0:00 8:20

Lucas and Luna unpack how the decoy effect quietly shapes your purchasing decisions, from streaming subscriptions to coffee sizes. Using specific examples like movie theater pricing and software tiers, they reveal why we choose middle options that aren't actually the best value. This episode explores the psychology behind perceived trade-offs and offers practical ways to spot manipulation in everyday spending.
