Crappy Enconomy Recession Proof Items Include Chocolate, Spam, Laxitives and Condoms...

USA Today ran an article today showing what products are actually doing well in this economy. Some might not surprise you like Chocolate & Wine/Beers (consumed at home, not out at bars or restaurants) as they help soothe the bad economy blows for some, but laxatives? I suppose when nervous, you might have a nauseous stomach?

Other recession resistant items include running shoes, gold coins, safes to store those gold coins and Match.com memberships. I guess they say misery loves company...

Anyway, the article is pretty interesting and worth checking out. Oh and for the record, I just bought a new pair of running shoes and have been stocking up on cheap (under $10) wines... but passed on the Spam.
