Because people are more likely to buy impulsively if they don’t see the price. I don’t go places like that because I don’t encourage manipulative bullshit.
I remember once at a diner with some friends I ordered pancakes and orange juice without looking at the menu, and was pissed when the orange juice was like $10. Now I always check.
Loads of people, for many reasons, feel uncomfortable when interacting with strangers, so the pressure of having to make a decision while not wanting to ask encourages the impulsivity.
Remember kids, roughly 95% of marketing is about fucking with your head when you’re next in line. the other 5% is about combating buyer’s remorse so that word of mouth stays positive.
