Question

A local grocery store has decided to charge customers for bags. Which TWO statements describe how customers will MOST LIKELY respond to this change?
A. Customers will buy more goods in bulk.
B. Customers will purchase more goods.
C. Customers will visit the store more often.
D. Customers will shop at other grocery stores.
E. Customers will bring reusable bags to the store.
F. Customers will exclusively use grocery delivery services.

Answer 1

In this scenario, option C and D are the most likely response of the customers.

When a grocery store charges customer for bags, customers will definitely move to other grocery stores who don't charge for the bags, or they will bring the reusable bags from home to collect their groceries.

Other options are less likely to be responded by the customers. Because if they buy goods in bulk, they will need more bags and have to pay for them eventually.

Answer 2

Answer:

D. Customers will shop at other grocery stores.

E. Customers will bring reusable bags to the store.

Among the given options only the two choices above are most likely:

When the local grocery store decides to charge for bags, most of the people might prefer to carry reusable bags to carry their groceries.  

However, the grocery store’s decision to charge for bags might not go too well with some customers, who in turn, might decide to shop at other grocery stores that do not charge for bags.
