Limited Problem-Solving Approach: Buying Running Shoes
Let's imagine you recently decided to buy a new pair of running shoes. You've been using the same pair for a while, and they're starting to wear out. Here's how you might approach this purchase using a limited problem-solving approach:
- Recognize the Need: You recognize your current shoes are worn and need replacing.
- Limited Search: You already have a favorite brand of running shoes that you've been happy with in the past. You might browse their website or visit a familiar sporting goods store.
- Internal Criteria: You consider factors you already know are important, like brand preference, price range, and perhaps a specific type of shoe (running vs. cross-training).

- Evaluation and Choice: You compare a few options within your preferred brand that fit your price range and choose the one that seems most comfortable during a quick try-on in the store.
This scenario reflects a limited problem-solving approach because you rely on past experiences and familiarity with a trusted brand to make a quick decision. You don't delve into extensive research or explore entirely new options.
This approach is efficient for routine purchases where you have a good understanding of your needs and what works for you.
