Summary/Abstract: The subject of this article is an analysis of the results of research which were conducted among students from the Visegrad Countries. This is part of a larger research project which explored issues related to the economic awareness of the young generation. The attitude to shopping and to consumption in general is one of the elements that create the economic awareness. The author will present the conclusions about students’ consumer attitudes. These attitudes – contrary to popular opinion – as the results of this research has shown are quite rational. The young generation has a rational attitude to consumption and adjusts the scope, frequency, and ways of meeting their various needs to the resources and capabilities which they have.
