Can i use modifier in the middle of the sentence?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ margin-bottom:0;
}
Example: The chart shows the amount of money spent on consumer goods, including car and perfume, in France in 2010.
I usually use including at the end of the sentence, but is it grammatical correct if I modify consumer goods right in the middle of the sentence?

You can use this phrase in that position but car is a count noun so needs to be in the plural. With perfumes you have a choice.

The PP "including cars and perfume" is not modifying "goods", but is a supplement, outside the VP.
