They sell all the time tho!

Unfortunately, no one actually pays for them though. Undertakers around the country are owed a fortune. They often don't get paid until the estate gets settled - which can take years. No I'm not in the business, but a buddy of mine is.

Chocolate

Smack

One way tickets

Comfort foods. My friend's dad runs a bakery making various cakes / buns / pastries / sweet bakery products for large supermarkets, the recession has been there most successful period yet in terms of profit.

When my parents died, their bank account was frozen but the expenses arising from their funerals (they died within 4 weeks of each other

) were able to be released.

Anyway, my answer :
toilet paper
needle and thread
secondhand clothes
Argos or Tesco own brand stuff

Tinned food, and any non perishables. Coal, and sales in pennys would be up, and the people that turned their snouts up at charity shops in better times have had a re-think.

Nappies judging by this recession baby boom!

While this may be true, they're now opting for the shops own brand in nappies or them cloth jobbies. As for the formula, cheaper versions will be bought, and sales in the ready made stuff and jars of food will take a tumble.

When things are going well, people get lazy, and stupid with their money. I'm willing to bet a lot of people are regretting what the spent their SSIA's on..

When people go back to cloth nappies, the recession will have hit very hard indeed!

Or perhaps more will be breastfeeding.

I somehow can't see a return to cloth nappies and plastic pants, own brand nappies are much cheaper and harder to justify the toil of washing and drying nappies (though I did it myself for 2 years....)

Dry cleaners do well.
I think shoe repairs do well too.

Brand name goods tend to be a bit recession proof because too many corners get cut by the "me toos" in a race to the bottom.
Coca Cola are still shifting gallons of the stuff.
