shop while hungry, and about 60% say they’re also likely to buy more UNHEALTHY foods.
The research also found that the average person makes two grocery runs per week, and budgets $162 for their haul. Although that’s vague, because they don’t break down how that may change depending on the size of the household.
