    • The rolling-in approach effected significant cost and time savings. Rolling-in the new areas into the CPI allowed more time to train field representatives. More importantly, using the existing procedures for introducing new outlet samples on a systematic basis precluded the need to maintain dual operations, one for the current CPI and one for the revised index.
