Appealing to the people who bought bestsellers like the
Lucky Shopping Manual or Don’t Go to the Cosmetics Counter
Without Me, this witty guide will teach you how to
recognize deceptive marketing tactics and shop wisely—be it
at the mall, the grocery, the drugstore, or even at an
electronics superstore. Whether you are shopping for
lipstick or lawn mowers, you’ll learn exactly what to look
for before you buy. Including plenty of entertaining
sidebars and tips from the likes of Jamie Oliver (on food)
and Donatella Versace (on fashion), The Shopping Bags is
the perfect accompaniment to any shopping trip. Did you know:
o Your expensive designer lipstick may have been made at
the same factory as a more affordable drugstore brand?
o Words like "dermatologist approved" and "noncomedogenic"
are not regulated— manufacturers can use them any way they
want.
