Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Off-price chains and membership clubs typically have lower merchandise continuity, meaning that they may carry a constantly changing selection of products. They also tend to engage in opportunistic buying, meaning that they take advantage of deals and discounts to buy merchandise to sell at a lower price to customers. Variety stores and retail catalog showrooms may have lower merchandise continuity, but they generally do not engage in opportunistic buying to the same extent as off-price chains and membership clubs. Superstores may have higher merchandise continuity and may not engage in as much opportunistic buying as off-price chains and membership clubs.
