I think that some of the stores that I surveyed were greedy. They wanted more money than what i payed for in Kelso Market. Thats why I just always go to Kelso because the people I know that wrk their give me discounts or free stuff!! =D so yeah thats what I thought of my surveys.

In my survey 7-eleven was the most expensive store. The liquor around the corner by my house was almost the same as the 99 cents store but where cheap. I think that some stores are more expensive that other because it depends what kind of quality the store gives to its customers.

well, i went to rite-aid, vons, and target, and all the prices were kind of similar, there were differences of like 10 cents or something like that. well, target was the most expensive, and i think since a lot of people go to target, target can get a good profit by raising the prices a little, thats what i think. i also think that rite-aid was the cheapest because not too many people go to that store too often.

I THINK THAT THE LIQUOR STORE HAS THE BEST PRICE,2 FOR 1. VONS WERE .69 AND 7-ELEVEN WERE .89. THE HIGHEST PRICE WAS 7-ELEVEN'S. THE SECOND HIGHEST WAS VONS. THE BEST PRICE IS THE LIQUOR STORE. I LEARNED THAT 7-ELEVEN CHARGES A LOT FOR THERE CANDY.

When I was surveying the stores, I found that the prices vary in every store. However, some do have the same prices, but not all of them. It seems like the bigger the store is the higher the price goes.In the little stores, the prices are cheaper.

well i think that some other stores are more because all places dont always have the same value but the other stores might be higher in price because mabe some stores need more money to get there buisness up and running and i really did'nt go anywhere yesterday so i really dont know what alot of prices and stuff like that so but some stores that i have went to before have good prices but other stores are trying to take all your money for something stupid.

The disparity in prices that i noticed were that some stores had the prices to expensive and to high in some stores the same candy is way cheaper!I think the stores were more expensive han others because they need more money.Or mabe they want more money.I don't know.

Well,I went to Vons, Target, and 7/11. I was looking at the skittles in vons and they were .89 cents, Target they were a 1.00, and 7/11 was .79 cents, so 7/11 was the cheapest.

When i surveyed the stores the prices in a grocery store cost more than at a Liquor store. I think the grocery store cost more beacuse more people go there than a liquor store.

THE DESPIRETY I NOTICED IS THAT IN THE 7 11 CANDY WAS MORE EXPENSIVE THAN LIQUOR STORES AND THAN GASOLINE STATIONS. I NOTICED THIS AND I THINK BECAUSE 7 11 IS A NATION WIDE STORE PRICES INCREASE BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE GO.

i noticed that stuff cost more at chevron.i think some stores sold stuff for more expensive than others because they now that people would buy it even if it cost alot because they need it. i guess stores that sell things for less dont want to lose customers so they sell stuff for good prices.

What i noticed about the stores and their prices is that they all have different prices on the stuff they sale. i think that some stores sale the things more expensive because they know that they are going to sale them because a lot of people buy off them.

In the three stores that i went to had different proces by 20-50 cents. They try to make a profit by making them a little pricier than other stores. weird things happen in the stores that you barely notice. Maybe the reasons that the chain stores make lower prices is because Lots and lots of people go buy some supplies in that store. and in the regular stores they tend to make things a little pricier. here's their trick though, they make one thing pricy, and another less expennsive than it originally costs. it balances out.

I think that the prices had a big difference but if you went a to a store like savons or ralph's it might cost more than getting it off the ice cream truck or from the liquor store because usally when you buy it from small company's like that it is usally their profit and not a profit for a big company.

11:32 AM

I think regular store cost more because its taxes in the store and not the liquor store, and becuase of the store's location.

11:33 AM  
Blogger Andrea Wallace said...

i think that some store are high because they dont want to pay for the store from their own pocket so they increase prices to pay the store bill. and dsome stores are a little cheap bcuz then people would often come to the store and it will be easier to pay thir store bill.

