But as you stated.........................slow vanishing memory.
OK, I remembered a little more about that. The under 25 age group MUST buy more than older established households, who have already purchased long-lasting items. The under 25 demography also are STYLE leaders, which influence and change the buying habits of the plus 25 age groups. So, advertisers key-in on that younger group.
