Geek on a Budget: Don't Shop When You're Hungry

We all know not to buy groceries on an empty stomach because you always end up buying more things than intended. The same thing goes for shopping in general, according to research from the University of Minnesota it shows that we spend at least 64% more on everything when we shop hungry.

With so many trying to stick to their budget, you don't want to spend money on things that are most likely impulse purchases. And make sure you ask yourself if you really need it before adding it to your cart. If you're trying to save money, remember that when you go shopping whether at the store or online.
