Christmas Spending in the US

December 19, 2016 by Lazy Man 3 Comments

We down to single digit days before Christmas. I saw this infographic and had a few thoughts:

Christmas Spending in the United States - Avant
Provided by Avant

  1. It’s probably not a surprise, but I’m in the 90% of shoppers who haven’t completed their shopping. It is mid-December.
  2. My reason for not completing fall in the 28.8% of not being given ideas by loved ones. However, I can’t throw stones in my glass house as I haven’t given many ideas for loved ones. It seems more and more difficult to find material objects that provide value to me. On the plus side, I avoided the 20% of being too lazy. If I can do that, you can too.
  3. When I look at the presents that people want, it becomes more clear to me why I can’t figure out what to ask for.
  4. I think I’m far below the $830 amount spent on gifts, but I’m not sure how that is tabulated. Is it the total that I spent for my wife and half of what I spent for the kids (with the other half being from my wife)? That seems to be the most natural way to do it.
  5. The best tips are buried at the end… how to reduce spending over xmas. Make Time would be the most important thing for me.
