The first 1 or 2 digits of CP_CODE refers to the ORDER of the POPSCAT - that is,
the outlets identified for the first POPSCAT in the PSU (regardless of whether it is in

PSU will begin with a "10." (The maximum value for the first 2 digits is "16".)
If a POPSCAT is in sample, but no outlets are identified for that POPSCAT, the
order-identifier for that POPSCAT will not be used - that is, if no outlets are identified
for the third POPSCAT in sample, no CP_CODE will begin with the number "3."
If a POPSCAT in the PSU is not in sample for the case, the order-identifier for that
POPSCAT will not be used. For example, if the random number for a case excludes
the fourth POPSCAT, no CP_CODE will begin with the number "4."

Your answers are very important to this survey because your phone number
was selected randomly. Your household's purchases represent the
purchases of many similar households. It would cost too much and take too
long to call all households in the U.S. We cannot select another phone
number because it would harm the quality of the information we collect.

Question Text: Uses of the Consumer Price IndexThe Consumer Price Index is a measure
of the average change in the prices paid by urban consumers for a fixed market
basket of goods and services.
The Consumer Price Index is commonly used as: 1. A measure of
inflation. 2. An economic indicator. The President, the Congress, and
the Federal Reserve use trends in the Consumer Price Index to aid in
formulating fiscal and monetary policies. In addition, businesses, labor
organizations and private citizens use the index as a guide in making economic
decisions.3. A means of adjusting income payments. Adjustments to
wages, Social Security Pay- ments, retirement bene-fits and other
compen-sation such as child support and payments received by millions of
Americans are based on changes in the Consumer Price Index. 4. An
adjustment factor for tax brackets (indexing) to prevent ‘bracket creep'
due to inflation.

Telephone Point of Purchase Survey is to provide the Bureau of Labor
Statistics with a list of outlets (stores) where consumers buy the goods and
services asked about during the interview. The Bureau of Labor Statistics uses
data from of the Telephone Point of Purchase Survey, along with data from
three other surveys to adjust the Consumer Price Index, which is a leading
measure of inflation that indicates the cost of living in our country. We
can send you a pamphlet describing the Consumer Price Index and how people
use it. The TPOPS survey collects the stores and service establishments
mentioned in Chapter 8 of that pamphlet.

Question Text: Why do we ask race and ethnicity questions? In October 1997, the
Office of Management and Budget, or OMB, issued Standards for Maintaining,
Collecting, and Presenting Federal Data on Race and Ethnicity. These
guidelines state that race and ethnicity are separate and distinct concepts and
should be collected in different questions. The standards are available on the
Internet at www.whitehouse.gov/omb/fedreg/1997standards.html. All
federal agencies, including the Census Bureau, which collect and report data
on race and ethnicity, must follow these standards. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics uses the data from the TPOPS survey to produce a sample of retail
stores and service establishments that is then used to price goods and
services for the Consumer Price Index. The race and ethnicity questions are
asked to ensure that the survey shows no bias regarding any ethnic group and
that the shopping habits of the whole population are represented.

Question Text: Outlet Type
The key to selecting the correct outlet type at screen CP_OLTYP is to
determine HOW you entered into the ""contract"", either express or implied, to
purchase the item or service.
SELECT (1) PERSONAL VISIT, if you made a personal visit to the
store/business/outlet and either paid for the item at the store or made
arrangements there to finance the purchase.
SELECT (2) MAIL ORDER, if you filled out a mail-order form and mailed the
form to the vendor.
SELECT (3) TELEPHONE ORDER, if you ordered the item over the telephone
by calling the vendor, or by sending the request order by fax. This includes
food items that are delivered to the home, if the order was placed over the
telephone (for example Pizza Delivery).
SELECT (4) INTERNET, if you filled out a form on an Internet web site or
company home page and submitted the order electronically over the Internet or
via e mail. (This is true, even if the company is located outside the U.S.)
SELECT (5) PRIVATE INDIVIDUAL, if the outlet name is a person's name (e.g.,
Joe Smith) and is not connected to a business. (This is true, even in cases
where the contract was made by personal visit or over the telephone.) Precode
(5) Private Individual has priority and should be selected if the outlet name is a
person and not a business.
One exception: If the outlet name is a doctor or medical physician's name
(e.g., Dr. Joe Smith), then Precode (5) should not be selected. Assume doctors
have offices or make house calls and are ""normally"" in business, so Precode
(1) Personal Visit or Precode (3) Telephone should be selected.
SELECT (6) PUBLIC SALE, if the outlet name given by the respondent

Blaise Item-Level Specif
Spide
contains the phrase "public sale", "garage sale", "yard sale", "estate sale",
"swap meet", or "auction". (This is true, even in cases where the contract was
made by personal visit.) Precode (6) Public Sale has priority and should be
selected if you know the purchase was made at a public sale.
If you are not sure if the purchase was made at a public sale (and the outlet
name does not give an indication), Precode (1) Personal Visit should be
selected.
SELECT (7) LOCATION OUTSIDE OF THE U.S., if the outlet is located outside
the U.S., unless it is an Internet outlet. Precode (7) Location Outside the U.S.
has priority and should be selected if the outlet is located outside the United
States. (This is true, even in cases where the contract was made by personal
visit, mail order, or telephone.)
