Why are the bigger stores so popular then? I actually like choosing the product that I think has the best price/quality ratio. I compare prices per unit of weight and everything. In the end I'm satisfied that I made a seemingly rational choice. When there's only one choice I can't help but feel it must be overpriced since there's nothing else to compare it to.

- k__ 11y agoMaybe people just think it's better to have more options? Also, I once read, that more options aren't necessarily bad. For example if you can buy a car as diesel or petrol and red or white, but the color doesn't affect the fuel type, it's okay. But if you could buy a car as diesel or petrol but only the petrol in red or white and the diesel just in white (or a completely different color) this leads to stress, because one decision lets you miss on the other options.
