2. What are products of things that we would reconsider buying if prices rise?

Discuss.

1. inelastic goods such as ciggies, prescriptions, maybe some luxury goods that are purchased because they are expensive such as designer clothes

2. Goods that are easily substituted like coke vs pepsi, butter or margarine

Didn't you buy the course text book!

answer to what we would buy not matter the price:

baby diapers, tampons, bread, milk, gas, socks & underwear, haircuts, toilet paper, cereal (and for some cigarettes) .

what we would reconsider:

booze, and name brands of anything (store brands instead).

 

[Sureshot324]

There's a lot of things i would scale back if it cost more. Eg get a cheaper car, less cable tv channels, cheaper video card, etc.
