Thanks for taking the survey!
The response was so fast, that I smashed through my Basic Survey Monkey limit (1oo votes) in no time, and this is what I got 🙂

Looks like the following were in the 50% range:
- cellphone
- high-speed internet
- home computer
- car
- ..and microwave came in fifth, at a low 23%
Interesting. Guess we’re all a bunch of geeks 😉
My guess is that most respondents consider a necessity anything that "I need to perform my work duties, get to work, or search for a job."
Cellphone? More like smartphone with expensive data plans. I hate lifestyle inflation.
I'm surprised the number for the landline phone was so low. I'm guessing it was mostly people in cities who answered your survey, as the service for those of us in more rural areas is often unreliable. (I only live 5 minutes south of the 401, but our service is still touch and go!) I wouldn't go without a landline ever.
