Well excuse me, I'm conducting a survey about buying behavior. Would you have a few minutes to answer questions about buying candy? Sure. I'll just take about three minutes. Okay. Okay, great. How often do you buy a chocolate bar? Well, I try not to buy too much chocolate. Maybe. I'd say if I had a chocolate bar about twice a week.Do you usually buy a regular chocolate or a premium chocolate? Oh, premium definitely. When I buy. How much do you think is a reasonable amount to pay for chocolate? Two, three, or four dollars? Well, about four dollars, I would say.
And do you ever buy chocolate to give it as a gift to someone? Sure. But how often do you think? About once a month? Okay. And for a gift, do you buy a bar or a box? A gift box.
All right. And how much would you typically spend for a box of chocolates to give as a gift? $25, $35, $15. $25. Great. I don't think so much for your time. I'd like to give you one of our reindeer chocolate bars for helping us out.
Awesome. Thank you. You're welcome. What did they learn about this consumer? Can you complete the following sentences based on the interview? Buy the chocolate bar once or twice a week. Usually, buy premium chocolate. Spends as much as $4 per bar. Give someone a box of chocolates about four or five times a year. Probably spends about $25 a box.
