Hit-and-run shoppers act on impulse, without plan or purpose. They rush through miles of aisles, pause, pass on, back-track and buy. They pay too much and get too little. They waste time and squander energy. And a lot of their pointless purchases wind up in a dark closet with the rest of the family skeletons! Smarter, shrewder shoppers chart their shopping trips in advance in the advertising pages of this paper. They compare products, prices, values. They learn exactly where to find what they want.
