    | I always shopped at Morrisons even after the revamp. The fresh prepared fruit had gone up from £1 to £1.25 and the ‘restaurant pizzas’ were 3 for £2: 50 the week before, but are now 3 for £ 3.00 so I went to Tesco and was surprised at the offers and they gave me £12 voucher off my next shop, when I spend £60. So, I am not going to shop at Morrisons.Again, a recent poll by Sun City “Morri-Poll” reveals the supermarket’s customers are fed up with posh displays such as “misty” exotic vegetables and delis. As one customer, who shopped in Morrisons since 1965 has stopped shopping in the supermarket, while a staff claimed that “I’ve worked for Morrisons for the last six years and the last 16 months have been the worst.” Such type of comments about a supermarket is particularly dangerous, given a study conducted in 1999 by customer service research firm TARP shows that: * One unhappy customer tells ten people about their experience. Each of these ten people tells another five people, meaning up to 50 people get to know of one person's poor experience with a firm. * central-e-commerce unfolds that a dissatisfied consumer will tell between 9 and 15 people about their experience. About 13% of dissatisfied customers will even tell more than 20 people!…

    The Guardian story takes the profound view that a consumer revolution is changing the way we shop. The recent poor Tesco results might be a sign that we are even turning our backs on supermarket queues, spelling the end for the weekly shop, with more buying food daily from convenience stores, and consumers turning to the internet. Major retailers are already adapting for example Tesco’s chief executive has admitted that the power of out-of-town hypermarkets is waning, and the internet is now dictating strategies. Online spend in the UK in 2011 grew 16% growth on 2010. “Click and collect” is up, as is “mobile shopping”, with around 15% of Google search queries now go through mobile devices. John Lewis is said to be “really going after the mobile online sale” by inviting customers to do an in-store price match. Some industry-watchers predict more “dark stores” which are supermarkets where the public are banned, as staff fill trolleys for thousands of online orders. Retailers will be forced to compete heavily on delivery prices. “The home delivery market has been growing at double digits. It’s going to continue growing for the foreseeable future,” says one analyst. “Out-of-town hypermarkets are having less impact because people are buying online, and then they are topping up in convenience stores,” says another.…

    In the short essay, Types of Shoppers (2014), the student describes the three unusual types of shoppers that make her average supermarket cashier job a little more interesting. The student goes about her observations with identifying and listing the characteristics that describe the “amnesiac shopper” who is always forgetful, the “senior citizen shopper” who appears to just be looking for a way out of the house , and the “hot shopper” who is ill tempered and anal retentive. The author does this classification of customers in an everyday grocery store in order to entertain the reader of her conclusions and to let the reader become aware of these shoppers in their own environment. Given the informal writing and casual tone, the student is writing to the average person whom uses the supermarket.…

    In response to this statement, there needs to be consideration as to whether or not a consumer society, like the one we live in in the UK, is a divided one or not and if so then where these divisions are displayed. Therefore throughout this essay, I’m going to explore some potential divides within society, specifically looking at division between the rich and poor, able-bodied and less able, and lastly the division created between those who have power to influence where we shop and those that do not have as much power, drawing on the example of supermarkets vs. small shop keepers on the high street influencing the consumer public. I will be using ideas from social scientists such as Bauman and Susman to further illustrate my points. As I examine evidence on potential divisions I hope to conclude that the consumer society, in which we live in, is moreover a divided one.…

    With the proliferation and fragmentation of media, the marketing landscape has become much more complex. The good old days when marketers more or less had complete control over what consumers experienced via traditional offline and online push media and channels are long gone. That world has been replaced by one where these traditional channels now coexist with other, newer influences on the customer experience, some of which are outside the control and even the direct visibility of the marketer.…

    With increased adoption of smart phone technology, QR codes have become a common sight in recent years. QR codes now appear in television commercials, print ads, and in stores. In store locations vary from front windows, to dressing rooms, to product displays. These codes extend the shopping experience beyond the brick-and-mortar of a store (Carver and Matus, 2012). Stores offer an enhanced experience using the QR codes by linking to the store’s “app” that can be downloaded for an easier shopping experience for mobile users, incentives and sweepstakes opportunities, additional product information, or user instructions. “QR codes are a way to demonstrate being on trend and an edgy way for the consumer to connect with the store, while receiving some benefits” (Carver and Matus, 2012). The retailer also receives benefit from the consumer’s use of the QR code. Information regarding the consumer can easily be captured to better determine the retailer’s demographics and product preferences. Additionally, linking the QR code to social media can provide additional advertising opportunities to the retailer at a minimum cost.…
