All about buying
On the topic
Many of our purchasing transactions are automated and are not given much thought. For reasons of time, it is also hardly possible to plan every purchase down to the smallest detail.
Nevertheless, one should consciously examine one’s own buying behavior from time to time in order to question one’s own actions. Does it suit? And can I change something?
But that’s not the only way to save money. Knowing about consumer protection can also save me money in the event of a failed purchase.