When I saw the different prices at the stores I wondered why the prices were different. Vons had the most expensive candy prices probably because it wasnt just a thrift store or a store at a gas station. It had groceries and school suppplies-- way more stuff than the other two stores had. The other two stores had candies worth fifty cents.

some were expencive and some were cheap like liquor stores were cheap and other stores like ralphs and like that were more expencive.i think maybe because they have alot of namebrand and stuff and the liquor stores dont.

At Ralphs the candy seemed more expensive. 7-11 was simular to ralphs and cost expensive, but the liquor store was cheaper than the other stores probly because ralphs and 7-11 are well known and are located everywhere and the liquor store by my house is only known to the people by my house and in my neighborhood.?.

i went to Mobil, Vons and 7/11. the most expensive snickers were at 7/11 and Vons was the lowest. at 7/11 they were 89 cents and vons they were 72 cents. at mobil they were 85 cents. so 7/11 is more expensive.

I noticed that the small bussnesses had candy that cost more because they may not have as many custmers as the big companies. I went to a gas station and a snicker was 1.00, local liquor store 89 cent, target was 69 cent.

dejon coleman said...
The liquor store had the cheapest stuff. Other main stores had more expensive prices. It is probably because more people go to main stores so they can raise up the price on things because they know people will buy them.

I think that the candies range in price because some stores have more money than others and the ones that have more money sell the candy for cheap and the ones that are little companies such as liqour store sell the candy from a dollar to seventy five cents.

I think some stores were more expensive because they were smaller business anjd they needed more money to liie succeed and bigger business still kind oif had higher price but its probably becaus e they want more of a profit.

When i was went to the stores to see th e prices there was many diffent prices. Vons had the cheapest, im guessing because it is a big business. Albertson had medium prices i think because its not a big store nor small store. Walgreens had the most expensive price because its not a well know store that has alot of itmes.

I found out that the bigger stores sell their candies for less, and that the small stores sell their candy for more. Because, the small stores don't sell as much as the big stores, so they need to make more money by selling their stuff(candy) for more.

while taking my survey i found out that at corner stores would sell a snickers for $0.50 & biger name-brand stores would sell it for like $1.19.... th@ is just stupid 2 me... i think th@ the corner stores sold there items for less because it is a smaller company and they do not need a lot of money like the bigger companies.

prioces are the same in some stores and in some they aren't but in basic sutff they are pretty much the same such as chips gun etc. i think that quick stores like sayin small ones that you can just go in ad out quickly are more expensive. then in the big sotres its a little cheaper.

i noticed that in every store the prices would stay the same or they would go higher.i think they were more expensive because they had smaller businesses so they cost more and cheaper because they have a big company.

well i think some stores were more expensive then others because the manager or owner is greedy and just want more money or maybe they need it because they have more employes so they need to pay them all equaly so umm yea

i noticed that most the prices were the same but the more expensive stores items were more money. i think thats because people will buy there stuff over a liquor store(well most people) becasue they have bought into the advertisement.they think it's better because they our tricked. so thats why i think that's why
some of the prices were higher.

Well I noticed that the major companies like Vons,Walgreens,Sav-on etc... had diferent prices than small stores such as the 99 cent store,Shop 4 Less, etc...I think this was, because the larger companies have a larger advantage and they use commercials to make people come and shop.

I think that certain stores have high prices because of the neighborhood they are in. If the store is in a up-scale neighborhood the prices will be high. If the storeis in the ghetto it most likely will have low price.

THE PRICES OF THE CANDY WERE DIFFERNT IN EVERY STORE.I WENT TO 7/11, KELSO, AND THE TARGET AND THE CHEAPEST WAS KELSO...AND THE HIGHEST WAS 7/11...TARGET WAS JUST IN THE MIDDLE.I THINK THAT 7/11 WAS THE MOST EXPENSIVE BECAUSE SINCE MANY PEOPLE GO THERE THEY GET MORE BUSINESS THAN OTHERS.BUT I BOUGHT CANDY FROM ALL OF THEM ANYWAYS EVEN THOUGH WE DIDNT HAVE TO...I MEAN COMEON WHOS GONNA GO TO THE STORE AND JUST STARE AT CANDY AND NOT BUY IT...NOT ME!

