Question: Have you ever regretted buying a certain product?

Sample Answer (The AREA technique):

Answer: Yes, I have regretted buying a certain product before.

Reason: Sometimes, products do not meet our expectations, or we realize that we do not actually need them. It can be frustrating to spend money on something that we end up not using or being disappointed in.

Example: For instance, I once bought a kitchen gadget that was marketed as a time-saving tool, but it turned out to be cumbersome and difficult to use. I ended up using it only once or twice and regretted the purchase.

Alternative: Some people might also regret buying products that are low quality or that do not last long, such as cheap clothes or electronics.
