The Impulsive Buy

SPOTTED ON SHELVES – 11/12/2014

Here are some interesting new and limited edition products found on store shelves by us and your fellow readers. If you’ve tried any of the products, share your thoughts about them in the comments.

If it’s reserved for bakers, am I going to have to show an American Bakers Association, The Bread Bakers Guild of America, The International Dairy-Deli-Bakery Association, or Independent Bakers Association card in order to buy this? Or is “Baker’s Reserved” some marketing phrase to make a cream cheese stick seem more impressive than it really is? (Spotted by Erin at Harris Teeter.)

A Christmas-looking treat, but not Christmas-tasting treat. (Spotted by Erin at Target.)

Oh, sriracha! You flavor bandwagon! (Spotted by Dustin at Mariano’s Fresh Market.)

I’m going to prove to you all why you should be thankful I’m not in marketing and I don’t name products. I want to rename the Peppermint Velvet Premium Cookie Mix to PeppeREDmint Velvet Premium Cookies Mix. You’re welcome. (Spotted by Steve at Target.)

Thank you to all the photo contributors! If you’re out shopping and see an interesting new or limited edition product on the shelf, snap a picture of it, and send us an email (theimpulsivebuy@gmail.com) with where you found it and “Spotted” in the subject line.
