Yes, the kid did make a decision. He could have decided to buy the Coke anyway. Just because, in the absence of coercion, you tend to make decisions based on your personal preferences doesn't mean you can't still choose differently. It's just that... why would you?


Not to mention research more or less shows we DON'T always make the same descision under nerarly identical circumstances.

I mean, if you eat at the same restraunt weekly, you don't order the same food every week do you?

Sometimes you just want something different.

Why?  There really isn't a proper reason behaviorly for this to be so.
