Shop Till You Drop!

By Andrew Murley

Our society today is all about buying. If you don’t have the latest product you are seen as balled up or not up-to-date. We live in a consumer culture, which is a culture that views the consumption of large quantities of goods as beneficial to the economy and a source of personal happiness. Companies used this to try to get you to buy their product. For example, Listerine’s message is if you don’t use our product, you will be an outcast and unattractive from your halitosis, which is only a fancy term for bad breath. Another way people sell products is to ease your daily life. George Washington Carver, for example, sells multiple products derived from peanuts and potatoes. Some of them are face powder, printer’s ink, and soap from peanuts and flour, shoe polish, and candy, from potatoes. Clarence Birdseye created a way to flash-freeze food and Charles Stride invented the pop-up toaster because he was sick of his bread being burned. Advertisements help to sell these products so “eagerly wanted” by the American public. These new advertisements create a demand for new products and no longer tell you why the product was or why it was good, it targets your desires and behaviors so that you want it badly. Businesses do this by using psychologists to design the commercials to be “needed” by the listener. Businesses now change their styles frequently and introduce goods that introduce goods that last a long time. Some good examples are cars, household appliances, or furniture. Advertisements and businesses worked together to convince people to stay up to date or buying the latest item. In society, if you buy a new product, even if it’s unnecessary, you will be considered prestigious. People can’t afford some of those products and are still able to buy them, all because of credit and installment buying. People used this money to pay for more expensive upgrades to products like upgrading to a washing machine from a washboard or to an electric shaver to a razor. Credit is buying something with money borrowed from the bank, and paying it off later over time. Only a few years ago it was considered shameful to take out a loan to buy consumer goods, now it’s considered old fashioned. Installment buying is when the buyer makes a down payment on the product and the seller loans the remainder of the money to help pay for the product. The buyer then makes monthly payments on the product with monthly installments and if they buyer stops paying, the seller can reclaim the item. Nowadays, 15% of all retail sales in America are on installment buying. Three out of every four radios and six out of every ten cars are bought with installment buying. People think that it will stay berries in the U.S.
