Test results: Retired households/households living <strong>on</strong> welfare use promoti<strong>on</strong>s more than<br />

average. But households in which the shopping resp<strong>on</strong>sible pers<strong>on</strong> has a paid job are the most<br />

promoti<strong>on</strong> resp<strong>on</strong>sive.<br />

Both households in which the shopping resp<strong>on</strong>sible pers<strong>on</strong> has a paid job and retired<br />

households and households living <strong>on</strong> welfare use promoti<strong>on</strong>s above average. Working<br />

shopping resp<strong>on</strong>sible households even use promoti<strong>on</strong>s more than retired households<br />

(results are not reported). School going shoppers are found to be the least promoti<strong>on</strong><br />

resp<strong>on</strong>sive. Whether these findings still hold when we distinguish between in-store and out<str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g>-store<br />

promoti<strong>on</strong>s is investigated using the outcomes presented in Table 7.12.<br />
