If you are about to head out for some last minute gift buying, and on your list are gals, daughters or granddaughters, you may or may not be surprised to learn that on average  just shopping for a girl will cost you 7% more.

What is equally disturbing is that since 1992 not much has changed – we are still the more expensive sex.

This study of 800 products has been narrowed to 5 for a short quiz.  See how good your shopping skills are.

Are we really worth 7% more, are the products more expensive to produce or we are simply willing to pay more so the manufacturers get a profit bonus?
