Below we offer just a taste of what you’ll find in our 2019 Holiday Preview.
We surveyed thousands of Christmas celebrants across the country about their upcoming holiday shopping and consumption. Here are just five “sneak peek” insights:
More than half of Christmas shoppers surveyed (52%) said they’re completely likely to purchase at least one gift online this Christmas, while only 4% said they’re not very likely or not at all likely.
Our 2019 Holiday Preview will examine the top online retailers and gift-purchases among Christmas shoppers. It’ll also consider the role of mobile apps and store pickup in holiday shopping.
Among Christmas celebrants in our survey, 61% said they’re completely or very likely to drink coffee on Christmas Day/Eve this year, while 54% are equally likely to partake in alcohol.
The full report will shed light on the top coffee and alcohol brands of the holidays while providing additional insight on beverages like soda.
We asked parents to tell us what gifts their sons and daughters are most likely to receive this Christmas. In all, 80% of daughters and 69% of sons are expected to open packages containing clothes and/or non-digital, wearable accessories like jewelry.
The complete report will go into greater detail about the gifts kids will be receiving this year, including video games, art/creative supplies, dolls, action figures, games, cosmetics, fragrances, and more.
