I'd add underwear, pantyhose, lotions, and makeup. Cheapies on those never work out well. For comfort's sake, we should seek out the best we can afford... @Jeremy—Excellent and hilarious examples!

I recall the story of a online jewelry store that couldn't sell anything and right before quitting the owner tripled her prices because nothing else worked. She never had trouble selling her jewelry after that. Tattoos, surgery, chocolate are all things that quality trumps price on most occasions.

I tend to be cost-conscious, if not price-focused, and it is a mistake to assume that my customers will be, too. And actually, when there's something I want bad enough, the cost isn't enough to stop me. I may pause to scrounge change from the couch cushions and my other magical cash reserves ;) , but I'll persevere to have it, no matter the price. Thoughtful post...thanks!

I hope everyone has heard the horror stories of someone getting a "Chinese character" that says something embarrassing. I also think it's important to remember that if you do advertise "Big Discounts" you will attract customers that are more interested in the discount than the product, which is probably not the clientèle most business folks are looking for.
