never make unconscious purchase decisions. Consciously set a list of what you want, and follow it.

Yes, but how do you become aware of product you consciously want?

The unconscious is a myth anyway. Freud was a well-known Nazi, as anyone who’s not an unhinged right-winger already knows.

We’re making sense here guys. Let’s keep this discussion going. This is really coherent stuff.

By concatenating words describing concepts I'd like to have together. For example:

  • Foldable rechargeable lightweight flying exoskeleton
  • Cheap quiet fan that fits in my window while moving as much air as possible
  • Waterproof lightweight summer footwear
  • Non-addictive method to instantly fall asleep
  • Low sugar cheesecake
  • Small and cheap dynamometric drill adapter adjustable for 0 to 500Nm

...and so on. Just use your imagination.

Just not the unconscious parts of your imagination. Keep it on the straight and barrow here people.
