Answer 1

In short, consumer awareness is basically for consumers' rights and at times their obligations as well. Legally also, this aspect of consumer awareness has been dealt in appropriately in Sale of Goods Act, besides setting up of consumer courts at various levels.

If the consumers are well aware or take due precautions, most of the inconvenience, hassles, losses and litigations can be avoided or eliminated. If the consumer take the things for granted, the seller may take advantage of the situation and unpleasantness occurs. Even if you have been cheated or devoid of your rights inspite of your reasonable precaution, one should be aware of the course of action available for remedy.

Thus, the consumer awareness would bring value for your money in the very first place and ultimately improved quality of life eliminating poor quality products and poor service/after sales service from manufacturers and sellers.

Answer 2

It is important for a number of reasons:

1. To have knowledge of what your buying before you buy it
2. To make informed decisions when you make big purchases (versus blindly buying something after asking a salesperson whose probably only out to make a sale - not out for your best interests)
3. To not sound like an idiot when friends or relatives ask your opinion on something.

Consumer Reports is THE BEST magazine for consumer awareness hands down.