In my survey 7-eleven was the most expensive store. The liquor around the corner by my house was almost the same as the 99 cents store but where cheap. I think that some stores are more expensive that other because it depends what kind of quality the store gives to its customers.but also that the store with higher prices is because of the taxes and they cost more because of that sooyea

what i noticed in the prices was that some were more expensive than the others ,i wonder why,maybe because the retail prices have been inflated.and at the corner store they can charge lower prices because they can.as well as the grocery stoe can charge inflated prices because people want the things they want no matter how much it is

Alex said...
i noticed that some prices were different than others because of the store that i went 2. like 4 example cornuts at target were 75 cents and at the 99 cents store they were 50 cents.i also went to ralph's but they were the same prices

1:48 PM


Jon said...
I noticed that the prices were diferent. They are different because in some places people don't buy a lot somethings, so the prices go lower so people can buy them so the items don't go to waste. Also the prices are higher than other places because people buy them anyway because they always buy those things there and that they trust that place. The stores that have higher prices have the better products because they are more fresh.

When i was suveying the 3 diffrent stores and prices i notice that some stores the candy were cheap and the other was not cheap but a little pricy compared to the other store.

What disparity in prices did you notice while surveying the different stores? Why do you think that some stores were more expensive than others?
when i was surveying the stores most of it was in a good price but..actually albertson's is expensive i mean who would pay $1 for a bag of m&m's they crazy see thats why i go to ralphs....so i can get me a discount too.When i was surveying the stores i noticed that the small stores were a little more expensive. Some Candies were on sale so that must of effected the price. I think that the small business had to raise the cost of their snacks to make more money because not alot of people go there. In larger stores they know that if they lower prices more people would want to go there. I also noticed that

I noticed that some stores are more expensive than others. i think some stores are more expensive than others because they think they better. 7-ELEVEN is expensive cause it is a small store and people would actually pay almost a dollar 4 a candy.i go 2 7-eleven cause it close and i don't feel like going to a store that is far just to save 10 cents

the diffrerences in prices i saw in the stores were that some prices are cheap and some are expensive. like in some super markets like vons the skittles and m n ms are expensive if you are not a member.i think they do this so you could sign up for a vons or whatever club card. in other stores they are a little cheaper because probably they dont have a big bussness so they dont sell it as expensive as other super markets. other markets like ralphs or vons sell candy or chips expensive bicause they are a nation wide store so for them to keep maintaining them selves they have to sell items at high prices.

I noticed that when i go to the 99 cent store all the items are different prices and cheaper and im talking about the snackes. Then when i go to a normal store everything is exspensive but o well the companies are the ones that put the prices and think that there going to make alot of money.

The disparity in prices at the stores were just about 5-10 cents difference. At the CVS/PHARMACY the candy was $0.65. At Buy Low Market they were $0.55. At this little store by my house they were $0.60. I think that some stores were more expensive than the others because they want to make more profit. I also think because the store is maybe too small and they maybe dont get that much business.

the candy were pretty cheap in all stores i went to go survey but maaaaan the new tic tacs cost too much like a dollar or a dollar twenty five it costed a lot at best way it was 2.50

IN MY OPINION I THINK PPL SHOULD SHOP 4 GOODIES LIKE CANDY ND CHIPS ND STUFF LIKE DAT AT 7 ELEVEN BECAUSE EVERYTHING THEIR IS CHEAP AND THE STORE I WOULD LEAST RECCOMEND IS SAVON OR RAPLHS BECAUSE ITS MORE ESPENSIVE, BUT IF U REALLY WANT CHEAP STUFF GO 2 A MEXICAN CANDY STORE WHERE THE CANDY AND PRODUCTS ARE BETER CHEAPER AND WELL ITS REALLY UP 2 TOO WHERE U WANNA GO SHOP BUT THINK ABOUT THE RESULTS I GAVE U SO THAT U CAN HAVE AN IDEA OF WHERE U WANNA GO. *******************THINK ABOUT IT PEEPS

Well I noticed that some of the stores are not that cheap....I found differents prices....some of the candy were 2 for 1 or 1 for .99 cents.....So yea...the stores that need money put cheap prices so that the people could go the store... and buy more...

