New research has shed some light on the nation’s Christmas shopping habits, and the results are quite startling. It appears that a staggering one in five adults in the UK have already started their Christmas shopping, with many more set to follow suit in the coming weeks.
But the question on everyone’s lips is: just how much are people willing to spend on presents for their loved ones this year? The answer may surprise you. According to the survey, the average adult in the UK plans to spend a whopping £500 on Christmas gifts alone.
But that’s not all - the research also revealed that parents are set to splash out even more on their little ones, with the average child expected to receive gifts worth a staggering £200. That’s a lot of presents under the tree! And it doesn’t stop there - partners are also set to receive a generous £150 worth of gifts, making this Christmas one to remember.
But what about the rest of the family? The survey found that other relatives, such as grandparents and siblings, are also set to receive a sizeable chunk of the festive budget, with the average person planning to spend around £50 on each of them.
So, what does all this add up to? The total festive spend per household is expected to be a staggering £1,500 - a sum that’s sure to put a dent in many people’s bank accounts. But despite the cost, many of us are willing to splash out to make this Christmas one to remember.
So, how do your Christmas shopping habits stack up against the rest of the nation? Are you a keen early bird who’s already got all your presents wrapped up, or are you more of a last-minute shopper? Either way, one thing’s for sure - this Christmas is set to be a pricey one, but also a whole lot of fun.
