IF everyone really boycott, will the prices decrease?

[N4E.SI]

I know in reality wont happen cos SG got many rich elites, FTs and tourists.

But I am just imagining a scenario if everyone really stop patronizing a certain foodcourt or curry puff (for example), say their business drop by 90% in 1 day.... after a week or two will they revise their prices downwards?

They will start by closing branches with decreasing sales first. Dun think they will reduce prices, maybe next year they will not increase them if sales all over their branches drop

If the margin is really thin and the stall is dependent on volume-sales, boycotting it will cause it to close down.

If the stall is really profiteering with obscene margins, will the owner ngeh ngeh, stubborn, ego, refuse to give way to the market, demand side? That depends on the person.

I guess is not everyone is united to face against the business.

Some people who can afford will still go eat and pay. These people don't care whether the rest can afford or not.

Just spend within your means. Tighten up belts, interest rates are decent anyway.
