In view of the upcoming start of the school year , with the aim of better informing consumers, the Consumer Protection Service has completed a survey to collect data regarding the retail price levels of consumer products used for student equipment.
The survey concerns the prices valid on 29/7/2024, in a total of 16 points of sale (bookstores, supermarkets, department stores, clothing stores) operating in all provinces and includes products that are the most common for school preparation of students.
The publication of this Observatory is a useful information tool for the consumer, strengthening his ability to conduct market research and make the most beneficial purchases for him. In addition, it adds more transparency to the overall picture of the market and helps promote competition.

The Consumer Protection Service clarifies that Price Observatories are prepared solely for the purpose of assistance/general information to consumers and do not in any way constitute advice. The Price Monitors are not intended and cannot replace the market research that each consumer must do based on their own preferences, data and needs, nor are they intended to indicate to consumers which points of sale they will choose.
Especially for the products included in this Observatory, it is emphasized that there are qualitative differences which cannot be taken into account in the results of a Price Observatory. For this purpose, the Consumer Protection Service urges consumers to do substantial market research before proceeding with purchases, in order to find the products and prices that meet their requirements.
