articole de lux
Goods and services that have a high elasticity of demand. When the price of, say, a Caribbean holiday rises, the number of vacations demanded falls sharply. Likewise, demand for Caribbean holidays rises significantly as average income increases, certainly by more than demand for many normal goods. Contrast this with necessities, such as milk or bread, which people usually demand in quite similar quantities whatever their income and whatever the price.
