Shopping
Waiting periods, price timing, and buying secondhand.
17
Make checkout slightly harder
Saved cards and one-tap checkout remove the pause. Putting a step back restores it.

Look secondhand first
Furniture, kids' gear, tools, and party clothes are often cheaper used, if you compare the real price.
