BROWN PRAGMATOX
Your compete MICRO*scope for today

You are the type of person who often opts not to make a purchase, even though it could be problematic down the road. Family and friends occasionally strap large packages to your back for no apparent reason. Today, you are likely to spend a great deal of time waiting for visits from door-to-door solicitors wanting to buy either a rechargeable battery for your computer or shoe laces for your snow boots. Be on the lookout for bottles of barbeque sauce that act TOO innocent. You should consider shopping at stores or businesses beginning with the letter V, but do not buy any products with a serial number or product code containing the number 498846. Your preferred shopping venue is thrift stores. Your special symbol is the comma (,).


Is this You?

As a Brown Pragmatox, you are down-to-earth and practical. You are hard working and industrious. You are frugal to the point that you might even refrain from making a purchase that you really, really need. Doing so often causes problems down the road. You definitely go with function over form and substance over style.


This isn't me! What am I?

Shopping Around For RETAIL PRICES

It's time for another one of our frequent stops at Mr. Market Super Food Discount Store, this time to check out the story behind retail prices. As consumers, we spend a large fraction of our nonworking, nonsleeping lives wandering grocery stores aisles, searching clothing store racks, and surveying department store displays for the right product at the right price. How do we know, like the name of the long-running game show, if "The Price is Right?" How are retail prices set and do they really tell us the value of a product?
