• Often people buy things they need at home on the day of Dhanteras to fulfill the tradition as this will be economical and religious but mythology may not agree with this ideology.

• You should not buy glass items as they are considered symbols of Rahu and can bring bad luck to a person. Instead, you should buy something made of gold or silver which are considered to be the auspicious metals for the occasion.
• You should not purchase any sharp objects as it is believed that bringing them into the house creates Vaastu defects, which is not good for your family.
