At a retail store, observe the behavior of the shoppers as they come and go. In general, would you characterize their movement as:
• hurried or relaxed?
• distracted or focused?
• continuing the shopping trip or heading to exits?
• alone or with others?
• empty-handed or carrying purchases?
Note the time of day, day of the week, and month. In what way do you believe temporal situational influences are playing a part in consumers' behavior as you describe using the points above? Response should be no less than one page.
