The Top People on Our Last-Minute Shopping List
December 15, 2023 3:00PM EST
We’re about nine days from Christmas, so how’s your holiday shopping coming along?
In a new survey, 89% of Americans say they’ve bought gifts for people at the VERY last minute. And not surprisingly, those are usually NOT for your significant other–or you wouldn’t admit to it (probably more likely, let’s be real here).
32% of people have bought last-minute gifts for friends.
27% have gone down to the wire to get gifts for extended family. And 17% say they’ve shopped late for their siblings.
13% of people say they have run out to get small, last-minute gifts for postal carriers and trash collectors, and 5% have picked up a present for their kids’ teachers, right before the school’s holiday break.
