Your post has obviously "spilled the beans" about one of the best-kept secrets of architects and designers. Psychological tricks used as subtle weapons to lure more clients and customers have been incorporated not only in the design industry but also in other fields like marketing, sales, food, fashion, etc. since time immemorial. In your experience, which part of the supermarket or grocery store would be the most tempting for you to buy from and why?

Oops. I spoiled it. I think a lot of people already knew this. That is why we need to go to the stores with a list. I agree that psychology has been cleverly applied to each industry to leverage business.

From grocery stores, I was tempted more on the discounted items at the entrance. Often, I end up buying not on my usual grocery list (which I spend more than needed). Also, the food stalls at the entrance. The smell is really inviting. That is why I do groceries after lunch or breakfast so that I am full and will not be tempted. !PIZZA

I agree with what Erne said. There's a lot of concept planning and thought processes that go into triggering the psychological impulses of consumers in retail design. IKEA is a great example for me of a difficult place to leave empty-handed. If I don't buy any home accessories, you'd probably find me in the cafeteria enjoying Swedish meatballs or their breakfast lol.
