The Seventh Trivial Pursuit Catch Up Thread
dudette Wrote:Investopedia Says... This term was coined by Leonard Lauder (chairman of Estee Lauder), who consistently found that during tough economic times, his lipstick sales went up.

It's the theory that lipstick sales (and the sale of other inexpensive indulgences) increase prior to and during a recession.

What sports figure owns the trademark rights to the word three-peat?
