Household care items are widely used, with laundry detergents and fabric softeners (64%) leading the category, followed by cleaning agents and disinfectants (49%) and dishwashing products (44%), which are essential for hygiene and cleanliness.

Air fresheners (41%) and insecticides/pest control (30%) also see notable use, particularly in urban environments.

Paper products (7%), such as toilet paper and paper towels, are less commonly purchased, possibly due to affordability or availability.

Only 8% of respondents reported not purchasing any products in this category.
