HOUSTON HOME AND FOOD NOTES
BY HELEN B. SASSER
Home Demonstration Agent
Are you a perennial bargain
hunter? If so, how many times
have you reaped disappointment
rather than satisfaction from your
purchases? From advertisements
that promise unbelievable dis
counts, terrific savings or almost
give-away prices it would seem
that bargains are to be had any
day of the week. They all sound
great but what do they really
mean?
A questioning attitude on your
part when you go “sale” shopping
will help you develop into a smart
shopper. Determine what the
mark-down price is related to.
Even completely honest sales
mark-downs may not be bargains
in that the sale price may be
greater than another store’s regu
lar price. Mark-up percentages on
merchandise vary from store to
store and within stores on differ
ent goods. Ten per cent off on an
item that has a 25 per cent mark
up is a greater actual saving than
a 30 per cent reduction on an
item with a 17 per cent mark-up.
Look for specific information
that will allow you to do compara
tive shopping. Sometimes there
are key words in an ad that indi
cate limited sales or that merchan
dise other than regular stock has
been brought in for sale. Check
the merchandise for quality char
acteristics, take nothing for grant
ed and ask questions when you
shop.
Off-season buying is a good prac

tice for standardized items. If you
have looked ahead at a need for
replenishing such items as sheets
and other linens you may affect
a real savings in buying during a
sales promotion.
Knowing your product is your
best protection against the pit
falls of sale buying. You have to
be able to recognize quality if you
expect to buy quality. Decide what
characteristics you desire in a pro
duct and look for these when you
shop. Don’t settle for less unless
you are consciously willing to low
er your standard.
There are some “don’ts” to ob
serve that will increase your pros
pects of buying a bargain. Don’t
fall for bait-ads. Their objective
is to get you into the store and to
up-grade your buying once you are
there. Don’t mistake loss-leader
items for bait-ads. Good buys may
be had from loss-leader merchan
dise which is priced near cost with
the hope that you will buy other
items while shopping for the real
bargain.
Don’t be too hasty in buying new
innovations. If you can wait
awhile, the field will be more com
petitive and prices will be better.
Keep in mind that it pays to com
pare pricey and that no item is a
bargain if you don’t need it.
FOOD OR QUACKERY
Responsible citizens must work
to help prevent the spread of nu
trition nonsense if the menace of
the quacks to public health is to
be stopped.
The editors of magazines and
newspapers and the producers of
television and radio programs can
do much to control misinformation
which is being spread throughout
the country. The most important
control, however, is for the pub
lic to know the facts.
There are some important facts
that each of us must remember if
food faddism is to be controlled!
Food is one of the basic needs
of good health. Food provides the
necessary materials for body
growth and repair. Vitamins and
minerals are important but with
out carbohydrates, fats, proteins,
water and oxygen in the proper
amounts they can do little to main
tain health.
A good diet is not a quarantee
that one will never be sick. Food
may help one to have longer life
but cannot assure it. Food is ne
cessary but it cannot work mira
cles and the person who says a
food or a tablet containing special
ingredients taken from food will
cure all your aches and pains is
misrepresenting the truth.
Here are some tell-tale signs for
recognizing a quack or food fad
dist. He implies that his product
has a “secret” formula and will
cure every disease. He uses testi
monials from people you’ve never
heard of to promote his product.
He claims the medical profession
is behind the times and afraid to
accept his discovery and he im
plies that all processed foods are
harmful.
If you hear or read an advertise
ment which makes any of the
above claims, beware! Get busy
and learn the true facts before
you buy!
