¿Alguien más fan del costco? #costco #marketingdigital #campañademarketing

In this Spanish commentary, Stephanie Comonfort explains how Costco uses classic psychological marketing tricks to influence shoppers the moment they walk through the doors. She notes that the store prominently displays ultra‑expensive items—high‑end TVs, Apple products, refrigerators, even jewelry—right at the entrance. This creates an anchoring effect, making subsequent, more modest purchases (air fryers, cookware, bulk toilet paper) feel cheap by comparison. Comonfort argues that shoppers feel less guilty buying these lower‑priced items because they have already ‘saved’ themselves from the temptation of the pricey displays. She illustrates the tactic with personal anecdotes of adding items to the cart while mentally comparing them to the $4,000 TV she passed, highlighting how the contrast influences spending behavior.
