For instance, some people (Convenience Shopper ) love shopping at one particular store and will only switch stores when a product is outrageously expensive, while other people

(Bargain Shopper ) will gladly pend hours looking through new paper advertisements earching for the be t deal.

a. When both kinds of people, the Convenience hopper and the Bargain Shopper , are hopping at the same W al-Mart, who i more likely to tick to their prearranged hopping list, and who is more likely to plurge on a little something?

b. Which group doe W al-Mart have monopoly power over? Which group does W al-Mart have no monopoly power over?

c. Does this mean that the same shop can si multaneously be a "monopolist" to some customers and a "competitive firm" to other customers? Why or why not?

d. Does this mean that Darth Vader really did kill Anakin Skywalker?
