Do you think before you buy?

I wrote it  during my English class. Topic assigned: Should we buy something only because it advertised? Oh not all blogs are written so randomly coz of the study flow, this is the 1st which have been written this way! 

“Use this soap if you want to be cool” “Use this cream if you want fair skin instantly” These days such advertisements are found in TV, newspapers and where not! But are they true in what they insist?

Many a times we buy something not because it is useful but because it is trendy or has a luring advertisement and then when we go on complaining regarding good or service, the sellers tries to shift all the responsibility on to us-the consumers, which is totally wrong in its place. The sellers are equally responsible for the good or service they sell.

Injustice in case of consumer rights can surely be prevented once we shift from being mere target audience to the well-informed consumers. An appealing advertisement in any form of media can be a reason for us to check out the product but shouldn’t be the reason to buy it.

Therefore, when you go to the market, keep some things in mind which are needed to be done beforehand.

Always make sure you actually need the thing you are buying. Ask yourself if it is because of peer pressure and fear of being left out, and if the answer comes out to be yes, don’t buy it. Once you are clear with whether you actually need the thing or not, then while you choose from the variety available make sure you read the ingredients and check for labels and expiry dates and then definitely you can go for it fearlessly.

As part of our country’s development, we are very much needed to be aware consumers as it enhances the quality of goods and services of the nation

Hence, it is clear that one should always think before we buy and not buy something simply because it is advertised!
