Russians complained about disappointing purchases at sales

Russians most often regret spontaneous purchases of clothes and shoes at sales, according to the results of a study by Humopeu, which I reviewed on November 13."Газета.Ru ".

Every third unsuccessful purchase is made on the spur of the moment, despite the growing rationalization of shopping: 40% of respondents compare prices on different sites, and 27% make a strict shopping list.

"For half of Russians, this is still a good way to save money. However, for a third of the respondents, sales have already turned into a gambling game with its own stakes and risks," said Irina Polyakova, Head of Corporate Customer Support at HUMOPEU.

She added that Russians consider smartphones, headphones, large household appliances and winter clothes to be the most successful purchases, where the benefits are calculated in advance.
