There’s nothing like a racing heart just days before the start of the new school year, as the markets become a bustling place with parents racing to get their children ready. This year, we noticed a significant increase in the prices of aprons and school bags, and it had an impact on the psyche of shoppers.
Reasons for preferential purchase from local markets
Despite the wide spread of electronic stores, many citizens still prefer to buy directly from markets, and this is for several reasons:
Availability of suppliesEverything students need is under one roof. Presence of supplies in front of the eyeThe possibility of inspecting goods and verifying their quality. Availability of replacement: In case there is any defect or change of opinion. quality assurance: Trust in well-known stores. Avoid delay problemsDirect shopping saves waiting. The problem of sizes in online stores: Sometimes the sizes are not available or do not correspond to reality.
The new price reality in the markets
Despite the price increases, the markets noticed a great turnout, especially from women, and then children and youth. According to Al-Watan newspaper, the price of school aprons ranged between 85 and 100 riyals, while the prices of bags ranged between 55 and 99 riyals. . Despite the price hike, many consider the increase normal due to import costs and other logistical issues.
