Sometimes it is self-organization and planning. Before going to the store, make a list of things that are planning to buy, under any circumstances, do not go beyond it. This applies to foods. If the method does not work, give up long lists and buy 1 hike for 4-5 items, so you reduce the risk of too much to take.

Do not go to the store in a bad mood.
