The tricks usually start befre yu walk in. Outside the supermarket entrance, anybdy wh walks past can smell warm, fresh bread. That makes us hungry and ready t buy lts f fd, nt just bread.
Nw yu’re inside and, f curse, a small basket wuld be fine, but all they have are trlleys. And f curse the prblem with a trlley is that it lks sad and lnely with just ne r tw prducts inside. S we may fill it with smething. In fact, supermarket trlleys are actually getting bigger s that we buy mre.
Of curse, many peple shp in supermarkets because they think everything is cheaper than in ther shps. S supermarkets ffer very cheap prices n sme things but then have higher prices fr ther prducts. One new trick is t put red stickers n prducts. Custmers usually cnnect red stickers with lwer prices s the red stickers is easy t be nticed, even when there is n reductin! Interestingly, this trick appears t wrk mre with men than with wmen.
There is a stry behind the psitin f everything in the supermarket. Fr example, custmers ften g nly t buy milk. S they put it right at the back, frcing yu t g past hundreds f shelves full f ther prducts. The psitin f prducts n each shelf is als imprtant. The mst expensive prducts are usually at eye-level s yu see these immediately. The exceptin is anything that children might like. These prducts are n lwer shelves s that kids see them.
Apart frm what yu see and smell in a supermarket, what abut what yu listen t In mst supermarkets they have sft, slw music. It’s s relaxing that yu slw dwn and spend mre time (and mney) in the stre. Yu als mve mre slwly when the supermarket is busy. Experts suggest it’s better t shp when it’s quieter, n a Mnday r a Tuesday fr example. And be careful with queues at the checkuts. These are smetimes deliberate(故意), t make yu buy smething frm the checkut shelves while yu wait.
S, next time yu g int yur lcal supermarket, remember these tricks and see if yu can cme with just the things yu went fr.

Answer the questins.
Black Friday
Thanksgiving is always n a Thursday. The day after it has been knwn as Black Friday. It is the start f the hliday shpping seasn, and it has been the busiest shpping day f the year in the US since 2005.
Mst stres ffer big sales n Black Friday. They pen their drs quite early in the mrning. They try t attract shppers with big discunts (打折). Sme items (商品)like TVs and clths are much cheaper than usual. Stres may even lse mney n these items. They hpe that shppers will buy gifts fr ther peple while they are in the stre.
Black Friday is a great time t g shpping. Hwever, there are prblem. The biggest ne is that there are nt enugh lw-priced items. Each stre may nly have a few. These items are in great need, s peple stand in lng lines t get them. They may wait three t fur hurs befre a stre pens. They may be hping t get a lw price n a TV r cmputer, but nt everybdy can get ne. Sme peple leave, disappinted.
The situatin makes peple wrried. Sme Black Friday events have been crazy. There have been fights ver tys amng shppers. Sme wrkers have even been hurt by large crwds. But mst Black Friday events are safe and fun. Still, if yu plan t g, yu will expect large crwds and a bit f pushing.
S where des the name “Black Friday” cme frm? It was first used in Philadelphia in the 1950s. The plice called this day Black Friday because f the heavy traffic it caused. In the 1960s, stres tried t rename the day “Big Friday”. It did nt stick. The name “Black Friday” cntinued t spread acrss the cuntry. It seems that it is here t stay.
Nw peple all ver the cuntry take part in Black Friday events. It is even spreading t ther parts f the wrld. Stres have held Black Friday events in the UK, Australia, and Brazil since 2012. In Mexic, stres ffer a weekend f discunts every year. They call it “El Buen Fin”, which means “the gd weekend” in Spanish. I guess peple everywhere like t buy things n sale.
74. When is Black Friday?
75. Stres can get much mney frm all the times n Black Friday, can’t they?
76. What causes the biggest prblem n Black Friday?
