| Translated abstract: | RESUMEN El principal objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar, describir y comparar dos estrategias de precios muy utilizadas en el comercio minorista, la de precios altos y bajos y la de precios bajos todos los días, además de ofrecer un perfil tipo de clientes asiduos a cadenas minoristas con una u otra filosofía de precios.
