According to a new survey, even with the economic situation where it is, Americans are making MORE impulse buys during the pandemic than we were before.
In January, the average person was spending $155-a-month on impulse buys. In April, that jumped up to $183.
And there are two main reasons. One . . . we’re stocking up on stuff that’s hard to get or that we want to grab while it’s on sale. And two . . . online shopping is one of the big ways we’re coping and improving our mood.
The top five most common impulse buys are all pandemic must-haves: Cleaning supplies . . . hand sanitizer . . . toilet paper . . . hand soap . . . and canned food.
