Model Answer

This violates the Right to Choice. The consumer is forced to buy an unwanted product (toothbrush), denying them the freedom to choose what they wish to purchase.

Explanation

The Right to Choice guarantees consumers the freedom to access a variety of goods at competitive prices without being compelled to buy something they don't want. Tying the sale of one product to another (called a "tied sale") is an unfair trade practice under COPRA. Examiners expect you to name the right and briefly state the harm — both in one line for 1 mark.
