In this modern age and high tech world, numerous business men have come up with all sorts of scheme to help sell their products or services. Some schemes not only help the business to sell but also benefit the consumer. I know one scheme that is widely used, greatly help the selling advantage of the products or services and most importantly, benefits the consumer. Don't be surprise that it’s so popular, it’s not only being implemented in the corporate world, but also in social life. It’s call, 'Try BeforeYou Buy’. If you still don't get how it’s used socially, try to relate it to a boy & girl situation.

It’s a rarity now, where you browse for some merchandise (partner) and think it works well, or it fits well and won't get broken any time soon. Then you proceed to the cashier (parents) and try to bargain for a price. When both are satisfied with the merchandise and price, then proceed to making a purchase (marriage). Well, I didn't say anything to suggest that it’s not being practice now. Maybe either it rarely happens these days or I need to consider mixing around with new group of friends. Either way, it’s happening more often now.

These days (in my point of view), I see shoppers browse for merchandise, but before they decide if it’s best for them, they unpack the merchandise and try if it fits. If it doesn't, then browse for a smaller, tighter fit or for some, bigger or loose fit. Some of them, won't buy merchandise which are already opened despite they themselves have opened some of the merchandise. This act of selfishness will result in some merchandise being left opened and in a case where the merchandise will not be sterilize anymore, it will get infected with all sorts of bacteria. Then, when some shoppers decided to buy those unpacked merchandise, they will get infected with all sorts of disease (STD).

Some shoppers love to poke the merchandise, some like to lick or suck the merchandise; there are some shoppers who even sleep with the merchandise. This may be odd but some shoppers managed to lick and suck the merchandise without even opening it. Amazing huh? It’s magic, no doubt.

Conclusion is, 'Try before you buy’ scheme is morally inappropriate when you implement it socially while living in a conservative surrounding. However, poking or tasting the merchandise without opening it is still a mystery though. You figure.

If you still don't get what I'm talking about, don't bother finding out or you'll regret finding out.
If you clearly get what I mean, consider repackaging yourself or get a new group of shoppers to hangout with. :p
If you're the magician who’s able to … (I don't want to repeat it again)… without opening…. *sticks out tongue*
