It seemed really surreal to me so I asked about it, apparently they have hours for people on the spectrum to make it more comfortable for them. As far as I know, I’m not on the spectrum but this environment was soooooo calming. It was like being at a spa. Is this not something everyone enjoys or should I consider getting checked out for autism??

    It seems kinda counterintuitive to me from a business standpoint too. I feel like if people are in a better mood and relaxed, they would be more willing to buy more stuff? Or does the constant anxiety pressure people into buying more? I unno?

      Yeah, if I ever catch a calm hour in the store, I’ll actually look through the aisles and check out products I wouldn’t normally buy. If the store is busy, I grab the usual and flee as quickly as possible.
