Elasticity determines if a change in price will affect your demand for the product. Elastic Demand  with a small price change you will buy much less of a good. A consumer with highly elastic demand for a good is very responsive/sensitive to price changes.

Demand for a good that you will keep buying despite a price increase. Inelastic Demand  states that a change in price does not affect your demand for the product. A consumer with highly inelastic demand for a good is relatively unresponsive to price changes.
