Locomotive goods
When you come to a store to buy a popular product, it’s usually located at the edge of a shelf — and it’s not for nothing. This locomotive product, as marketers call it, draws in your attention among neighboring goods you’d look at anyway. For example, it happens when you’re searching for your favorite shampoo on a seemingly endless shelf.
Usually, when there are no locomotive goods left on the shelf, the products located next to it might be standing idle for weeks. That’s why supermarket workers carefully check if there are empty gaps on shelves. They keep moving the products and putting them in the right order so that you get lost in such a wide array of choices and stay in the shop for longer.

Mostly old news here; not a problem for seasoned shoppers.
One thing I'd disagree with, especially having worked in farming and selling at farmers markets: spraying produce with water keeps it from drying out. I keep lettuce in a bowl of water like a houseplant, and it stays fresh, solid, and crisp for a month, if somehow I have not eaten it. For the same reason, I drop other veggies in a bowl of water for a few hours before using them. Very often, we think veggies are spoiled, when in fact they're just dehydrated. Amazing sometimes how quickly and thoroughly they come back to life.

Police, For lettuce's, celery, or Autumn/ cold growing leafy vegetables, yes! But for other vegetables? NO.
As a very seasoned shopper, I know I'm more fair in stating that what you've said doesn't always apply. Frankly? That's unfair information to hand down to our younger members, and I refuse to allow you to proclaim your "facts", when in fact? Different produce and foods preservations depend on their climate and methods.
Lettuce, celery,broccoli, cauliflower, and kale react very well if dehydrated and placed in a cold water bath for an hour. Carrots, tomatoes, potatoes, onions, cucumbers, all melons, and any fragile berries? No.
As a VERY well seasoned shopper and farmer, spraying water lends to the decay and molding of all vegetables depending on the temperatures at which they're stored after harvest.
ANY person reading this comment? DO NOT WASH YOUR VEGETABLES OR FRUITS UNTIL YOU'RE READY TO EAT THEM. Washing after picking adds extra moisture to the product and then they're stuffed in a package which invites mold and decay. Lastly? Organic isn't best. Be wise about your local grocer. Most importantly? ALWAYS, WASH YOUR PRODUCE IN FRESH WATER BEFORE EATING!
