The useful bit
Make one strange list before the next ordinary purchase.
Jon’s post is less about one store than one excellent shopping habit: before buying an unglamorous household object, check the broad, boring categories sold by stores you already visit. The savings hide in the things nobody daydreams about buying.
Inspired by Jon’s “Things I bought that I wish I knew I could have gotten at Ikea for cheaper”.
