Condoms, hair gel count for more on isle of love
Fri Nov 25, 8:52 AM ET
NICOSIA (Reuters) - Condoms, hair gel and waxing are so much a part of Cypriot life that
statisticians will from January count them among 150 new products and services used to calculate
the monthly consumer price index.
Authorities are revising the list to better reflect household spending patterns in the Mediterranean country
nicknamed the island of Aphrodite for the Greek goddess of love and beauty.
Quizzed about the inclusion of condoms, a statistics official told Reuters on Thursday: "It was one of those items
which was always under-represented by households so we got the data from the importers."
The new costs include condoms, hair gel, waxing to remove unwanted hair and medication to treat erectile
dysfunction along with zivania, a strong alcoholic beverage whose production was once banned,
the newspaper Phileleftheros said
