Buffet Eating and Shopping
Mar 30th 2013greenbucksMoney Watch
What does buffet eating and shopping have in common? If you are to eat in a buffet style restaurant, you know, those all-you-can-eat binges that you have been invited to go to or you are paying for, you have to remember a few “rules” as as not to get sick after:
- If you are going to a lunch buffet, better have a little breakfast so that you don’t feel starved when you get there. Just like shopping, do not shop with an empty stomach nor start with a full one.
- Make sure you are not in a rush because buffets are best enjoyed slowly, like when you go through musical instruments for sale, taking your time to pick what you think best suits you
- Do not drink a lot of those artificially sweet drinks, better to have water (not ice cold water) and a cup or two or warm tea
- Sample a little from each food offerings
- Do a walk-through, looking at what the food offerings are, much like what you do at the clothes and shoes on display
- When you feel full, stop eating. In shopping, when you know you got what you wanted, stop. If you don’t you may have to pay for more than you bargained for.
- Save space, in your stomach and in your budget, for things may come up unexpectedly.
