Exactly. There’s nothing - almost nothing maybe - in larger stores or chains that is not designed to make you buy things. Even the way through, Ikea is obviously god emperor there but other follow closely.
It’s literally a single path with no branches (except for the shortcuts), Pinky.
And after you’ve been a couple times you learn the shortcuts to the meat balls pretty well.
It’s a spiritual maze, Brain. Are you done looking at the curtain rings yet?
Yeah, the one (and very likely only) time I went to IKEA, I bought almost nothing, because the whole store was just one big stampede, pressing through that singular path.
