Shopping malls have always been a joy for a shopaholic. Working women, housewives and even husbands spend hours at a shopping mall purchasing groceries and other ingredients. But, did you know shopping malls make a crazy deal with customers and they are all hidden.

For example: shoppers spend hours looking at expiry dates on a container or a food packet. It is believed that malls have the license to change the date making the customer believe there is more time for the product.

The other fact is, employees at shopping malls are crafty in management skills that they arrange products of a higher price at your eye level, making you want to buy the product and on the other hand making you believe that only that is available.

Products are always arranged in such a way that the customer can only see the expensive item to purchase. The cheaper products containing the same ingredients are hidden way behind on the shelves.

Expiry dates on items are always tampered. Employers at the shopping malls have the license to change dates if the product hasn't been sold after a period of time.

Those overcrowded food shelves are the most interesting. You will find the items placed in such a way that the fresh food is carefully arranged at the back, almost hidden and the nearly expired items are staring at one's face.

Did you know that the fancy shopping carts are loaded with E.Coli bacteria which can give you food poisoning?

One of the things shopping malls don't tell you about their fruits and vegetables is this. In the morning while arranging most supermarkets spray their fresh food with water. This is to enable the fruit to look fresh and weigh more.
