Small-Scale Question Sunday for December 17, 2023

Do you have a dumb question that you're kind of embarrassed to ask in the main thread? Is there something you're just not sure about?

This is your opportunity to ask questions. No question too simple or too silly.

Culture war topics are accepted, and proposals for a better intro post are appreciated.

I would guess that many people don't really just think it through that much - if they want, say, cornflakes, they'll just stop at the cornflake shelf, extend their hand and take something, which is usually more expensive than if they just crouched down to take a cheaper product (usually stocked at a lower shelf).

I've noticed that once I started ordering regularly groceries online with home delivery it's led to me to select more store-brand stuff, since it's easier to just sort by unit price or something.
