| Abstract: | The purpose of this research is to contribute to the understanding of the grocery shopping behaviour of disadvantaged consumers. The research was conducted with a sample of consumers living in a deprived residental in Scotland. While the participants were mainly characterized as "economic shoppers", they were heavily dependent on the local convenience stores, due, mainly, to the financial and mobility restrictions they faced. The experience of "social exclusion" was not homogenous within the sample, varying with other aspects of disadvantage, including social support networks, illness, age, family situation and mobility. |
