When I saw your Superstition post, I thought you'd explain how to use superstition to intrigue retail customers, not try to prove how stressful retailing is. We know it's stressful.
Some claim using superstition to attract & hold customers is a manipulative trick. Superstition doesn't force anybody to buy anything, it makes things more interesting for customers even if they're not sure why. That's why it's so intriguing. There's some mystery. They think they know what may happen, yet they experience something else.
I don't mean bait and switch because superstition in retail isn't a promise or offer. It's a bit of a fun hint.
