Travel, food, furniture, fashion, lifestyles: many things have been invested by the “low cost” system over the past 30 years. On the one hand the perception of the possibilities of consumption has increased, on the other hand quality has decreased, introducing especially in the so called Western society a “purchasing bulimia”.<\/p>\n

However, what we want to talk about today is not the global economy and its complex dynamics, but we will focus on a recent trend change: paradoxically in a period of crisis, recession and slow recovery of the world economies, frugality has become the new luxury and a new choice of better lifestyles.<\/p>\n

Let’s discover together how and why new frugal life choices become consumer luxury choices.
\nContradiction in terms? Not at all. Here we’ll tell you why.<\/p>\n

Food: if it is true that we are what we eat<\/h3>\n

The economic boom, the spasmodic increase of hypermarkets and supermarkets, have long taken us away from old city shops.
\nThanks to more competitive prices and the possibility of buying (therefore consuming but also wasting) more, the trend towards low-cost food has in fact also had consequences on consumer health.<\/p>\n

Today, finally, consumers who choose the organic and bio dynamic food, the supportive purchase and the small city shops return to be critical mass and to direct the market.<\/p>\n

The message of “luxury frugality” becomes clear: it’s far better to spend more on quality food, produced in an ethical way for the environment and for health, even eliminating the unnecessary foods; accepting a slightly higher consumer price is equivalent to understanding its greatest health, economic and social value.<\/p>\n
