Most people believe that prices are constantly rising, but in reality the cost of most consumer goods have been drastically falling over the past 10 years. Libby Potter crosses three continents to reveal how 'cheap' has changed the world.
In America she visits the busiest mall on earth - which can house 32 jumbo jets - and the small town where one store revoluntionised the way everything is now sold. In Europe she meets shopaholics and sees how one retailer totally transformed how we buy. She also goes shopping in the 'citadel of cheap', the largest wholesale market in the world, discovers why communist China no longer wants to be capitalism's low price manufacturing workshop and asks how long our addiction to cheap can last.
