Gruen effect

Also known as "Gruen Transfer", this effect is a psychological phenomenon in retail where a confusing, enticing environment (like a mall) makes shoppers lose their original purpose, becoming overwhelmed and more likely to make unplanned impulse purchases.

Green Bay Effect 

This effect occurs when a female would usually be considered a 7 or 6 anywhere else in the world, but due to the sparseness of attractive females is seen as a 10. This can cause an inflated ego especially when a female moves from a more populated area.
She isn’t even that attractive it’s just the Green Bay Effect.