Blogger The 1 and only AnDrEa said...

When I did the survey what I seen I the prices was that the markets would have a sell like food 4 less they candy was 3 for a $1 and at the 99 cent store for one it was 75 cent. But some places had a good sale.

SOME STORES WERE MORE EXPENSIVE THAN OTHERS. LIKE IN 7-11 EVERYTHING WAS MORE EXPENSIVE EXCEPT FOR THE CRUNCH BAR IT WAS MORE EXPENSIVE AT RALPHS. THE CHEAPEST ONE WAS SAVEON EVERYTHING WAS MOSTLY 65 OR 69 CENTS EXCEPT FOR TWO ITEMS THAT WERE THE SLIM JIM AND THE RED VINES. AND THE SECOND CHEAPEST WAS RALPHS EVERYTHING WAS 99CENTS OR 65 OR 79 CENTS. AT 7-11 EVERYTHING WAS FROM 89CENTS TO $1.29 I THINK THAT 7-11 WAS MORE EXPENSIVE BECAUSE ITS MOSTLY A STORE WITH CANDIES AND GOODIES AND AT RALPHS THEY SOMETIMES HAVE REDUCED PRICES ESPECIALLY DURING HOLLOWEEN. AND SAVEON WAS THE CHEAPEST WELL YOU CAN TELL FROM THE NAME SAVE ON YOU SAVE ON EVERYTHING ESPECIALLY MEDICINE.

what i noticed in some stores were that some of the canides were more expensive than in other stores..i think its expensive because theyre probably not getting enough money and they boost up the prices a little bit more

Well wat i have learned about these different types of stores is that each store just matters on the brand like ralphs and vons was a very expensive store's and liquors like 7-11 are morecheap then others .

I noticed that stores have the same things but at different prices! Also, that there are different types of brands for foods, for exaple vegetable but they are also at different prices. i think that they have different prices depending on what store it is or where the stores location is at! Maybe the store got the products for higher prices and to earn a profit they sell it even more expensive!

Blogger **dora** said...

WELL WHAT I NOTICE WHILE DOING MY SURVEY WAS THAT EVERY STORE HAS A DIFFERENT PRICE.HOWEVER,IT SEEMS THAT BIGGER STORES HAVE MORE EXPENSIVE PRICES THAN OTHER LIKE LIQUOR STORES AND 99 CENT STORES. THE REASON WHY THIS IS SO MIGHT BE BECAUSE OF THE TYPE OF STORES THEY ARE IN AND QUALITY OF IT

Blogger cameron austin luvz me said...

When I was surveying the stores I found the cheapest prices at the 99 cent store.They had candy for like a dollar for three or four candy bars.At the other stores they were charging people like 65 cent through 70 cent for a candy bar.I think stores charge that much because they dont care and the 99 cent store cost so lest because they like to give people low prices.I believe that is why they are still in business.

i noticed that in some their are more expensive prices then others and in some they have lower prices. I think that some prices have more expensive prices then others because for example a lot of people go to target and i am asuming that they buy more candy in that store because Of the quantity od people . i think it all depends in what kind of store is it .♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦

I think that there were differences in prices because it depended on the store. For example I saw that in 7 eleven things costed higher. I think this because the store is more known and it isn’t that cheap. In the liquor stores and the 99 cent stores they cost lower because they are known for being cheaper and having lower prices on supplies. The differences in the prices weren’t that different. It was probably 25 or 10 cents apart.

The disparaties i saw were that all of the prices around the same price.They were all in the same range.I think that the prices are different in other stores because the size and how well people know the store.Like 99♣ a lot of people know the store so │t makes more money and can sell stuff for cheap.Like Wal-Mart.It's big.Has a lot of products sells cheap and still gets lots of money.
Like Rite-Aid ended up being the most expensive because i dont think that a lot of people would know of it because they dont have as many stores as 99♣ store.
