7-Eleven Says Consumers Have Changed
7-Eleven's CEO Joe DePinto says that customer habits are changing. They are penny pinching during economically difficult times. Here's how they are adjusting:
Why buy a six-pack of beer when an 18 pack can make one feel better during dark times and its cheaper per beer?
Mountain Dew's big gulp of jolt is in. Expensive energy drinks are out.
The 62-cent federal cigarette tax that kicked in April 1 have made pack-a-day customers become a pack every-three-day customers. But they are still getting their smoke. 7-Eleven says smoke rising from backyard grills is way up. Aaaahh!
