How to initialize variables in ActiveRecord class? Variables here is the variables that are outside the scope of database

such as:

class Product
  attr_accessor :used
end

I want to initially assign @used initially to false, later if some person access the product, i will change @used to true

First i thought of putting @used=false in initialize method, but it does not get called.
