A new Groupon holiday survey of 1,000 people found that consumers (more than 80%) plan to spend more on experiences this holiday season. While a majority of survey respondents (63%) are concerned about the impact of inflation, the vast majority of shoppers (eight out of 10) said they will spend the same amount or more on gifts for their family and friends, and themselves, than they did in 2021.
“Groupon Day is back and bigger than ever! Inflation is top of mind with consumers and they are kicking off the holiday shopping season earlier than ever to find the unique gifts at the affordable values they need to make holiday wishes come true. Groupon has amazing deals to help shoppers stretch their hard-earned dollars and unlock the magic of the holiday season with gifts of experiences that will be remembered long after they are unwrapped,” said Melanie Hellenga, Groupon’s Vice President of Brand and Performance Marketing. “According to our research, experiences such as concerts, sporting events, museum passes, beauty and wellness services and treatments and travel packages continue to dominate shopping lists this holiday season. This is also a big time of year for our merchants offering those experiences, and we’re excited to also help connect shoppers to local businesses they can support in their communities.”
“Groupon Day’s benefits extend beyond just gifting. Nearly 60% of shoppers told us they plan to treat themselves to more gifts this holiday season, and our Groupon Day deals will be great opportunities for them to indulge. In addition, Groupon Day will have discounts on numerous services that we all use in our everyday lives from beauty services and treatments that keep you looking and feeling your best to oil changes before any big road trips to see family and friends –– all for great values. There is something for everyone this year during Groupon Day and we can’t wait to help our customers kick off the holiday season.”
