This means that swimsuits will be cheaper in the winter. In the summer, a lot of people need swimsuits. This high demand causes swimsuits to cost full price. On a really hot day, ice cream will cost full price because lots of people want a cool treat. An ice cream store might have a sale on a cold day because the demand for ice cream will be lower.
