What is Consumer
Misbehaviour?
• “Behavioural acts by consumers which violate the
generally accepted norms of conduct in consumption
situations and thus disrupt the consumption order”
(Fullerton and Punj, 2004)
• A jayconsumer is someone who (Lovelock, 1994):
• Does not pay for goods or does not pay the full price
• Breaks the rules of consumer-organisation interaction (e.g.
queue-jumping)
• Vandalises company property or equipment
• Fails to pay for goods or services just due to lack of
concern or interest

Motivations for
Misbehaviour
• Inability to fulfil consumption goals through
legitimate means
• Misbehaving perceived as a thrilling experience
• An absence of moral constraint
• Misbehaviour perceived as a way of promoting a
group’s identity
• Certain situational factors (e.g. crowding, unsettling
amount of heat and noise) can contribute
• Some engage in rational weighing of the risks and
rewards associated

Consumer Boycotts
Better the devil you know
Following a stream of public relations disasters over the past two
decades, brand owners have taken to sitting round the table to
engage with those who campaign against their activities
Greenpeace jumped at the chance of
influencing the environmental policies of
companies such as McDonald’s and Shell and
have worked closely with the organisations to
achieve this.
Other campaigners warn against getting too
close to the targeted corporations, saying
protests will be weakened by too much
familiarity.

Fullerton and Punj (2004): returning goods such as clothing or DIY tools after
one use only in order to get a refund.
Switching of price tags in an attempt to get an item for much less than should
be paid for it.
Daspin (2000): driving away from a petrol station without paying…. leaving a
restaurant without paying.
Failing to own up to a cashier’s error and leaving with more change than is due.
Is there a continuum, for you, along which is a point where its so trivial its not
