The Pre-Checkout Check-Up

Here is a tip, which can be useful while grocery shopping. I
call it the "two-minute break."

After we have filled up our carts with the products that we
want to buy, we do this two-minute break exercise. Before we
go to the sales counter, we go to a quiet corner of the
grocery store and go through each item that we have put in the
shopping cart. We take 5 to 10 seconds to analyze whether or
not we need each item right now. If the answer is no, then it
goes out of our shopping cart. This exercise only takes us a
maximum of two minutes and saves us from buying unnecessary
stuff.
